Hi If it is ok that manual Windows Update does not work as well: Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Wuauserv set "Start" to 4 (REG_DWORD). The service will then be disabled and will not be started at next reboot. -- torgeir, Microsoft MVP Scripting and WMI, Porsgrunn Norway Administration scripting examples and an ONLINE version of the 1328 page Scripting Guide: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scr...r/default.mspx |
