As much as this particular feature irritates me, it's been helpful as well. But, something I installed has disabled my ability to turn on Automatic Updates. Ideas?

TIA

Like the previous post says it could be a group policy. Here is how you check:

open a command prompt by going to start and run and typing gpedit.msc
Go to User Configuration/Windows Components/Windows updates.

Is any of the components in this folder enable. If so set to not configured or disabled.
