I just installed W7 Pro, and used Simplix to update it. After it did its thing, I decided to run Windows update, which found 25 more updates. Should I assume that these are the updates I do not want (telemetry etc)? And just leave things as they are?

I'm assuming you used the current version (23.5.10) of Simplix UpdatePack7R2 to get Windows 7 Pro up to date to May 2023.

If you check the release dates of those 25 updates which were detected afterwards, you'll likely discover they're very out of date.

Select each one and then hide it.

Great, thanks, that's just what I was hoping.
