Windows Updates

[Brian]

When I download Windows Updates, the updates download to
my Backup Drive (F:) and install to my Primary Drive
(C:). How can I download AND install to the Primary
Drive (C:).

Whenever I go to Windows Update, I have to disable the
Backup Drive (F:).

Thank you,

Brian

The WUpdate folder? I don't know what formula the site uses when figuring
out what drive to place the folder on. It usually selects the first drive
it find with "adequate" free space. I delete mine after updates. Have found
it on almost all of my drives at one time or another. I don't think there
is any way to change where the folder will be place... unless perhaps you
try creating a WUpdate folder manually on C:? If the folder already exists,
perhaps it will be used instead of being created again?
