Updates :: How To Select Which Update To Be Installed
Feb 3, 2016
I have a problem with a video driver that wants to be installed, but when it's installed the system becomes unstable (it can hang or automatically restart). This is a long standing problem on certain ASUS notebooks with certain NVIDIA display adapters. The driver is for the NVIDIA GeForce 9650M GT display adapter on an ASUS M70Vn with a 64-bit architecture. I am currently using the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter, which provides a stable environment and works good enough for my purposes.
How can I prevent the NVIDIA driver from being installed with the Windows updates? In earlier versions of Windows (for example, Windows 7), you could select which updates to install by putting a checkmark in front of the updates you wanted installed. Not so with Windows 10. All you get is a list of updates that are available and a click-box that says "Install now". I'm running Windows 10 version 1511 (OS Build 10586.0).

I have run the Microsoft Office Cleanup tool, that did not solve the problem.
I have run Avast Register Cleanup, that also did not solve the problem.

I realized recently that I don't have a default browser, so I went to Settings, then to Default Apps to select one. However, when I went to choose a default, I got a message saying that "There is no installed app for this type of file or protocol."
Where there should be a list of browsers for me to choose from, there was only a link to the app store which took me to a page entitled "Results for 'http'." What is going on? I have Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer installed on my computer, and they showed up on the list of apps under "Apps and Features."
I tried to choose an app by file type and by protocol, but got the same results. I also tried to set defaults by app, and upon selecting Google Chrome from the list, clicked "Set this program as default," but nothing changed. What should I do to fix this?

Have upgraded to Windows 10 and currently windows update shows 4 updates ready to install and one ready to download. It has been like this for the past few days. Locked with nothing being uploaded/downloaded/installed. Prior versions of windows allowed the user to select which updates to download and install. Is this still possible with Windows 10?

1) Does 10 check for check for updates automatically? if so, how do I turn that option off?
2) Earlier I checked for updates and it automatically started installing as soon as it was done checking, is there a way to select which updates to install?
3) How much does the battery drain if you have the "hey cortana" voice activation on?

I cleaned installed Win10 Pro using the Media Creation Tool and how come I only got 3 updates? I am assuming I would get more updates than these.
Running version 1511 build 10586
Is it because Win10 is too new ???
And I kept pressing the Check for Updates button and it said no more new updates.

Windows 10 x64
As I have multiple retail license keys, I am unsure which one is in use right now.
There are 3rd party key finders that may show the key in use, but I prefer to obtain the key using Windows own tools, if possible. For instance using a CMD.(Am uncertain about these 'key finders': can they be trusted?)

I'm trying to intstall updates for Windows 7 in Control Panel/Check for updates/Install Updates, but Upgrade to Windows 10 is on screen and I can't seem to proceed without the update. I already tried it and I don't like it so backed out. I don't want to upgrade and want it off of my computer. How do I remove it and all the components associated with it? I only use it for personal use, email, Facebook, a few games, etc. and not for business. 10 was too confusing and there's no one over my shoulder teaching me a new system and where all my stuff went.

I've disabled automatic updates (drivers, Win updates) by making changes to Win 10. Now every entry in Update History is listed as a failed update. Of course, no update has failed; I don't want to install them yet. Is there a way to delete failed update entries?

I am trying to get the little Reserve Windows 10 icon to show up in the taskbar of the new laptop I purchased. After some hunting around, I saw that one of the updates which must be installed is KB2976978. However, it is not being listed on Windows Update, and is not in my list of installed updates either.

Received an update notification in Windows 10 update screen.
When I press the INSTALL NOW button, the spinning circle appears and says in motion without starting the install.
I have minimized the window and also checked the task bar. Still the install does not take place.

I'd like to have an icon or shortcut to Windows Update, preferably in the Start Window.
Currently I have to type "Update" in search to get there. 3 steps, very clunky.
In Windows 7 we had a link in the Start > Programs Menu. Something like that.
