Disable the auto restart after auto update

I can't express how frustrating, it is at the foot of two hours of hits for a drink, to return to my job cancelled by an automatic restart after Windows update. This kind of thing has happened several times. And as I have a Vista Home Premium, I did not have access to group policy to turn off. So guys, how to prevent windows to lose more of my work with its seedy characteristics? Thanks in advance.

  • Disable the auto-update to the SYSTEM on windows

    I wrote an AIR application called via a command "exec" of php for my employer. This is part of an automated system where there is no user interaction. The problem is that whenever the application is running, every now and then he will open the update to Adobe AIR, waiting user input to allow the update or cancel.

    I downloaded the soft AIR Settings Manager, and he did a great job of disabling the auto-update feature, but ONLY for the user running the application. Is it possible to disable the auto update system?

    Hey Ozzy,

    The HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\AIR\UpdateDisabled parameter to 1 will disable TIME updates for all users.  Adding the file%APPDATA%\Adobe\AIR\updateDisabled will disable the updates on a PER-user basis.

    Hope this helps,

  • How can I disable the auto restart (following updates) for Windows 7 Home Premium (without messing around w / the register)?

    Hello.  About all of the weeks I have my upload computer files from one day to the next.  It's a 17-hour process, and I don't want the computer off or restarted during this process.  Murphy's law usually results in an update windows & restart related happening whenever I put my computer to download said.  First of all, it is deeply annoying that windows would reboot my computer without asking me (Yes, I realize he asks you, and if you are away for an extended period, he just goes ahead and does it... but really, what the $#! % is the point of asking you if she goes ahead and that anyway when you get him just enough early?)  Wow!  Incredibly retarted the Windows for this.)  But anyway, how can I disable this for Win7 Home Premium?  (As if in the first place is not quite annoying, making it virtually impossible to figure out how to turn it off is like adding insult to injury).  Please NOTE, I've seen some other forum post responses on this site that is: (1) link to an information page on the group policies for system administrators, but nowhere does really explain where and how to access these policies and change them!  (2) has a process that begins with 'gpedit.msc' running, but when I started > box to search for this file, there is no result.  (3) the hacking the registry (seriously?  Please, don't.)  SO, please tell me how to disable the auto restart, step by step, without messing with the registry, for WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM.  Ideally, I'd like to be able to potentially re - activate cela in the future and/or switches back as my usage dictates.  And for the record, it's nut that's not a simple option toggle any, as when my computer or monitor sleeps...  Thank you!!

    Thank you.  I'll do it and change my Windows Update settings.  BUT, FYI, in an act even more incredible, the same night I posted my question here, my computer was said upload, and I was still in place at 03:00 (when Windows is set to d/l and install updates).  I went to the kitchen for a bit and returned to my computer to find a countdown - he downloaded updates and "will re-start in 7 minutes" or so and counting down... I said "AH HA!"  I caught you! "I clicked the button of REPORTER and went to bed smiling that I myself had saved wasting many hours of work.  But when I woke up the next morning... HE HAD DONE IT AGAIN!  This means that it is: (1) downloaded another "critic" (cough) update later in the evening, which seems likely because it took to do this at 03:00 and had already done so... or (2) the REPORTER button defers only during a certain period of time (maybe an hour, or even less, by the look of it) and then do it again anyway.

    This is ridiculous.  As it is not ridiculous to called 9 10 patches 'critical', so critical that an urgent restarting your computer is necessary EVEN IF HE is BUSY WORKING, the substitution of the computer user asks to postpone and reboot anyway is absolutely unacceptable.  How the manufacturers of Windows might think this makes sense, let alone was a good idea?  Reporter should make the computer restarts DO NOT until * I * say he is allowed to do.

    In this case, finish the work of 17 hours, that the computer was in the Middle has been MUCH more critical that whatever is downloaded updated.  NO doubt about it.  I know.  Apparently, my operating system is not smart enough to know.  So to take it upon himself to replace my reporter application is crazy.  And in addition, the operating system MUST be smart enough to understand this - it's really not that difficult - if the computer is a lot of work, something intense, a download that is not finished, a sort of bar of ANY progress on ANY application which is not 100% yet, etc., it should be smart enough to WAIT to reboot anyway.

