Incorrect registry       edits can cause system instability, so proceed with caution.              1) Open the Run dialog box by pressing the Windows key + R.       2) Type regedit and press Enter to open the Registry Editor.       3) Navigate to the following key in the left-hand pane:              HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate.              4) If the WindowsUpdate key does not exist, right-click on the Windows       folder, select New > Key, and name it WindowsUpdate.       5) Right-click on the WindowsUpdate key, select New > Key, and name it       Notify.       6) Right-click on the new Notify key, select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value,       and name it DiscontinueEOS.       7) Double-click the DiscontinueEOS value and set its Value data to 1.       8) Close the Registry Editor and restart your PC for the changes to take       effect.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
