Hello,
The yellow windows update shield does not go away after installation, and will go through the install cycle again if clicked. What's the fix?

The yellow shield notification indicates available windows updates pending installation... which means the yellow shield will go away when;

a) all updates have been installed

b) when you set windows updates to fully automatic in: Control Panel \ Security Center \ Change the way Security Center Alerts me \ uncheck Automatic Updates \ Automatic (Recommended)

c) Or when you just disable the shield in: Control Panel \ Security Center \ Resources \ click on Change the way Security Center Alerts me \ Uncheck Automatic Updates
