Quicken2k Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 how does one hide an update from microsoft/windows update? I dont like a few updates and i dont want them showing up next time i do updates.Do you mean from inside Windows Update/Microsoft Update just click the plus sign to expand the update info then check the box don't show this update again. That's it.Quicken2k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 There is a trick involving DataStore.edb that you could try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just place the folder structure you've described at the root of your source files. Just be sure that the following lines exist in your WinNT.sif file:[Unattended]OemPreinstall="Yes"Or can I just replace the DataStor.ed_ in the Microsoft Update cab (that I am already integrating into the slipstream) with the renamed from DataStor.edb from that link?I don't know the "Microsoft Update cab" to which you refer. If it's an addon then yes, you should replace the fie within with your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
