peterish Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 every time I start my computer, windows update automatically starts and begins downloading SP2, and I have to use ctrl alt delt to shut it down. I dont want this to happen and I dont want to install SP2. How do I turn off the auto update feature ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamz Veteran Posted October 1, 2004 Veteran Share Posted October 1, 2004 uh, system properties > automatic updates > turn off auto updates. and you can turn off the service as well. but get sp2 for security's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvbfan Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 :rolleyes: Just turn off auto updates in the control panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drekon_v1 Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 You could also download a tool from Microsoft to block SP2 for "240 days after August 16" instead of shutting down automatic updates completely link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
