Okay, how do you stop the automatic updating? How do you find that folder if you do have it?

Go into the Windows "Control Panel," select "Windows Update."

On the left side of the window, select "Change Settings."

Under "Important Updates," click on the combo-box and select "Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them."

Go to control panel, open the Windows tab, “then turn off Windows updates, check for updates from time to time and load only the ones you want?

With a hat tip to G.Orwell

CLICK START BUTTON
RIGHT CLICK “COMPUTER”
RIGHT CLICK “PROPERTIES”
CLICK “WINDOWS UPDATES”
CLICK “CHANGE SETTINGS”
IN THE IMPORTANT UPDATE SECTION SCROLL AND SELECT “NEVER CHECK FOR UPDATES”
Every now and then manually check for updates and select only the ones you want
