hello folks

my pc informs me about windows updates that i have to install and i am asking about them because i was wondering is it normal that i got windows update in daily bases? basically most of them say "This update contains improvements to the printing components on your system and to the Microsoft XPS Document Writer. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer. Once you have installed this item, it cannot be removed." and should i do them?

I would install them but then, not restart my computer. That'll show 'em who's boss. Wink

Kidding aside, it sounds like a routine update that should be installed.

...unless she's caught in a repeating update. You know the one that keeps saying you need to update a particular piece of software you do so and when you restart it asks again to update the same thing again. (Lather,rinse,repeat).
