how can I configure windows or solidworks So that....

(OP)
Dear folks,
Could any one please let me know if I can Configure either my Windows or Solidworks so that It does not automatically get upgraded through my internet connection.

I remeber that there is a place in Windows that I could go ( probably CONFIG ) for doing this but I do not exactly remeber how.

I appreciate any help.

regards,
Brother

RE: how can I configure windows or solidworks So that....

What version of windows?

If XP, then go:

start>accessories>system tools>security centre

Click on automatic updates at the bottom, then say turn off auto updates.

The same security centre can be accessed through control panel

I am an Engineer/part time student (Mechatronics) from South Africa.
Advice from lecturer: "Be warned - when you go into industry your boss will give you a thousand things to do and he wants them done yesterday!" So far he is right...

For SolidWorks, go to Help > Check for Updates. When the SWIM opens, deselect (or choose) the update frequency.
