Back when Windows 10 was first released and for several years after, Microsoft provided a tool allowing you to show and hide updates if there were updates that were causing problems, called wushowhide. This tool is hard to find and the platform it is built on is now deprecated, so I wrote this simple Windows program to hide any unwanted Windows updates. Simply run it, wait for it to list all your available updates, and type the numbers of the updates to hide, seperated by spaces.
Note: Due to how the Windows update API works, this program requires administrative privileges to run.

@TheQuinbox Just tried that link with firefox and Chrome and it gave me a 403 forbidden. Very strange. Windows updates are pure evil!
@jmd2000 Oops... forgot to chmod o+r it. Try now.
@TheQuinbox cool, it worked!
@TheQuinbox Thank you :)
@TheQuinbox thanks a lot for this. There's a broken driver from HP here unable to update since months.
