Enabling or Disabling
Automatic Windows Update
Depending on your
settings, Windows XP and Windows 7 may routinely activate the Windows Update
feature to scan for and download updates to Windows XP
or Windows 1 automatically. If you have a fast Internet connection, and
usually don't remember to check for updates yourself, you'll
probably want this feature turned on. However, if you already
check for updates, and would rather not have your work
interrupted, you'll probably want to disable automatic updating.
- To control or
disable automatic
updating, open the
System icon
in Control Panel
(or right-click
My Computer and
select Properties),
and choose the
Automatic Updates
tab.
- To check for
updates manually,
open Internet
Explorer and select
Windows Update
from the Tools
menu.
