    Is it possible to set updates in a way that only security updates will be downloaded?

    After the last system update kb.....28 several apps no longer worked properly. I have reset to the reset point before that update.... and everything works fine again.

    I have stopped updates in services, but if possible I want to updates to security updates indefinately

    Is that possible?

    Thank you

    Is it really the update causing this?

    The problems all started AFTER the...28 update. I asked around, using the weather app as an example, but no solutions. I the used the last restore version, before the update ihstallation and... since then everything works just fine again. Maybe it is some MS Security "help", because Firefox stopped connected to several sites, which now are accessible again.
    I just recently switched from 7 to 11, because too many of my app no longer update, and I have been reading all these last years, what has happened top those who use 11... I admit I have been practically waiting for something like that happening to me after an update..

    I still have a clone of my last version of the Win7 installation... who knows ???
    Thanks again for your help for someone who considers digitalisation the basic cause of all the problems in this world today, and who does not even own an mobile phone
