Problems regarding on windows updates
Hello, you have not notified about your operating software. Windows automatic update is a necessary option. Microsoft Corporation regularly issues patches or updates to solve security problems in their software. The critical updates are the ones you should be concerned about. If these are not applied, it leaves your computer weak to intruders. Service Packs are larger updates which upgrade and fix security problems.
The Windows Update feature built into Windows 98, Me, NT, 2000, XP and win 7. Check your PC against a common database of patches. You go to a Microsoft web site and your operating system is checked against critical updates and a suggested list shows for your PC.
More recent versions of windows have an Automatic Update feature. This is available in Windows 2000, ME, XP and win 7. If you turn on this feature, your PC will check for, download and install critical updates over night. This eliminates the need for you to periodically check for updates.
Problems regarding on windows updates
There is actually no problem if you change the setting on the Windows Update. Your operating system will continue to work even if you don’t install any update. The frequent updates that get installed are only minor updates. It only improves the performance and stability of the operating system as well as fixes some security issues and bugs.
If the frequent updates annoy you, you can turn off Windows Update and just install or update your operating system to the latest Service Pack. The latest Service Pack is the accumulation of all the minor and major updates for the operating system. If you are using Windows XP, download and update your operating system to Windows XP Service Pack 3.
This is the latest and last Service Pack update for Microsoft Windows XP. If you are using Windows Vista, download and update to Windows Vista Service Pack 2. This is the latest and last Service Pack update for Microsoft Windows Vista. If you are using Windows 7, download an update to Windows 7 Service Pack 1.
This is the latest and only Service Pack update for Microsoft Window 7. Even if you turn off Windows Update, installing the latest Service Pack puts you on a much better ground. If you have Windows 8, you should update to Windows 8.1.
