in using windows XP I'm, constantly having to turn off the latest build or version or updates for Java .. I think as we know Java does not support windows XP since 2016 (?),, I know when I click to install it blinks off afetr a few seconds and nothing is downloaded .

My current version of Java is is version 8 update 151 (build 1.8.0_151-b12
(this windows XP Pro 5.1 2600 service pack 3 build 2600 .. )

I can cancel/ turn off,.. etc but where to stop the reminders? would it be in the registry if so does anyone have the correct key and workaround ?


thanks
