From: rogeepete on
When I shutdown, I continue to receive a choice to install a
Windows Update or Shut down without the update. I choose
Install and the update is installed and the computer shuts down.
But every time now, I get this choice and keep installing the
update. This has been happening repeatedly for a couple of
weeks, it seems.

I cannot get the screen where I can simply shut down.

Thanks for any help

Roger

What happens if you:
1. initiate the same update
2. then reboot
3. and shut down only after this reboot ?

Asked/Answered earlier today (which you'd know if the clunky newsgroup
web-access was working...and it's not).
