    A question about Simplix


    I used Simplix to update my new 7 install and after that there where still multiple updates for Windows alone. What's up with that? Does Simplix not install it all? I know that there are undesirable updates which is why I decided to use it this time but to still have to hide so many updates after running it kind of has me confused. There where over 60. Although after I hid them simplix ran a couple of times more. Now my ignored is at 1 important update, 4 important security updates, and 6 recommended updates plus rollups or rollup previews. Those 2 additional rounds didn't list many updates installed. Can anyone provide more insight?

    If you used version 23.9.15 of Simplix UpdatePack7R2 to bring Windows 7 up to date to September 2023, important/recommended/optional updates that are being displayed by the Windows Update app are outdated.

    Select and hide them all.
