How to manually run Windows maintenance?

Windows 8 comes with Windows Defender, which I think is great. However, Windows maintenance is part of Windows Defender and is running "when [my] computer is inactive." I would like to manually run Windows Maintenance for a number of reasons, namely:

1. my computer is almost never idle, I always turn off when I can.
2. I am a gamer, and my PC is almost totally for the games. Because of paragraph 1, Windows Maintenance eventually run while I'm in the game, if I can get a drop decent in the FPS for about an hour.
3. Windows update runs when Windows maintenance done, automatically install important updates. However, many 'important' updates are not important at all, as Intel Smart Connect Technology (Bloatware) IE10 updates (my default browser is Chrome). I need to choose what updates I want to install.
As you can see, it is not really beneficial for the maintenance of Windows run on a schedule for me, but I don't want to turn it off completely, because of the tasks of the system, it performs, which are very helpful. Could someone please tell me if it is possible to run Windows Maintenance manually and if so, how? If it is not possible, it is possible to disable the automatic updates, or other characteristics, the interview of Windows is running and if so, how?
Thanks in advance!

  • How do I know when my database started running window maintenance

    Since a few days we experienced slow behavior in our database about 15:30.

    At this time yesterday, I noticed that our database has performed a work of collection of statistics on the table.  Then I watched resource_manager_plan parameter and noticed that we were in a maintenance window.

    Is it possible to say what date this window began to run.  The reason why I ask, is that there is a possibility that this windows has been activated last week accidentally.

  • How can I print my Microsoft Surface running Windows 8 RT?

    How can I print my Microsoft Surface running Windows 8 RT?

    Most new wireless printers have an impression of the Microsoft Surface with Windows 8 RT problem.  Everything you need to make these printers is tell them to print and they will.  Older wireless, Ethernet and USB printers should not have driver officially supported in Windows 8 RT, but there is a way to get the printer working.  There are different requirements depending on how the printer is connected to the Surface.

    Note: All the steps below are only for other HP ink Jet, DeskJet, PhotoSmart and OfficeJet printers.  These steps are not for Laserjet printers or printers from other manufacturers.  These steps may not work for all inkjet printers.  If these steps do not work, try different drivers in the list until you find the one that works (you'll understand what I mean once you follow the steps below).  If none of the drivers work, your printer does not work with the Surface.

    For (Ethernet or wireless) network printers, all you need is Surface keyboard or a USB keyboard to connect to the Surface.  It is simply what you have to type more easy to type.  You will also need to have the Surface and the printer connected to the same network.

    1. From the right edge, drag your finger to the left on the screen Surface to appear charms bar.
    2. Press search.
    3. Under the search box, tap Settings.
    4. In the search box, type devices and printers.
    5. Press devices and printers.
    6. Contact add a printer.
    7. Tap "my printer is not listed.
    8. Select the TCP/IP option and then press Next.
    9. Enter the IP address of the printer and press Next.  Note: You can get this from the network printer, or list DHCP in your router Configuration Page.
    10. The Surface will locate the printer and try to install it.  Installation fails, and the Surface will be asked what you want to do, look on the internet for the driver, or manually install the driver.  Choose to install the driver yourself.
    11. Press 'I want to choose from a list of drivers.
    12. If no driver is in the list, make sure that the box next to 'Show compatible drivers' is not checked.
    13. Choose HP in the production list.
    14. Choose driver DeskJet PCL 3 class in the list of drivers.  If this driver does not work, try using the Photosmart PCL3 driver, or the driver Officejet PCL 3.  (Thanks JonW for letting me know about these other alternates.) )
    15. Press Next.
    16. Tap Finish.
    17. Test print.

    For USB connected printers, need you a USB cable to connect the printer to the computer.

    1. Connect the printer to the computer via USB.
    2. Windows will try to find the drivers but will not be able to.
    3. Here Windows may ask you if you want to choose the driver to install.  If she go to step 14 below.
    4. From the right edge, drag your finger to the left on the screen Surface to appear charms bar.
    5. Press search.
    6. Under the search box, tap Settings.
    7. In the search box, type Device Manager.
    8. Press Device Manager.
    9. Tap view and select Show Hidden.
    10. Search for the printer in Device Manager.  It should be in the other devices section with a yellow warning next to her sign.
    11. Select the printer in the list.
    12. Press Action.
    13. Update driver to touch or to install any what it displays.
    14. The Surface will ask you what you want to do, look on the internet for the driver, or manually install the driver.  Choose to install the driver yourself.
    15. Press 'I want to choose from a list of drivers.
    16. If no driver is in the list, make sure that the box next to 'Show compatible drivers' is not checked.
    17. Choose HP in the production list.
    18. Choose driver DeskJet PCL 3 class in the list of drivers.  If this driver does not work, try using the Photosmart PCL3 driver, or the driver Officejet PCL 3.  (Thanks JonW for letting me know about these other alternates.)  )
    19. Press Next.
    20. Tap Finish.
    21. Test print.
