KB3075249, KB3080149 and KB3068708: they are really uninstalled?

After learn today that Microsoft has decided to follow the users of Windows 7 and 8, how they are tracking Windows 10 users, I decided to uninstall the 3 updates that track.  I found in my history of update, clicked on "Install updates", found in this list, click on each one and uninstalled.

When this was complete, I rebooted and went back into Windows update to see if they were offered to me even once so I could hide.  But they were not available.  So I rechecked my update history, and all three are still in the history.  But they are no longer in the list of "installed updates".  This means that they're really gone?

I hope that update history still shows them because they are a part of history, but they are of installed updates, because they are installed is no longer.  Is this correct?

I am running Windows 7 Professional SP1.  TIA for any help you can offer.

Hello Jane,.

Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

To respond to your request, uninstalled updates will continue to display in the history of the update. If they are uninstalled they should not appear in the installed updates. As you mentioned that these numbers KB updates do not appear in the installed updates, they are completely uninstalled from your computer.

Also, I would like to inform you that there is no monitoring Microsoft's plan. This information is incorrect. Windows updates are available only to keep your operating system up-to-date and secure. If you do not want a particular update to be installed on your computer you can hide, or if you do not want to upgrade your computer at all you can disable updates. It is entirely at your discretion. Microsoft has no control over the information on your computer.

  • I've renamed the images in a file and now they are all out of control, how to make their return to the original order

    I opened a drive with my camera phone, then renamed the photos with brief descriptions, and now they are all out of order. How to make back in the original order they appeared.

    Dennis

    Renamed files are apparently to be sorted by alphabetical order.
    It is the normal behavior of Windows.

    If you open the folder in question and go to... View / details... and
    Select the column that says: "Date picture taken", she should use
    photos.

    Also you can drag and drop photos to change position.

    Once you have pictures in the order you need... you can re-
    Number them in a batch to maintain order.

    Just go to... Edition / select all... right click on the first file name and choose...
    Rename... Enter the next number...

    .jpg (10001)

    Press Enter and the remaining files will be named in the order.

    You can also add a word if you want to identify the group.

    Summer vacation (10001) .jpg

    The "entrusted11" addon pretends to uninstall. The FF restarts, he was always there. In the meantime, I ran scan of Hitman Pro. It found and fixed several things led the others missed, as well as known malware. After a reboot of the machine, the Entrusted11 addon uninstall for real.

    Another problem: FireFox has been configured to use a proxy. I put that back to no proxy and redirects it to Bing went.

    Search for Reset the extension installed and ran, but something (popup of an icon in the bar of tasks or FF addon - they are close together and he quickly disappeared) blocked changes to the configuration of the home page. Reset manually under this kind of things: Tools-> Options-> general.

    Thank you

    You can delete the alias in the same way you remove any other file. Select the file and press Cmd + DELETE. I have no idea why alias Firefox keep would appear. It doesn't happen to me, but then I'm the launch from the dock.

  • How do I reopen it the status bar and the menu bar, I accidentally turned off one of them and now they are not accessible by right-clicking anywhere on the browser

    If you right click on the bar at the top of the page in the browser, you can check and uncheck what bars appear. I accidentally disabled something there and now when I click I can't get any menu to double-check my menu on the right, State bars so that they are visible. Currently they are not visible, I have no way to move or change settings.

    OK, got it fixed, I kept fishing around this site and found an answer. Press the Alt key and the menu bar appear temporarily, long enough to restore the bar to be visible.

  • Hard drives 3 TB worked... then I reinstalled Windows 7... and now they are not

    I have two hard drives of 3TO. They worked very well (only reading 2 TB but my motherboard does not support UEFI or everything that is necessary to read all 2 3, but whatever, is good enough, until I update). Question is, I went and formatted a 1 TB HARD drive, installed windows Vista and they showed the same partitions, 2 TB, all data, etc., but as soon as I have upgraded to Windows 7 once again, it will not read them. No material changed and the BIOS is the same. Only thing that has changed is what SATA 2 port they are plugged on my MOBO SATA controller. I also tried to use a partition program to see if he could see them, but it wont. My see BIOS of them still very well. I have the Asus P6T7 MOBO and green caviar 3 TB hard drives, thanks for any help.

    OK then... I installed all drivers related even by far with the readers... nothing

    I swapped SATA ports autour and... nothing, or so it seemed to me

    Finally, I swapped one of them in port 1 and it worked, but it is not

    so I swapped ports 1 and 2 and they both work... it seems that there is some sort of requirement for large-format readers be the front-line AND consecutive

  • I have archived emails from a local folder and now they are missing

    I had maybe 100-200 emails in a local folder. I've archived them with the menu. TB flashed a message that they were in the folder "2014". That's nice. Now, where fires is folder 2014? It is not found.

    The help documents say all configure the folder location of archives on the "Copies & folders" section of the page 'account & Settings '. But "Copies & folders" does not exist for local folders. So, where the hell are my emails?

    Technically, TB did not lose messages. He has just scattered to the four winds, where they would never be found.

    He brought back the out of local folders, accounts of mail box from whence they came. There, they were archived per year in different folders.

    I managed to restore them in local folders from a backup. Either way, this procedure was not without White knuckles because I had added a subfolder from the backup, and TB just went crazy mad.

    This isn't for the faint of heart. I can attest that things can go very wrong. Don't forget to save the profile before trying it and makes no changes to the profile while tuberculosis is open.
