It doesnt matter if i install from the site, or if I get the files manually, and install the update/s . If I say NO . It doesnt come back 5 mins later . I just finish what I was doing, then reboot . |

If you want a spiffy solution, you could create a batch file with the following command: start /B net stop "Automatic Updates" Save this somewhere on your hard drive, shortcut it to your desktop, and change the icon to a pic of Bill Gate's face, and call it something humourous! :D I think this should work . . . haven't got any updates available to test fully . |

| 637511 | 2008-02-05 01:03:00 | It wants to restart for a reason - to finish installing the new updates. Not all updates require a restart, but it pays to let them do their thing. Seen it happen a few times when people wont restart- and then end up with all sorts of problems. Just restart it and end of problem. If you are playing a game and it is annoying, why don't you simply change the update setting to notify you of new updates then install when it suits you - easiest way. |
