I am new to using WSUS and had a question on cancelling an update.

Yesterday I had a suer who was having some issues getting an update and I
wanted to cancel the deployment to him. How is this best done.

From what I have seen in prior posts you need to stop the update service on
the users PC and clean out the C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download
folder.

Is this correct?
