I can, and have, checked the little box that says never ask me again about this file but guess what? Since the date is part of the file name then when the next update comes along it considers the file as something new and so wants to download it again.Īlso, I noticed that Vista machines don’t seem to have this little checkbox. It should always ask permission and allow me to opt out of this and future installs. Also, new software should never install automatically. I’m a little annoyed at this because I feel the MS Update Center should only update existing software on my system, not install new software. I currently do NOT have MRT.exe on my machine (xp pro) yet each month MS lists this as a download that is pre checked so that if I use the express download option it would automatically get installed. However there is an aspect that you don’t mention and is hard to find on the web.Įven if I don’t want this software Microsoft continues to try and force me to install it.


MRT I appreciate the time you took to explain this piece of software.
