It used to be that I'd get the little shield icon in the bottom and a
message that updates were available. I'd click the shield and up
would come a list box. I'd get to look over the updates, accept or
deny, and say "Download." They would download in the background, and
then notify me that they were available for install, and I could put
that off until it was convenient (not running anything else in case
the updfate required restarting the computer).
Now, I see my shield icon - and if I mouse over, it tells me it's
downloading and what percentage of completion. No other
notifications. Then, when I go to shut down, it defaults to the
option of "Install updates and shut down."
In the control panel, I've checked the option of "Notify me but don't
automatically do anything". Windows seems to be ignoring me, though.
Is there anything I can do to get back to the way it used to be?
