    Windows 7 How to exclude (forever) certain (but not all) updates from installation?

    Assume I enabled auto-update resp. search manually for updates of my 64bit Win 7 Pro system. How can I exclude certain updates (e.g. KB3035583 as one example) forever from being installed? Is there an exclusion list file which is accepted by built-in Windows Update Service? Peter
