Windows Update Help

[invincible]

When using Windows Update, do recommend using the Automatic Update feature or is it better to perform updates manually, the reason i ask is because updates can put things on your computer that you don't really want, is this a issue with Windows

Thank You

What I have is the Automatic Updates on, but the option set to notify me so I can choose what to download. It's much handier.

And are the updates explained clearly before you choose to update

Thanks Auggie2k

I turn my Automatic Updates off. I prefer to just check for Updates Manually

You can find out about updates/hotfixes on microsofts website.You can go to control panel>add/remove programs and expand one of the KB# 's you see.That will give you a link to microsofts website and from there you can easily find whatever you need on any update/hotfix.
