    Windows Update


    Windows keep wanting me to update the software for a Brother printer I haven"t had for a long time. When I got rid of the printer I uninstalled all references to it, at least I thought I did. Is there a way to keep this from continually happening?

    Hi Debacle1, welcome to 7F :)

    For the time being go to windows update and hide the update for the software.
    There is also a tutorial to fix a repeatedly offered update.

    When you have the time you can use this to clean up any references to the old Brother printer:
    Drivers - Clean Left over Files after Uninstalling

    The free Revo uninstaller is also good to use.
