Tantawi Posted July 1, 2005 Author Share Posted July 1, 2005 Thanks cdrw (Welcome to Neowin (Y) ) & charleyjr for help, but what you provided is for "Windows Update", not for the new "Microsoft Update", even the icon :( I know I'm bening silly, but hope someone with the mentioned shortcut can help.

Huy Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 What's Microsoft Update? Never heard of that actually (then again I am mainly an Apple user). I thought you were asking for WU like everybody else? Maybe it's an extra thing with AntiSpyware or some new addition to XP I don't know about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tantawi Posted July 1, 2005 Author Share Posted July 1, 2005 Thanks Chillbo & I8PP! That did the trick! (Y) Huy > Microsoft Update is like a new version of Windows Update, it checks for Windows Updates, Drivers, etc + MS Offie updates as well, new interface etc :) Thank you all!
