Fixes for missing DLL after Windows 10 update December 2015

[AsteriaStarfall]

For anyone that would like to prevent Windows 10 updates from updating their computer in the future, in the "Search the web and Windows" bar at the bottom type services.msc Run the program listed, which will require administrative permissions.

Scroll down the list until you get to Windows Update, double click it. Stop the service, then use the drop down menu for Startup type, and set to Disable. This will prevent all windows updates from occurring. If you wish to undo, repeat the procedure and change the startup type to automatic.

This will prevent all windows updates from occurring.

While I hate Microsoft as much as the next person, keeping it updated is kind of important given it's the most vulnerable OS in the world. In order to stop Windows 10's shenanigans it's safer to just get rid of that particular update and keep it away (forever). I did this to make it go away. Hasn't come back yet.
