What are you thinking to do Brds7t7 ? Support for W7 ends in 2019. I can tolerate as everyone here have a list of patches are not installed but they are all as optional or recommended. But see the Windows update that is pending to download the "security package" (plus extras) is another matter. As to no longer sleep peacefully, like right now XP
I do not know. I think give in to this change because right now my mind is on other things that added to all this is already a lot. Some here have already installed packages and so far so good. Except a user who had to uninstall it by finding certain problems : Anything undesirable in KB3185330 or KB3188740? I have no intention of moving to Windows 10 at the moment. I'll continue to use 7 until 2020 then carry on with 8.1 for a while. |

These patches are not for security included in the package are the "recommended" ? If it were so, even changing the option of "not receiving the recommended along with importants" would not help prevent that. That option would no longer have any function.

According to MS there will still be some separate updates which MS classes as "out-of-band" updates, so the option could still have some function. This will only really apply to people who have their updates set to automatic install anyway. It won't really make any difference to users who have their updates set to "check but don't download".

If I am understanding this thread correctly. How far back do the Monthly roll-ups that you get through windows update go back?
On a side note, it also makes belarc advisor useless at least for updates. |

For Windows 7, I think the first one was the May 2016 Rollup. The October rollup was the first one under the new windows update policy.
