| | how to turn off specific updates Hi there. With XP, I could tell the system not to remind me again of certain updates to my system that I didn't want. I haven't found a way to do that in Windows 7. It keeps bringing up a certain set of updates (related to Windows Live). So I skip out of it. How can I tell it not to bring them up again? Thanks for your help. |

| | Go to All Programs, Windows update, Change settings. There you can change the drop down to check for updates but let me choose........... that should do it ! |

| | If you right click on a specific update there should be an option to hide it. once you do that it will stop showing up/nagging you to install it. to get it back you just click the "Restore hidden updates" option. |

| | Glad to help. That can be annoying, be reminded you haven't installed, something you don't want. |
