• How can I remove old updates from windows to prevent their fill my hard drive?

• Windows Update offers me a few old updates, is there a way to track and organize the installation of update history?

  Original title: update windows

  I am regularly offered 'old' updates for installation, for example, KB2487367 published 05/08/2011. Is it possible to copy my Windows Update history file to an Excel file? I could then sort by number of update and avoid download/installation of the old updates. Or better yet, is there a historic Windows Update file that is already sorted by number of update?

  Yes, it was installed successfully (according to the history of the update). No indication that it was available on resetting for several days. I went through my entire history of update to see if/when it has been previously installed. It is not a major concern for download and install. Am I better turn off just the download of 'important' updates offered by Microsoft? He done wrong to "re-download"?

  If you install, you may need it.  You only * need * to install critical / security updates really.
   
  If the update installs correctly and not is not offered on several occasions "burst" - there is no harm in just letting Windows Update just "doing his thing"...

  Cleaning Windows Update option is available only when you log on with administrator permissions.

  Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, right-click on disk cleanup, click on Run as Administrator. Scroll the menu drop down and you should see the option of cleaning of Windows Update. Check the box before this option.

  Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options , the System Restore tab and delete all but the last system restore point. Run Disk Defragmenter.

  Redchecker,

  There is no such thing as 'old' updates. They are there to protect against a vulnerability or provide updates of the o/s. withdrawal defeats the purpose of them being there.

  This isn't for Vista - after each update, Volume Shadow Copy service backup only the updated files. With Vista, is a differential backup, rather than a full backup and uninstalling files in Windows XP.  This safeguard mechanism is used to save disk space.
