how to go about removing or re-installing (many) Windows Updates
I'm at this stage where I am utterly convinced I have far too many updates on my system. Does anyone get this? When things start going wrong, is it right to suspect that an update has broken my operating system, utilities or applications?
If I could uninstall Windows monthly patches to prove myself wrong! What is my likely chances of success? How would I go about this?
In the remote past, I have only uninstalled about six patches at a time via the system protection feature. Whereas uninstalling the complete history of patches would take considerable effort. Yet, I am convinced the effort would be gratifying. Does that sound sensible?
Is there a ready-made tutorial , or can we conceive of what such tutorial would look like?
Where would you begin? Uninstall all unpdates by writting a single batch file? Uninstall monthly or yearly patches , either ascending or descending order? Online or offline? Uninstall security updates before system and office patches, or vice versa?
I have a file of all Updates, Security Updates and Hotfixes installed. The List is around 300 lines long. The Windows 7 Convenience Roll- up is about 120 lines long.
