    @Enth, when I used UpdatePack7R2-18.4.15, I was using 2016 LTSB/C-x64 has a Host OS... Maybe a DISM issue with 17133.1 ???

    My .log is similar to yours. I just notice one detail here, the windows service can not be be disabled. Error access deny. i dont know if something is broken but i fear the integration was wrong.
    In a laptop intalled updatepack7r in a live system and windows update service can be disabled.

    On my simplix'd starter(the one from the log above) there's no such problem. The error is on your end.

    /FixOn and /FixOff switches should be added to OP(force Meltdown/Spectre protection on or off)

    the only thing i make different this times was that i had dep for all program selected and UAC set full, The AV wa disabled until restart and all programs closed.

    Edit:
    /FixOn and /FixOff switches should be added to OP(force Meltdown/Spectre protection on or off)

    Is off by default, i guess. maybe google translate mess i little with the text.

    Aren't you automatically protected when you install the last update pack?

    Enabling the protection on old CPU/machines would kill the performance, specially 32-bit

    Yes, i found my main system install is corrupted, so i am preparing the system for clean install of 17134.1.

    On my test system it all seems to run fine too.

    About the new switches:
    I presume it's off by default?

    no it's activated automatically (by default)

    /FixOn : to force the switch
    /FixOff : to disable the protection

    Telemetry updates are already removed so don't worry about unnecessary updates.

    Some feedback...


    Changes in version 4.18.15

    • Added tweak QualityCompat compatibility with antivirus software to work correctly Windows Update.
    • UpdatePack7R2 automatically disables protection against the Meltdown and Spectre for Windows 7 and includes for Server 2008 R2. Use the key / FixOn for compulsory inclusion or key / FixOff to turn off the protection.
    On my W7 Pro-x64 LIVE install of 4.18.15 I had not previously added the QualityCompat and or any Windows OS updates since UpdatePack7R2-17.12.15… This was INTENTIONAL so none of the M$ 2018 updates fiasco would get installed…

    After installing UpdatePack7R2-4.18.15, I checked the system registry and per the 4.18.15 Changes above, QualityCompat was added and the Meltdown and Spectre entries were added and disabled as follows:

    reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" /v FeatureSettingsOverride /t REG_DWORD /d 3 /f

    reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" /v FeatureSettingsOverrideMask /t REG_DWORD /d 3 /f

    FeatureSettingsOverride

    3 = disable both
    2 = disable Meltdown (VA Shadow)
    1 = disable Spectre (Branch Target Injection)
    0 = enable both

    FeatureSettingsOverrideMask = 3 (Always)

    I don't like where this is going, qualitycompat needs to be handled by the running AV not set at forehand.

    The meltdown/spectre options should be set to Off by default, let the user decide whether to turn it on or off.

    As I reported previously, Meltdown and Spectre patches were DISABLED per the Changes in version 4.18.15

    We are talking about the latest one: UpdatePack7R2-18.4.15.exe ?

    So, when you run it by default will it use /fixoff or /fixon? I know this sounds stupid but 1, some non english speaking devs can talk in riddles and 2, the translators can be creative with the content ;):D

    Yes, we are talking about UpdatePack7R2-18.4.15.exe
    I checked the W7 registry before and after the installation of UpdatePack7R2-18.4.15.exe

    Previously I did not have any of those reg entries for the QualityCompat and the Meltdown and Spectre patches...
    After the installation of UpdatePack7R2-18.4.15.exe I had reg entries for all these and the Meltdown and Spectre patches were DISABLED just as Simplix stated they would be...

    I used the default settings and did not use /fixoff or /fixon keys...

    OBTW, I use the S3.Translater extension add-on with Firefox to Translate the info on the Simpix UpdatePackR2 website... It seems to do a good job of translating...
