    Automatic updating, what to do?


    Hi, all

    My pc is always updating automatically. Sometimes when I am working, and a certain program freezes, I want to restart my pc. Then the system will update and I have to wait. It's really annoying especially when I'm working on something emergent. Is there a way I can stop the automatic updating process? Thank you in advance.

    Hello Cabinet,

    If you like, you could disable automatic updates. :)
