how do you stop Windows Automatic Updates?

Answer 1

XP
right click my computer, lrft click on update tab, uncheck box

Answer 2

To stop Windows Automatic Updates go to the Control Panel, click on Security Center (from the Classic View*) and then click on Automatic Updates and turn them off there.

I would still check for updates on a regular basis as they are sometimes critical to keeping your system safe.

* Click on "Switch to Classic View" in the column at the left.

Answer 3

Like every1 else said. Start Menu-Control Panel- Automatic Updates-Check Off. Lol auto updates suck..

Answer 4

Start > Control Panel > System > Automatic Updates tab and turn them off. Don't know why you want to though.

Answer 5

Start, Control Panel, Security Center, scroll down and click on Automatic Updates, then pick how you want it.

Answer 6

1. Well, Rootkit... don't use it. 2. Don't stop Automatic update (unless you have unlicensed copy of Windows) 3. Your PC seems have kind of memory problem (RAM), thus, most probably you need to change them. However, if your PC is still under warranty, you may go back to the service center and they will take care of it. Otherwise, the blue screen needs an expert. But, 90% of the cases its related to memory hardware problem. Good Luck!!!
