Either by running the System Restore to before the Mistakos happened.
Or by going to Add/Remove Programs, then check the Check box on the
Top-Right hand corner to:
[ ] Show updates and remove that updates then run disk clean up and
Reboot your machine, does this help?.
 
I think you've done ot for me. Disk clean up is what I needed!! Thanks a
million.

Open windows Explorer and navigate to this path:
C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Downloads = Delete all the contents in the
right Pane/Window by Selecting all and press SHIFT + DEL.

Or you can download this tool and locate the setup.exe for this app and
remove:
http://www.ccleaner.com
Please read the help file to get the best out of this tool and make work for
you.
Good luck
