How can I remove Live Tile updates in Windows 8?
Solution 1:
You can disable live update for each tile by right-clicking it and choosing "Turn live tile off":
Solution 2:
In the interface, you do not have an option to change a live tile’s update frequency. There might be some registry hack to do it.
An easier way would be: To turn off individual tiles, right-click the tile on the Metro startpage, and select the turn live tile off option on the bottom toolbar.
