    Well i think that KB971033 (WGA), 2902907 (MS Security Essentials) and 2922324 got nothing to do in this batch.
    Oh and KB3015249 does not exist, must have been mistaken for 3075249 while gathering info from all around the web :) .

    Go abbodi1406 go ! :clap:

    Yep, that is a very aggressive script
    it's enough to uninstall the updates and disable few schedule tasks

    @J-Lawrence
    MS article states: "This article describes an update that contains some improvements to Windows Update Client in Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1", looks as suspicious as 3075851 is.

    Since the Telemetry is going to invade, one way or another, your Windows 7, i suggest to uninstall/hide the updates below if you don't use the Remote Desktop Services:

    1. kb2574819
    2. kb2592687
    3. kb2830477

    There is a way to detect to see if the updates are installed. Uninstall them and block them as well :D

    I can automate this :D. This means we can force it so that the updates are not installed again.

    I will throw you a PM with the relevant script necessary to automate this. We need to test it out!

    This thread and a thread of the same purpose over at MSFN don't list the same updates. Which one is correct?

    The KBs are the same so the script should work on 7 and 8. :)

    @ MJ: Dang it I'm 99% done with it. I even tested the script only the import-module stuff was giving me issues because i needed to run a execution bypass.

    I wanna fully 100% script before posting it on the forum thou

    Please guys, check the size of your CBS.log file after the reboot from running one of these scripts. I've seen some weird things lately and can't imagine the why of it. This is the script I used:
