1293024 2012-08-05 04:36:00 Hi Guys

Windows 7 says that I have some new updates to install.
OK

But one of them is an update for Office XP which I am no longer using
(Bit it is still on my machine)

There is an option to untick it.

But every time I get more updates, it is still there ready to down load and install.

I can't find a way to permanently delete this update ?

Or is this impossible and is it that I will need to remove the old Office XP installation.

I know it is possible as I have done it but I'm not on my Windows machine just now so can't help more.
