• Update Windows Defender KB915597 automatic update and other sources.

  It seems that, after each automatic update of Windows Defender on my computer at home another updated appears another update showing about 3 days more later from "another source."  It should be?  The two definition links are link ID = 52661.  All definitions are different and my computer has been updated July 28,2010-July 30, 2010.  It has been also updated for the same KB915597 on May 27, 2010 and may 31, 2010.  I do not understand why the KB is downloaded several times automatically and also "other source".

  TIP: Give your full version of Windows (for example, WinXP SP3;) Windows XP 64 - bit SP2; Vista SP1; Vista 64 - bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64 bit) when you post in a forum or a newsgroup.

  Left to itself, Windows Defender will be auto-updated itself twice a week (usually the Monday/Tuesday and Friday/Saturday). These updates are updates "Other Source" you will find listed in the update history.

  With Microsoft Update [1] as source of update by default, you will be offered that Defender updates when you run a manual check for updates. Here are the optional updates: If you choose to not install one, Defender will always auto-updated itself by what precedes.

  [1] "what are the differences between Windows updates and automatic updates from Microsoft Updates?

  "While Windows Update provides updates specifically for Windows, Microsoft Update expands the service to download and install updates for other software from Microsoft, such as Microsoft Office and Windows Live and Silverlight [and Microsoft Security Essentials]. Update automatic is a feature that allows you to configure your PC to automatically download and install updates using each service, making it easy and convenient for you to keep your current Windows PC. "[Source: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/windowsupdate/FAQ.mspx]

• How to prevent the automatic updates

  How to prevent the automatic updates which closes the window and restart the computer in Windows 7, Vista OP?  I'm usually right in the middle of something when this happens.

  Hello

  change how to get updates to allow you to choose what you and when you install to stop it happening again

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial140.html

  Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Windows will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

  Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

• Help the clean installation of Windows 7 Pro and using the GPO to run automatic updates and restart all night

  I am trying to solve a problem that will probably require a new installation of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. The grace period ends in 3 days, and the next 30 days are final exams at the College. I have 2 licenses (and product key) of Windows 7 Pro, but my drive HARD goes wrong and I don't want to use MAK activation. I will be eventually to replace the disk, but is now bad timing.

  If a reinstall is needed, I was going to ask if anyone knows how to set the strategy of perhaps a GPO where Windows is updated automatically in the background and after installing updates, 45 or 60 minutes, then restart. The goal would be to have a computer fully patched when I wake up in the morning.

  This is my plan:

  Install Windows 7 Pro SP1 64 bit > Windows automatically updated and plug the Ethernet cable > define a GPO where the computer waiting for 45 to 60 minutes after installation of updates (so the msi may end in the background, and I do not interrupt the installation) > the PC will restart > more update swill be downloaded and installed > wait due to the policy of GPO before reboot > Reboot > do it until it's over. > wake up with a PC fully patched 7-9 hours later.

  Is this a workable plan?, and if so, how do I define policies such as delay restarting, etc. to achieve?

  The reset did not work. It would be a simple solution. I have a valid license, but I don't want to replace the HARD drive until after final exams are over, so I'll reinstall and activate. I try to achieve in the next 24 hours, so it doesn't keep me from my school work.  I must also support and will then replace my files.

  Feel free to advanced used terminology. I have some experience.

  Any help is greatly appreciated!

  Another question: should I install a security suite before all updates being installed more than 12 hours, or wait until later? What is the level of risk?

• Cannot turn off automatic updates and the Error Message on Loadup and Peridoically subsequently

  The following error message appears when the computer starts up, when I click on "check for updates", when I try to turn off the automatic updates in the preferences and at random times.  In the preferences, more precisely, I am able to choose the area that must go out looking for updates, but when I try to save the setup I get this exact error message.

  -----------------------------

  AdobeARM.exe

  The procedure entry point CreateProcessWithTokenW is not found in the library of Hotlinks ADVAPI32. DLL.

  -----------------------------

  The computer is an old laptop running Windows XP.  I think that it's Windows XP is a key reason why the error occurs.  That said I can't replace the laptop right now so I would turn off rather updated.  I've updated to the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe Web site.  The new version added a 4th checkbox in the section to turn off the automatic updates, but I always get the same exact error message.

  Is there a hidden Windows Settings folder I have can be directed to Adobe Reader?  A file where I can change the automatic updates option from 1 to 0 to turn it off?  Because the software does not work.

  Please, create the following registry key:

  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FeatureLockDown]

  "bUpdater" = DWORD: 00000000

  In addition, you can run msconfig (via the Win + R), go to the Startup tab and deselct point of 'Adobe Reader and Acrobat Manager' (which corresponds to the process AdobeARM.exe), press on apply and restart your machine.

• Laptop crashes / freezes after automatic update and reboot yesterday evening

  I left my laptop on last night and when I woke up this morning, it was restarted.  I assumed that an update was downloaded and installed during the night, as I put it in place for auto Windows Installer updated to date.  When I tried to stop, would not display the start menu, then I got the message that windows Explorer has stopped working and I got the info to send to Microsoft dialog box.  I chose to send information about the problem, but then I got a message that the error report had stopped working, I wanted to send information to Microsoft... nothing has worked right after that.  The arrow of the mouse move but no program would go, and I couldn't access the start menu to stop.  I tried Ctrl/alt/del but nothing happened.

  I forced a restart and booted in safe mode.  I did a system restore to a point marked as an update of windows at 03:00 this morning.  The laptop booted up normally after that; I opened and closed some programs without any problem, so I thought that the problem has been resolved.

  I was using the laptop at school (I'm a teacher) and everything was fine until I tried to close Word.  He hung up and I couldn't do anything else.  Yet once, mouse move but nothing else has worked, and I couldn't access the Task Manager.

  I did a system restore to the point where I have installed several updates yesterday afternoon.  Has not fixed the problem.  I did a last restoration to a regular point since the day before yesterday... still has not fixed the problem.  I am now running my AVG Anti-virus in safemode, but he still found nothing.

  I need help!  I have a HP laptop which is one year (and only 2 weeks after the end of the one year warranty) and I am running Vista with Office XP.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  I think it's fixed... fingers crossed.

  After that start above safe mode, I have restarted in normal mode in order to save what I could and uninstalled a few things.  In the process, I found the place to uninstall windows updates.  There were two listed as installed in 2010 - one is an update of windows and the other was a security update.  I uninstalled both.  I was using my computer all the rest of that day and had no more problems.  I do not know what updates, I uninstalled, but one or both must have caused the problem.  I wish I knew of to do it sooner, but honestly, I think that to do a system restore would be uninstall updates added from this point.  I know better now and I have disabled the automatic updates, so I hope that this will not happen.  Thanks for your help, even if it wasn't what ended up working :)

• Automatic updates and security updates

  Automatic updates can and put security be removed from the computer, if they were done in 2007, 2008 or 2009?

  No, if you uninstall you remove the update - I guess you are seing these updates in Add or remove?

  There is a method of deleting the files from the installer, this will prevent however you be able to uninstall an update if you need
