Windows 8 Obstinate update

[Listek91]

Hello. I have problems with windows10 update, or rather not updating to this. I uninstalled this update KB3035583 and even though "WINDOWS UPDATE" still wants to restart my computer for this update, update reschedule tool still works, and I can't search for other updates untill I restart and install updates. I took a risk and pressed "RESTART NOW" but nothing happend, nothing got installed and nothing actually changed. I have once accidentaly started the update but I turned off my computer to prevent it. That's the issue I can't solve. Please help me get rid of this obstinate updating problem. I'm running windows 8.1.

Hi,
try running the Microsoft troubleshooting tool for updates:
Fix Microsoft Windows Update Issues

It did not help. Still same symptoms.

Have you considered using system restore to back before the update was installed?


Oh and i moved your thread to the correct section.

Well, it happend a while ago and I am not able to move backwards that far. I thought it's a temporary thing and it will disappear but it didn't.

I found next link: How to uninstall KB3035583 - The Windows 10 Downloader for Windows 7 and 8.1 - Myce.com

It may help in case you decide to install that update again, creating a more defined state, and so being able to remove it properly and deactivate it.
