remove all windows updates

[mort101]

hello i just wondering if you can remove all of the windows 7 updates all in one go and not one at a time ? if not looks like a reinstall of windows LOL

You cannot remove all Windows updates at once. And some updates cannot be removed at all. Why do you want to do this?

LMiller7, I suspect our friend's Windows 7 ran afoul of one or two WUs that went down like Castrol Oil rather than Castor Oil. I had something similar happen to me - fixed via a restore of a recent OS partition full image backup.

Try to uninstall and re-install camera software.
Re-boot and try again.
Security updates never overly effected hardware.

bin they try that still no joy but thx any way its sum thing being block between the cam and any thing that works on the net so i think it must have bin one of windows security updates that did it but i dont know which one so looks like a reinstall

@ mort101. You need to keep in mind that if you do a Windows reinstall you will have to run all the updates again & that can takes a long time.

Then you will have to reinstall any software programs that you have as well, including your web cam. So you need to give a reinstall serious thought. If you don't have activation codes for other installed software, they will not work.
