Deletion of update reminders

Hello:

I always get reminders to install updates such as the screen of the browser choice (KB976002) that I have absolutely no use I also tells me to install an update for my printer driver I have tried to install several times but always fails.

With XP, we used to be able to tell the update to stop bothering us an update, but I can't find it with Win 7! How can I disable such things?

Thank you very much.

    Hello Alonda,

    Thanks for the response on the answers.microsoft.com forum.

    It seems that you are really wanting to get free space on your hard drive.  Certainly understand this importance.  Did you run a disk cleanup?  Do this by => click Start ORB-> computer-> right click on your drive Local (usu. C :) and select properties-> under a general tab, click Disk Cleanup

    Disk Cleanup will usually present your files can be deleted without reprecussions.  Also, most of the files that you can delete Windows putting updates in question the question about WINSXS, get lodged in this folder.  Here is an article of Nice forum describing the WINSXS file a little more away.

    Hi Carl,

    I suggest you go through this article to Java which can be useful.

    Why should I remove old versions of Java in my system?

    Removal of previous versions of the .net Framework is based on the applications that are running on the computer.

    For applications, if you have an application based on any .NET Framework on the computer, you cannot delete it since you have need to support the application runs correctly.

    .NET framework 3.5 SP1 includes .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 and 3.0 SP2. This means that .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0 can not be deleted because they are the sine qua non of .NET Framework 3.5 SP1. If you have any application based on .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, please do not remove .NET 2.0 SP2, 3.0 SP2 and 3.5 SP1.

    Older versions of the improved Adobe taking place HD can be deleted after update?

    Update from the upgrade - two different animals.  Updates the software that they update.  Upgrades of Adobe products do not need previous versions.

    Improved versions are better off removed before installing updates.  There are occasions where different versions share a file where deleting an older version after installing the newest one can delete a necessary file.

  • How to reduce advertising and update reminders

    I have Microsoft store and reminders of update of Google and the advertising covering the entire screen when I'm in the middle of typing emails, or look for something and I can not minimize or delete.  The only way that I can return to my work is by clicking 'Start' on the right corner. It's your time and very annoying.   I even hired a technician to help me and he has not been able to solve the problem.

    Right click on the Windows Logo at the bottom left in the office or the display start menu and choose "Control Panel" from the menu that opens.

    In Control Panel, choose (depending on your view)...

    Choose "System and security", followed a "Check for updates" under "Windows Update"...

  • deleted on update extensions

    Firefox updated automatically day then disappeared from all extensions. I started to download again the extensions, but whenever I press the News Options of Extensions, the browser hangs and must be stopped by the Task Manager. Is there a way to get the original extensions and settings back like they were before the update?

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    See "extension corrupted files:

    If you see disabled extensions, is not compatible, in "tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button, on the left side of the search bar (or click on the"Find updates"button in older versions of Firefox) to do a check of compatibility or to see if there is an available update compatibility.

  • Why is there a second (new) tab, you can not delete after update to 6.02?

    I am running Windows XP. After updating to Firefox6.02 a second tab was there after my 'Google' default tag. The second tab contains the words "New Tab" on this issue, and when you click the 'X' button in the tab, it does not close. When you go to for closing of Firefox a warning window/box will appear to tell you that you have 2 tabs open and asks if it's ok to close. I thought that there is a problem with the update. So I uninstalled Firefox and then re-installed. Same thing happened, 2 tablets. Any ideas?

    It is possible that there is a problem with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder.

    Delete the sessionstore.js file [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

    If you see files sessionstore-# .js with a number in the left part of the name as sessionstore - 1.js then delete those as well.
    Delete sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and tab groups and opened and closed the tabs (back) to get lost, so you will need to create them again (take note or bookmarks).

  • Is it safe to delete old Update Service installers?

    Hello

    Is it safe to delete the contents of the C:\ProgramData\National Instruments\Update Service\Installers? My PC has 7 GB of these files from 5 updates, and I want to delete them.

    The software NOR must it always these installers for nothing?

    Thank you!

    This folder currently holds downloads from the Update Service OR, if you go to file > Preferences you can see the folder where it stores its files (setting for another drive that is ideal to save space on the SSD drives).

    Removal of thesse installers often can be a problem if you build installers for your applications and it wants to include hotfixes with the packages that you select. Patches are often released after shipments of disk so you can't just point to those media.

    Otherwise, they are just the installation files and have zero effect on the use of your software from day to day.
