Hi Fernando, I've never had a need for Silverlight, & it has never been installed on this computer, but I only started receiving updates after reinstalling MSSE. I made sure that Silverlight wasn't installed by searching the registry, IE, & Firefox, but then after looking in Windows updates / change settings, I noticed this checkbox was added with the MSSE reinstall, & was checked / turned on,
Give me updates for Microsoft products and check for new optional Microsoft software when I update I'm pretty certain this option is the reason for the Silverlight updates, but I don't want to turn this off because then I won't get updates for other MS products I have installed. So, hiding the silverlight updates is what I'll do! LOL Thanks much. Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement.

However, if Silverlight updates are continually unhiden, be aware that it is actually an add-on for IE. Try opening IE, going to Tools and then Manage Add-ons. In this dialog, find the Microsoft Silverlight plugin and disable it. Do similar steps in other browsers for which Silverlight plugins are installed, such as Mozilla Firefox. Hope it helps! -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike B.

I do not have Microsoft Silverlight installed, but I'm receiving updates for it that I have to hide whenever I get the notification. Does anyone have any tips on how I can stop receiving the Silverlight updates? Or, even though Silverlight is not installed, is there a setting in IE11 that can be changed to stop Silverlight from updating? Thanks much. Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool.