    Thanks again once, change Windows Update settings so it will download updates but let me choose to install them, since this operating system is so poorly thought.

  • How to install a driver after you turn off the auto-update

    I disabled auto-update Windows Update drivers by following the instructions in the following article:

    It was due to the update of Windows Installer drivers on top of my existing bluetooth drivers and prevent the unit to work. I had to reinstall Windows to solve this, UN-installing then the installation of the Dell printer drivers did not work.
    I just bought a Freecom 2 to drive that connects via eSATA. Unfortunately, the instructions say that I don't need to install drivers because Windows will do it automatically! Ugh.
    I am reluctant to turn to the auto-update as it will probably destroy bluetooth again. So the question is: How can I install Freecom drivers and the problem of bluetooth do not breed take the risk?
    Note: Looking at the dialog box "want you Windows to download the driver software? ' there is an option to" install the driver software from Windows Update if it does not appear on my computer.
    Well well... driver Dell bluetooth software is on my computer (the software to install, it is on my C: drive and it is also installed) so not preventing him to get the version of Windows Update? I am concerned about the confidence that, given that the driver has been installed also the last time he downloaded the MS driver (although the auto-update feature was turned on at that time here). I'm afraid to think that the Dell driver's oldest (who is) and so he gets crushed.
    Thanks in advance.

    "the fact that the manual says that he needs a driver to be"automatically installed by the operating system"suggests that... he needs Windows Update."

    (1) while I don't have an external HARD drive in a box I have a case of a slot for external e-SATA replaceable hot which is about the same as a commercial external HDD, but without the box.
    When I plug in a HARD drive into the slot in Windows automatically detects the drive.
    Windows should automatically install the drivers for basic/generic for most of the devices when it detects something new just to be attached/connected. Once Windows did, this 'device' must be posted from there on.
    This is not the same thing as let the Windows updates to install the drivers.

    So, when you plug in the external hard drive on e-SATA port, the first time Windows pops up a similar message to-"new device detected... the driver installation, you can check if the device is detected and drivers are installed by going to computer management > Device Manager to see if your external HARD drive is on the list of hard drives."
    If non - R / click on hard drives and click "search physical changes.
    There is also an option here to update the drivers.

    You are quite correct disable optional updates.
    It is not a recommended option, especially for the graphics drivers and chipset.
    Personally, if the mfg of the material provides drivers on their website always download and install the drivers manually.
    As a result of that it is prudent to updated Windows configuration only updates are available so you can choose which you want to install and choose to install it on your own time inform.
    This way you can close applications and browsers and better to avoid the possibility of corruption updated leaving the priority update. It is also
    more course with a clean install of Windows to start with sp1, and then do the other updates in small batches.

    2. when the HARD drive is connected and recognized in the Device Manager are moving
    for the computer management > disk management. This shows the good
    for HARD drive capacity?
    If the HARD drive has only a small partition and unallocated space that is perhaps why only a small capacity is shown elsewhere.  You can format the HARD drive and
    create a new Partition or Partitions here.

    "b if I uninstall/remove device, then as soon as I tried to install the driver from the manufacturer it seemed to install ok, but... still bluetooth didn't work." It simply detects all devices everything I tried. »

    Ignore the link of the player Shockwave that probably, you mustn't he compared to Flash player because it is barely used nowadays.

    FredMcD, you really need correct/update your clipboard for that.

    The downloadable Shockwave player version (not flashing) is 12.1.3.153 and not 15.0.0.152 as you can be confusing which version of the flashplayer reached before.

    Flash player is 15.0.0.189 and not 14.0.0.179 as you can see at https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

  • Windows 10 - How do I stop the auto update July 29

    Hi all!

    I just purchased a Lenovo Yoga 3 14. I am trying to set up (any suggestions welcome, but I have been reading this forum and looking online for help) and have been unable to find an answer to the following question.

    The agent told me that any PC, I bought (which currently has Windows 8.1) automatically updates itself to Windows 10 July 29, once connected to the internet.

