You can't remove the entries in the Update History list.

What if I do a restore back to the checkpoint before the updates were
performed? Would the rollback make the update list back to what it was
before the updates were performed?

If you install the Update successfully it will then get rid of that failed install
in the History and overwrite it as Successful

That is the way mine has always been, also. As to whether System Restore
