Hello .About two months ago while I was updating my Windows I saw a special
offer by Microsoft to update to Microsoft Update.It allows me to update all
Microsoft products.
But I want to get back to Windows Updates only.I really can't stand
Microsoft Updates and I do feel it works slower than Windows Updates.

I can't do System Restore because a lot of time has passed and many changes
have been done.How could I restore to Win Updates,please help :-)
Thank you very much ! kr

Go to Microsoft Update > Click on "Change Settings" (left pane) > Scroll to
bottom of resulting window > check "Disable Microsoft Update software and
let me use Windows Update only" > click on "Apply changes now".

In the left hand panel of Microsoft Updates window there is a CHANGE SETTINGS
option. Click on this and "opt out of" Microsoft Updates. It will revert back
to Windows Update.
