re: cannot disable auto update Sunday, August 15, 2004 at 8:31 am Windows Me Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Jack Gulley (5917 messages posted) Take a look at page. You have to disable Automatic Updates in the Control Panel, in IE Tools - Internet Options - Advanced tab, and kill WUCrtUpd.exe which should have an entry in MSCONFIG Startup list and be listed in the Add/Remove Programs. In the Windows ME install, there is a built in version of the Windows Update program that has problems and you have to do the Update to the WUCrtUpd.exe version (which kills the built-in update program), and then take its entry out of MSCONFIG Startup list. Your problem with updates, may just be that you did not do all of the Windows Updates, including the automatic update program!
