    KB3035583 just came through this morning. It looks like a correction release for some of the GWx group issued earlier. It's listed as "Important".

    The Get Windows 10 (GWx) group was the one that was filling my Event Log with errors so I uninstalled it. This one is going to the Hide box too.
    I installed KB3035583 on 8th of April (I installed OS that day so perhaps even an older one).

    Regarding my earlier post, I don't get a nag screen for W10 TP or any rogue programs running (at least to my knowledge) when KB2990214 is hidden, the rest are installed.

    I received KB303558 this morning. It was marked Important, but I have hidden it until I see more about it.

    Edit: That was KB3035583 (my mistake). I was marked Important, but now that it has been hidden it is showing as Recommended.

    You probably won't get any nag screens until W10-RTM is released. It's still in testing now.

    Also, check your Event Log > Application and Service Logs > Microsoft > Windows > GWX-Ins > Operational. That log folder went away when I deleted the updates back in March. Until then, I was getting errors so something was running. You better look harder.

    Hey, thanks for that info. Definitely it is running, there used to be lots of errors, now there are like 1 error (file not found) per PC start. I guess I will try to uninstall these updates as well (not sure if I will be successful as I did clean up windows updates files :) sometime ago).

    Yes, of course. Thanks. I don't know where I got the other number from. I had XPPro before W7, but I still mucked up. And I'm not planning on upgrading beyond W7 for a long time, so hiding it and the other upgrade updates is the plan for now.

    Edit: Now I see what I did originally. I left the last digit (3) off of the update ID.

    The KB3022345 issue may be a regional thing and is definitely tagged as important for me.

    Well, I guess some updates show as optional or recommended depending on the settings.

    Important updates offer significant benefits, such as improved security, privacy, and reliability. They should be installed as they become available, and can be installed automatically with Windows Update.
    Recommended updates address non-critical problems or help enhance your computing experience. While these updates do not address fundamental issues with your computer or Windows software, they can offer meaningful improvements. These can be installed automatically.
    Optional updates can include updates, drivers, or new software from Microsoft to enhance your computing experience. You can only install these manually.

    Here is how it is presented. Important on the left means Important to me.
