Is there a way of doing this? Updates of this item always fail, and I have found no viable solution. As I run a proprietary antivirus package I do not need the MSRT. Can it be uninstalled? If so, how? If not, is there a way of telling Windows 7 not to bother updating the MSRT? How might I find the MSRT in Windows Explorer so as to remove it? I am running Windows 7 Home Premium.
