• How to disable the automatic updates of windows and to update on demand

  At the same time, I had disabled the automatic updates of windows and updated on demand by opening windows update.  Where is the place to activate and deactivate the automatic updates of windows.

  It worked.  Thank you!

  I wasn't able to get automatic updates to download a microsoft windows update.  The fix for microsoft in default mode indicated that he needed to be repaired and that fixed it.  When windows update was used again the update has failed once again.  The fix even that it was then run in aggressive mode and with a recheck has failed to correct the problem.  At each restart, automatic updates took the time to start producing a yellow shield and then pop-up reminders.  So thank you to help us with these questions to disable the automatic updates of windows.

  Thanks for posting the results of your efforts, I don't know they will be read and appreciated.

• disable the automatic driver install windows 7 Home premium

  I have a problem installing my dell AIO 922 printer. It is said that I should avoid windows install the drivers.

  Like the windows version family premium is not a policy editor group that I need to know what to change in the registry to prevent the installation of the drivers when I connect my USB printer so I can let the driver installation program with dell windows do its work.

  Anyone know how to disable the automatic installation of the driver without the Group Policy Editor?

  Thank you

  Hello, Willem.

  Make a test with the steps below:

  -Click Start (lower left corner of the desktop)
  -Right click on "computer" and select Properties.
  -On the left side, just below the tasks, select "Device Manager".
  -Locate your device, right click and select Properties.
  -Select the tab 'pilot' and click on uninstall.
  -Click ok and restart the computer.

  If this isn't the case, the only workaround for this problem is to install the latest driver on the manufacturer's Web site to overwrite the current driver.

  Kind regards

• Disable the automatic connection for Windows 7 with 1 single active account.

  I've searched high and low on Google but all I could find are methods to allow the automatic connection.

  Is it possible to have Windows 7 load to the top of the selection of Auditors even screen with 1 single active account?

  I remember what is a function available in XP.

  There are probably more simple methods, but it certainly works: create a fake account, then bring it to be hidden from the logon screen. The following batch file will do it for you when it is run under elevated privileges. Of course, you must disable the usual automatic connection setting via this command:

  Control userpasswords2

  And here's the batch file. Use the copy & paste - do not retype! Note that the line starting with
  "echo > % RegFile" is a very long line that ends in 'UserList]. " Not to break upward.

  off @echo
  Set RegFile="%temp%\reg.reg".
  echo > RegFile % REGEDIT4
  echo > RegFile % [HKey_Local_Machine\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList]
  echo > RegFile % "DummyUser" = DWORD: 00000000
  Regedit RegFile %

• Disable the automatic listing in windows media player

  I want to disable the autorating of windows media player. I followed the instructions given by Umesh P. on the forum of windows, but it does not work. I want to give my own opinion as I can arrange the files on the basis of the rating but side auto does not allow me. Any help?

  It's very frustrating to see the auto side.

  Hey all,.

  I found a very simple and effective method to remove windows media player auto rating. I was about to uninstall but then thought to explore further (because have best sound quality windows, Media Player) and found a way to do it.
  Steps to follow:
  1. Select all files
  2 give a rating (1 to 5 stars but not "no stars/unrated"). The yellow/gold star is added and the automatic side Blue Star will be deleted.
  Not assigning "no stars/unrated" will cause the automatic side Blue Star reappear.
  3. now, you can sort your songs.
  4. all the other songs will be listed as 1 star if you chose 1 star in step 2.
  Now, no need to uninstall windows media player. :)

• How to disable the automatic locking of the screen of the computer with windows XP

• How can I disable the automatic IP Configuration in Windows 7?

  Is someone can you please tell me how to disable the automatic IP Configuration in Windows 7?  I am happy to change the registry to implement if necessary.

  Why?

  Because my PC sometimes gives an IP address like 169.254.0.1.  This is because Windows has detected that your computer is connected to a network, but the PC has not yet given an IP address by DHCP on the network, so Windows Server the automatic IP Configuration comes in and gives the PC an IP address that starts with 16.254.

  The reason why that the DHCP server on the network has not given an IP address was because the network is coming a few seconds before the DHCP server comes up, and the automatic IP Configuration Windows comes too quickly.

  Of course, once the PC has an IP starting 169.254, he cannot communicate with my router that has an IP address that starts with 192.168.  The only cure, outside re-booting, is to issue the ipconfig/renew command to obtain an IP address from the router DHCP server.

  If I can turn off the automatic IP Configuration of Windows (I could disable in XP) then I can avoid this error.

  One option that you have.

  You can set the IP address to a static IP address.

  Reach:
  Beginning
  Control Panel
  Network and Internet
  Network and sharing Center

  Click on connection to the Local network (a separate dialog box opens Local Area Connectin status)
  Click on Properties (opens the dialog)
  Click on Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
  Click on Properties

  On the general tab, move the radio button to use the following IP address:
  Here you can set the IP address that you want to use the machine.

  Example of Configuration:
  192.168.0.254
  255.255.255.0
  192.168.0.1

  You will need to note the IP DNS addresses you need more.
  If you like you can even use a set of public DNS servers for free. http://www.online-tech-tips.com/cool-websites/free-DNS-server/

  Please note that the sample configuration assumes routers IP is 192.168.0.1, check please. :)

  Good luck

• Pavilion Slimline: Stop the automatic download of Windows 10

  How can I prevent the automatic download of Windows 10?  I have the Home Edition of Windows 7 that works very well.  I tried the update of Windows 10 twice and it does not recognize my CD/DVD drive.  I started Windows 7 and that you want to keep it this way, but Windows keeps trying to automatically download Windows 10.  I changed my Windows Update setting to notify me when there are updates but do not download or install.  I think that would stop it, but it didn't.  Can someone help me?  My PC is seven years old.  Windows 10 works fine on my laptop and my wife's office, but they are only 2 years old.

  Hello Mrlefty,

  Nothing wrong with the help of Windows 7.

  The fact that the CD was not recognized win 10 could be just a matter of making a Nick registration, but no less...

  If you want to stop the upgrade of Windows contained 10 horse, or download, as I do this is to install a small piece of software called GWX Panel by ultimate Outsider.

  Click on the link above and download it. There is also a guide explaining how to use it, but the Panel is little explicit, once opened.

  If you go to programs and features, and then on the left side you should see a link for "Daily display installed."  Which would then show the list of updates with the State which will show you if it failed or not.
