Explanation

In order to accomplish the task, you will have to hide the optional update by right-clicking on the update you want to hide, and selecting the Hide updateoption. The Hide updateoption stops Windows from notifying you about updates that you have already decided not to download or install. Answer: D and A are incorrect. By changing the Windows Update configuration, Windows will not be able to automatically update the computer with the latest updates available. Moreover, it will increase the administrative burden on you to regularly check for updates and implement them if Answer: B is incorrect. By deleting the optional update, you will not be notified for some time, but later on the update will be downloaded again because of the auto-update settings. Then again this update will be prompted.
