  • And what does this update actually?

  Thanks for any help provided.

  scrubie,
  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.

  Hope that helps. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

• I have disabled the automatic update, but it will however update! How to disable?

  I use version 34 and I don't want to update becase the plugins work correctly with the newer versions. I disabled the automatic updates check in preferences, but updates of firefox sometimes! It makes me very angry, I'm tired to restore my backups. What should I do to prevent the automatic update forever! I'll be able to update the program if I need!

  Mozilla Maintenance Service can be updated Firefox for you. Disabling updates of Firefox does not stop this 'service' to make updates.

• TB 31.5.0 Win 7 after the TAB key for the automatic update no longer creates new address line "write" (enter the done key) but I want the TAB key! Why this keep happening after

  TB 31.5.0 Win 7 after the TAB key for the automatic update no longer creates new address line "write" (enter the done key) but I want the TAB key! Why is - this seems to happen after each automatic update? Cant we get 'option' to use the TAB key to navigate through the lines of address "write"?

  TAB through the fields that exist. It is the function of the TAB.

  Otherwise you could never use TAB to go out in a field for example: subject. It would create an indefinate number of fields and are unable to function as a TAB key.

  TAB does not back to THE fields,
  New crests to THE fields or donkey typing/selection enter/return address, you can use the selection of mouse click.

• Stop the automatic updates.

  I won't use Firefox 29 or newer to the interface introduced v29 shit it's user friendly and bring some missing thing the v28 (they may be survivals of an older profile), no. Restorer Classic theme does not bring them back.
  The above is here simply to try to stop suggestions on the use of v29

  I tried to go into the menu options Firefox > Options > advanced > never search for updates, but this does not prevent updates.
  I had to uninstall Firefox 29 5 times today, each time after he said to "never check updates."

  Not to start a war here, but Mozilla won't return to the entire user interface that they spent 2 years working on. That would be a downgrade to them. Mozilla is all pushing forward. Some users may the hate, but it's that there are other alternatives such as the Restorer of classic theme for people who dislike the design Australis.

  There is a way to disable updates by going through the menu Options, but after this, when you go to help > on Firefox, it would update regardless of this setting.
  2 methods here, pick a.
  You can set these prefs in about:config to turn off the automatic update:
  
  App.Update.auto - false
  
  App.Update.Enabled - false
  
  App.Update.Silent - false

  Or you can use this method to do it for you:
  You can create a new file in a text editor (default values are: Notepad of Windows, TextEdit for Mac and Linux text editor) called user.js . When you save user.js, is ensure that it's file type is all FILES like leaving as it's going to add the extension .txt (user.js.txt) and it will not work. Place this file in your profile folder. See link below to find out how to access the file

  • How to find my profile folder

  After you create the folder, simply add the following to your user.js file, save and close, restart Firefox

  // turn off application updates:
  user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
  

• The automatic update on Firefox poses a security problem as they say some sites

  I just noticed that some sites say that the automatic update of Firefox is a security risk and I was wondering if it was true

  No, it isn't. people work to update firefox to make it better and safer. and most recent version allows to block the pulgin in any page and indicates same elem in a secure page. It therefore becomes safer. Security risk may be running plugins such as java, shockwave etc so only run on trusted sites.

• I can't change the automatic update settings

  I noticed recently that the automatic update of windows is no longer asked me whether to download updates. When I checked the settings via the Control Panel setting had been changed to "Install updates automatically". The toolbar is now grayed out and I am unable to choose another option!

  I'm the only person using this computer as administrator, with a single user profile. I don't understand why I'm not allowed to change these settings more and you would appreciate the help.

  Thank you

  Cleaning a compromised system

  Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) will NOT fix it!

  HOW to do a clean install of Win7: see "using the custom installation and formatting the hard drive option" (or "reinstall it Windows 7") http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-7 article

  NOTE: If your computer came with a set of disks, there is a hidden partition restore (not to be confused with the restoration of the system) you would use to do the clean install (AKA a "destructive recovery").

  After the new installation, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of EVERYTHING on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) AND BEFORE to plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external drive to the computer otherwise:

  4 steps to help protect your new computer before going online
       http://www.Microsoft.com/security/pypc.aspx

  VERY IMPORTANT! -Online free trial Norton will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the Norton Removal Tool again BEFORE installing updates AND BEFORE installing your new anti-virus application (for example, Microsoft Security Essentials - free, instead of AVG).

  If you need additional assistance with the clean install, please start a new thread in this forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7repair/threads

  [If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair shop.]

  Wish I had better news for you.  Good luck!

• Is this ok to activate the automatic updates now?

  Hey guys I have the same q... is it OK to turn on the automatic updates now... I had the same prob - stage restart loop 3... I fixed it by using method 4 then I installed Microsoft fixit files... how ever it has updated to sp2 now... I can turn on the updates, and install them?

  Hi ganganatha,.

  Looking for your other post I see that you have run the fixit reset Windows Update. It's yours if you want to enable automatic updates or not. However, so that Windows install important updates as they are available, it is recommended to activate the automatic update. With an automatic update, you don't have to search for updates online or worry that critical fixes for Windows might be missing from your computer. Windows automatically checks for updates for your computer.

  In addition, given that the issue is resolved, you can turn on it.

  Here are answers to some common questions about updating Windows automatically.

  Understand the automatic Windows Update

  There are other ways in which Windows inform you about updates. You can set according to your convenience.
