How can I stop El Capitan to install automatically

El Capitan installed automatically during the night. I have a lot of incompatible software, so I said Yosemite. Automatic updating is not turned on. I'm also sick of having to say no to the upgrade. What can I do? It takes hours to return.

Download the installer on your own time, then just exit the program installation.  He will be sitting peacefully in your applications folder.

  • How can I stop Windows Messenger from starting automatically

    I have never used Windows Messenger.  I recently bought / implement a system refurbished with XP Home - after about a month of use, the Herald began popping up automatically whenever I start the machine, or when I open Outlook Express (and immediately requires a screen name access code (whenever it starts, even if I gave him once to satisfy) (, so I have two things to cancel).

    As I say, he began to do this by himself without conscious action on my part, a few weeks after the introduction of the machine. I had an older XP machine for 6 years and never seen it happen.

    Two questions: 1) is this a normal behavior to require a name to screen EACH time it starts? I would have thought that it would save one associated with the connection.

    (2) how can I do to stop the automatic aperture? I don't necessarily want to kill-I can actually try to use it someday. I just that it quietly hide in the system tray, as it has always done before.

    To stop the Messenger to start with Windows:

    (1) right-click on the Windows Messenger icon in the system tray.
    2) click Open.
    (3) in Windows Messenger, click on tools, then click Options.
    4) click the Preferences tab.
    (5) in the preferences, uncheck the "run Windows Messenger when Windows starts" and "Allow Windows Messenger to run in the background", and then click Ok.

    To prevent Outlook Express from loading Messenger

    (1) open Outlook Express
    2) click Tools, Options
    3) click on general tab
    (4) uncheck the box to automatically log on to Windows Messenger
    5) click OK Microsoft Security MVP, 2004-2009

  • How can I stop the page to reload automatically when I hit the back button?

    A few months back, I upgraded to a new laptop, and since then, when I hit the back button, it refreshes the previous page from what I can understand. On my last laptop, if I was doing some research on a site and click the previous button, the search bar would be automatically ready to hit the BACKSPACE and delete what is there for a new search. Now, when I hit the back button, I have to manually click inside the search box to do, and I hate it. When you are doing research on multiple sites, like this time savers really help. This applies to regular sites (forums, online stores, etc.), not search like Google sites.

    I don't have this problem on my old laptop and does not know how to solve this problem on this one. They are the two Win7 x 64, and version of the browser is not the issue. I started Firefox on this computer that same exact on the last of them, and after the updates, it's always the same. I am currently on 8.0 but will soon be upgrading to the new.

    Do you mean that the search bar on this page focus?

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • Since the update to El Capitan, during the scrolling of the screen guard snapping back to the top of the screen. How can I stop this?

    Since the update to El Capitan, during the scrolling of the screen guard snapping back to the top of the Web page. How can I stop this?

    Please read this message before doing anything.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

    The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

    Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    Test in safe mode. Same problem?

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.

  • How can I stop Firefox asking me over and over again (even on pages without Flash content) to install Flash? I don't want to not installed Flash and this stupid pop-up.

    Then, even when I load Web sites (like those that we here at my work have created) with very simple HTML and absolutely nothing Flash related, I always get a pop-up asking me to install flash (pop down from the URL bar on the left.) How can I stop this without disable all updates of plug-in?

    Also, why in the name of all that is good it wonder on Flash when I have no pages open with anything remotely Flash like on them?

    Thanks to anyone who can answer.

    my thought was that maybe an extension is inserting the flash code in each page visited...

    Hello Buster Funch,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers Forum!

    First of all, you can try to check what version of Internet Explorer is installed on your computer.

    To determine the version of Internet Explorer, click on about Internet Explorer on the Help menu or press Alt + H and then press A.

    If you are repeatedly prompted to download and install the Windows Internet Explorer update, I suggest that you try to check if Internet Explorer is installed correctly. See this article for more information on this:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-should-I-do-if-Internet-Explorer-8-doesn ' t-install properly

    You can try to reset the Internet Explorer security settings by running the Fix - it suggested in the article.

    If nothing works, then try to uninstall Internet Explorer and try to install it once more. Here is an article that will give you steps how to uninstall Internet Explorer 8:
