3 Ways to Uninstall Windows 10 Updates

It's usually a good idea to install all of the Windows 10 updates that are available. However, from time to time, some updates may cause problems. These are the times you may want to uninstall any of these updates.

In this article you will see how to delete a Windows 10 update that is already installed on your computer. There are three ways you can do this. Let's go see them:

A. Uninstall one of Windows 10 from the Settings app
1. Launch the Settings app by pressing the Win+I keys at the same time or from the Start menu. In the Settings window go to "Update and Security".

2. In Windows Update, click “View update history”.

3. In the "View Update History" window, click the first link referred to as "Uninstall updates".

4. Windows 10 will open the Control Panel and display the list of "Installed updates". The list includes updates for Windows 10 as well as other software installed on your computer. Find the Microsoft Windows section and find the update you want to remove. Then select it and press the Uninstall button from the list head or right-click on it and click on "Uninstall" in the small window that will appear.

5. Τα Windows 10 σας ζητούν να επιβεβαιώσετε την σας, ρωτώντας σας αν “είστε βέβαιοι ότι θέλετε να καταργήσετε την εγκατάσταση αυτής της ενημέρωσης”. Απαντήστε Ναι αν επιθυμείτε, ή πατήστε το Όχι αν έχετε αλλάξει γνώμη.

B. A. Uninstall an update of Windows 10 from the Control Panel
For Control Panel enthusiasts, we have the corresponding process to uninstall an update from Windows 10.

1. Open the Control Panel. A quick way is to write the control panel words at the start and then click the program to display.

2. Navigate to "Programs and Features" and there in the left pane, click "View installed updates".

3. The control panel will open the list of "Installed updates". Then follow the same steps with step 1 from step 4 onwards.

You can also uninstall Windows 10 updates using the command line or PowerShell.

1. Open a Command window ή Powershell με δικαιώματα διαχειριστή. Αν δεν ξέρετε πως, τουλάχιστον για το right-click on start (or press Win+X at the same time) and select “Command Prompt (Admin)”

The above command displays all the system updates installed for Windows 10. Find the code name of the one you want to remove, and then type the following command to uninstall it: wusa / /kb:onoma , where "onoma" is the identification number of this update.
