I have this "update" called KB15597 and every time i try and turn off my computer it tries to update and I have to hide it. I want to remove it from my computer for good and be done with the thing.
 
Hi

It is likely it is being downloaded every day so you have to stop windows update downloading it again

If you run windows update manually you will get a list of updates available and can disable the update you want to stop

It might be useful to find out what this update is for and how to fix its failed install

This is windows defender based which is not needed if you have a good internet security program