    My problem is that I will be sitting at the bar at the end of the month with this laptop (ending June 30). The bar exam using ExamSoft (by SofTest), which does not support Windows 10 (again, not guaranteed by the bar exam - and certainly not something I want to have to worry). Review of software requires an internet connection to download the review, although it is not connected to the internet, other than for the upload.

    I turned off the auto update (for now) and am hoping that if I do not connect to the internet for a long time (although I can't control how long and it may need to be connected for a long time to download), it will not be updated. Does anyone know of a way I can stop this automatic update? (When I've updated my old laptop Win8, then 8.1, I could opt for the update and run it when I chose, but also go back to the old version if I did not like the news. "It seems strange to me that there is an automatic update without option).

    Thanks in advance!

    As mentioned Atli, it won't auto update. By getting the so-called "reservation", you still get to determine when the update is installed after that date, but it will significantly speed up the upgrade process because you don't have to wait for a download of 3 GB.

    To uninstall the callback, see: http://www.ghacks.net/2015/04/17/how-to-remove-windows-10-upgrade-updates-in-windows-7-and-8/

  • Get updates for RH8-HTML outside the Auto updates

    I have RH8-HTML.

    Part of commissioning is to check the updates of the software to the mother ship Adobe.

    This NEVER ends, as I suspect there is something in our network or firewall you can stop this, so I suspect I'm in the basic version of the RH8-HTML and some of its features acts puff a little from time to time.  To exclude real issues, I would do it for sure, I'm in the last patch level, but since the auto updates even never start, and still less finished, I'm in a bit of a pickle.

    The same update that can be invoked for HELP - UPDATES..., but it gives the same results as the auto update with the message of:

    "Update server is unresponsive, which means that it may be offline at the moment, or firewall settings or Internet is perhaps incorrect. Please try again later. »

    Y at - it somewhere I can DOWNLOAD a service pack and apply it to RH8-HTML outside the normal automatic update service?

    There are no patches yet for RH8.

  • Continuous restart after installing updates on windows xp

    Hi, I have an Acer Netbook only a year and I installed the automatic Windows updates because my windows is original, so I thought that it would be no problem. The thing is that a few days before he installed the latest update and after the reboot to finish the installation she never windows again. He continues to send me a black screen where I can choose between:

    safe mode

    safe mode with networking

    safe mode with command prompt

    Start windows normally

    and it doesn't matter which I choose, it sends me a blue screen which last less than a second and it restarts again.

    I tried pressing F8 and more option appears, but each of them ends up with the same blue screen.

    My laptop is a netbook so I don - t have a CD drive on it for wondows stable once again, so please help me!


    Thank you very much!

    Hi marraqueta,.

    To disable the automatic restart in case of system error, follow these steps:

    1. reboot your computer and start pressing F8 on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured to start to multiple operating systems, you can press the F8 key when the Boot Menu appears.

    2. Select disables automatic system failure reboot when the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, and press ENTER.

    Subsequently, when a problem causes a blue screen of death or another major error that stops the system, the PC will automatically restart. It will be necessary to restart manually.

    Hello Raghav Kabra,

    Thank you for your message.  To clarify, is the performance of your computer when you install/download updates Windows or after you have started for the first time trolling, because updates have taken effect?  If this is the case, the reasons could be:
    1. in the download, you'll be using your internet connection, which will slow down your bandwidth as well as the use of processing power to perform the update.  A little dip lag or performance would not be out of the question here.
    2 when you install updates, the processor will work to install the necessary files that have been downloaded on your computer which may cause a dip in performance.
    3. When you start your computer for the first time after an update, you may experience a longer period of logon, because the computer to initialize all the updates that you have just downloaded and installed.

  • Disable the button "submit" after the presentation

    We have a form that we distributed to multiple users. The shape is defined so that presentations go to a predefined server location. The problem is that some users submit the form several times (don't know why). Maybe they do not notice the message that says 'submit form '. In any case, we want to disable the button send after submitting the form (even it is only for this "session"). I know that once the form is closed and reopened the button works again, and that's ok. If anyone has any suggestions I would be grateful. Thank you.
