Hello, I have some mini-PC problems, it started when Windows 10 kept pushing updates to flood my 32gb hard drives to a mere 100 mb's in my Asus VivoSticks TS10 making them inoperable. I had to keep deleting updates everyday and could not shut down the automatic updates in the policies no matter...

I upgraded to Windows 11 and found it to be pretty annoying. I rolled back to Windows 10 using the "go back" function. It reverted, but immediately downloaded Windows 11 and now wants to reboot to upgrade to 11 again. I cannot find any way to prevent this. I paused windows update while I search...
As well known by default Win10 allows only to defer Feature Updates but not to block them (forever).
However there are some 3rd party tools which allow to block them anyway e.g.
- StopWinUpdates
- Wu10Man
- StopUpdates10
- Sordum Update Blocker
- Windows Update MiniTools
- .....
However it...
The April 2018 upgrade of Win10 stopped SolidWorks from wotking but fortunately i had cloned the HD and managed to recover SW. I was running Win 10 Home but have just upgraded to Win 10 Pro and stopped the upgrades through Group Policies but without success. I have also tried numerous other...

My situation is this. I have an 11 year old laptop. This is now ONLY used as a display for a weather station, using a proprietary Windows XP application, so I am not interested in any new Windows features that 1803 might bring. Nevertheless up until now I have let all upgrades proceed.
Now...

When I first got my PC I got it all set up the way I liked it then created a system image. I then followed every guide I can find on the internet to disable auto update and telemetry. This worked great for about a year until today. I went to turn off my PC and boom there it was, "Restart and...

Me again,
I have a new Win7 Pro machine. It appears it's only updated to SP-1.
Yesterday I asked it to check for updates. It returned 'Checking for Updates'. It was still checking for updates when I went to bed with no result. Other machines would come back with the number and type of...

I hate Windows 10 updating and restarting machines automatically, although in "advanced options" I have selected "notify to schedule restart".
Is there a way to stop this?
I had the exciting "Video displayed stopped and has recovered" happening since upgrading to Windows 10. I uninstalled that, went to the ASUS site and downloaded the one dated July of 2014. After doing that, the annoying message of the Video display stopping and recovering stopped.
Then today, I...

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?

One of the updates for my nice old Acer One (High Definition Audio) does not install.
As we can't select updates, we simply have to install them all, that nasty failing update appears in all subsequent series of updates, which causes them all to fail.
I think we really should have the...
After installing Ag. 12th updates, my View Installed Updates window shows only Aug 12th items. All the previous updates are gone.
Is that normal ?
Correction I should say...... " my view update history shows only Aug 12th items."
I would like to know if there is a way to stop being offered specific Windows updates that do not apply to my personal usage. I use the process where I am notifies if there are updates available and I chose which I desire.
For example:

Hi
As some of you have probably noticed I've done a lot of complaining about Google Chrome lately.
It wouldn't display this page correctly for one thing, always left a large blank space at the top with nothing in it.
It wouldn't open links for my mail or other sites.
I tried removing and...
