Solve : How to deactivate other microsoft updates whereas its option has been locked? |
|
Answer» Hi. What Organization is this message in your screenshot referring to? It looks like it has a group policy controlling this, as if its a corporate computer where your not the admin of it and not permitted to make changes and thats why its greyed out.? No sir, it's my Home PC. Thanks for your attention. Quote from: BC_Programmer on August 10, 2017, 01:46:15 PM The disabled option is unticked. For instance, I want to disable Microsoft Office's updates. Or for example Skype updates. And what ever which is not a main update like the pasts. I just want to RECEIVE main windows updates and driver updates like before. Quote from: Mark. on August 10, 2017, 03:28:56 PM that message "some settings are hidden or managed by your organisation" I see when I use ShutUp10. (maybe other similar products have the same side-effect) The only settings I changed is "automatic updates" from this cmnd: win+R >> gpedit.msc >> ... And I did it about one year ago. But the problem I mentioned to in this thread, happened recently. Quote from: BC_Programmer on August 10, 2017, 01:46:15 PM The disabled option is unticked. Is there anyway to deactivate receiving these updates? Here is the updates I don't want to receive. And I did not TICK the option of receiving these: [attachment deleted by admin to conserve space]I don't think you understand... Each app has settings for updates...and you have to set them all Simply turning off Win updates for example has nothing to do with what Skype wants to do...or Office...Windows Update does perform the Updates for things like Office and Skype. Which is what the "Give me updates for other Microsoft products when I update Windows" Those aren't updated when they are unticked. Only reason I can find for the checkbox to actually be disabled would be in domain environments with special group policies in place, as it isn't even available in the group policy window, so I don't know why it would be disabled. I'd think Mark had the right idea- this is probably something that was caused by an aftermarket utility you may have run for privacy or telemetry concerns. You might try undoing the changes with said program if you did run it. Otherwise, you can try the Windows Update troubleshooter, Start->Search "Troubleshooting" should find it, it's listed as "Fix problems with Windows Update". When you start the troubleshooter there is an "Advanced" link in the wizard- you'll probably want to click that and then click the "Run as Administrator" link before running the troubleshooter. patio is right, with Windows 10, it's all or nothing, but in the specific updates you have shown, you are lucky in that they are all Microsoft based so you could go to Start, Settings, Update & Security, Advanced Options, and untick Give me updates for other Microsoft products when I update Windows.Unfortunately as per his original post, that option, for some reason, is disabled and inaccessible.ah, yes, it is, SORRY, forgot about that screenshot. |
