Annoyed by the Google Automatic Updater service - GoogleUpdate.exe,
One of our blog reader contacted me asking for a solution to completely
remove it from the computer, surprisingly the process is pretty simple
and you just need to use Windows Add/Remove Programs
control panel applet to get rid of it, However, if you are having
problems using the above method you can manually uninstall it using the
DOS-command prompt discussed below.
- Goto Start Menu -> Run.
- Enter cmd to open the command prompt.
- Type cd C:\Program Files\Google\Update to change working directory.
- Type GoogleUpdate.exe -uninstall to uninstall.
- Reboot to complete the process.
