How do I stop Win7 telling me about a whole bunch of updates I'm not intereted in - specifically, about 30 language packs?

819932 2009-10-12 20:52:00 If its like Vista, highlight them right mouse / hide update. Dont know if you can do them all at once. You may have to do them one by one Speedy Gonzales (78)
819933 2009-10-12 21:17:00 Bingo! That did it. You can hide multiple updates by doing the CTRL / SHIFT select thing and then right-clicking.

Thanks.

819935 2009-10-12 21:25:00 yes you can hide multiple updates with shift, then right click.

Great way to get rid of all the Language Packs available to Win7 Ultimate

Then, right-click on any of the actual items themselves and hit "Hide Updates", and it'll now hide them all :)
