DSTM Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Hi. Try this. 1. Click the "Start" and TypeCommand Prompt in the Search box 2. Right click on "CommandPrompt" and click on Run as Administrator. 3. Type "netsh winsock reset" (without quotes) at the command prompt, and press Enter. 4. Try the update again. Quote Confidence, is the feeling I get, moments before I stuff something up.

Top man, it worked thanks, but now I have a red X where my internet connection is (the screen) at the bottom right hand side where it shows you have a connection, and that bloody windows 10 logo is back again, but thanks I have a working virus killing machine again at least!!

DSTM Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 The Windows10 logo is easy to remove. Look in your installed updates for KB 3035583 and uninstall that update. Don't automatically install updates.Set to manual how you recieve updates. Next lot of updates find KB 3035583 highlite and choose "Hide this update" It won't bother you again.
