    Yes indeed it's there, although curiously it has no publisher..?

    I'm sure you have good motivation for doing so Hazar, but since I and others have been repeatedly telling everyone NOT to install KB971033, can you please put everyone's minds at ease with a brief explanation as to why you do this with RWAT2.2.5... appreciated. :) And is KB971033 active in RWAT2.2.5, or is it disabled?

    PMR already explained it, but the idea is it makes sure the update is installed so it can safely disable it

    To restore to a clean system in order to re-apply RWAT:
    1) Right-click [run as admin] RWAT and uninstall RWAT
    2) Reboot
    3) Using Start Menu search, search for 'cmd'
    4) Right-click on 'cmd', [run as admin] and enter command prompt
    5) sfc /scannow [enter]
    6) Wait til finished. Reboot
    7) Next reboot W7 should start nagging you re activation
    8) Right-click [run as admin] RWAT and install RWAT
    9) Reboot
    10) Done.

    Open RemoveWAT and press "RestoreWAT". After that open and elevated command prompt and type:
    Code:
    sfc /scannow
    . Finally apply latest RemoveWAT again. If the "error" still occurs follow Hazar's recommendation.

    Thats because you have disabled 90% of the patch
