| 567586 | 2007-07-10 06:21:00 | Hi folks, I've just noticed in CCleaner that I have a great pile of MS. stuff:: security updates, win XP updates & hotfixes, can someone tell me if this stuff is supposed to stay or be removed, thanks, don g. |

| 567587 | 2007-07-10 06:26:00 | Where are these entries in ccleaner? Tools/uninstall tab?? If theyre here, then no, dont uninstall them. These are the same updates/hotfixes in add/remove programs. |

| 567589 | 2007-07-12 03:04:00 | Because theyre security updates. Uninstall them if u like. You'll have to reinstall them later. Tick show updates in add/remove programs, if u have XP SP2. Then you'll see them. |

| 567590 | 2007-07-12 10:03:00 | The Microsoft updates don't show on the uninstall section of CCleaner - at least not on my PC. I would imagine you have the Hotfix Uninstallers ticked under the advanced options. This will remove your Windows Updates from WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB$, so you will not be able uninstall the Windows Updates. In other words it will remove the option to uninstall them, it will not uninstall the updates themselves. Have a read here: www.internetrotsyourbrain.com |
