    Disabling Windows Updates!!!!!!!!!!!! Update 1903 Choking Brand New Computer


    Ok, first off! It should be illegal for Microsoft to NOT ALLOW users to disable updates. I have 2 laptops on Windows 8 that have had updates disabled and the computers have worked FLAWLESSLY FOR 6 YEARS.


    On Windows 10 the user DOES NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO DISABLE WINDOWS UPDATES!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Update 1903 is constantly trying to complete and I have taken every step I know of to disable the updates and it is ignored by Microsoft.


    Why is Microsoft not allowing users to disable their updates?!!!!!!!!

    :)

    Windows updates...

    Oh. Your "Registry" must have gotten screwed up FLY3R. If for some reason you couldn't download your updates I suppose you could go to the update site, and run throught the steps 'till it fails activation. Then you could go up to "Tools > Manage Add ons > then disable "Windows Genuine Advatage Validation Tool." Of course you should only use this method if you are having problems updating your legitamate copy of Windows XP. Perhaps do to a corrupted piece of software? *Smile Disabling Windows Updates!!!!!!!!!!!! Update 1903 Choking Brand New Computer :)

    Disabling Windows Updates!!!!!!!!!!!! Update 1903 Choking Brand New Computer

    Windows 8 failure configuring updates and reverting

    I agree 8 is awful! It's not for me though... I replaced a broken screen in a Win 8 laptop that was given to me and I am going to give it for free to someone that can't afford one so they can do homework at home. Yes I took it from 8 to 8.1 back on 10/09/2014. This is what I posted there...

    "Great post! I found a similar one. I would like to point out that you may want to edit your OP...

    1. Step 1 should read to disable AUTOMATIC updates, not disable manual updates.

    2. KB2871398 should really read KB2871389

    I would like to say that KB2917499 may also be needed as it was in my case. I also had to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter after installing those 2 updates. After these steps I was able to begin my 8.1 download from the Microsoft store. I don't know if it made a difference or not, but I also went into the Bios and disabled "Secure Boot."

    It was a helpful post. Thanks!
