    That's the PCIClearStaleCache.exe file
    it only can go away by metadata supersedence, which preview rollups don't have over security rollups

    another mess in Win7's lost-cause WU :)

    Then there's no point in keeping Windows Update service running, is there? I've been keeping it disabled ever since I started using simplix's update pack back in June 2017 and I have not seen any need to enable it, as it causes more harm than good lately...

    "Never check for updates" is enough

    the service won't be running 24/7

    it's needed if you use Microsoft Security Essentials, because the definition updates are downloaded through Windows Update.

    I have my Windows update shut down and My MSE gets updated just fine.

    Seems to be working fine.

    Strange. I'm not getting the KB4103718 or KB4099633 through Windows Update (W7 Ultimate x64) on one of my machines. Got them on another one also with W7 Ultimate x64.


    EDIT:

    Solved(?):

    I didn't get them when WU searched automatically. Decided to do a manual search and wham. They showed up. Installed them and no issues so far.

    Hi I'm doing a clean Windows 7 install and checking for updates it showed:

    2017-12 cumulative update kb4054518 (the catalog says it's superseded)
    2018-05 cumulative update kb4103718
    2017-09 NET cumulative upddate KB4041083 (the catalog says it's superseded)
    2018-05 NET cumulative upddate KB4099633
    ...
    ...

    So I installed everything but the 2018-5 updates and after restart I checked again for updates and installed
    2018-05 kb4103718 and KB4099633.
    Then I restart again and check for updates and it's asking me to install:

    2016-9 kb3185319 (I think it s the last ie11 update before the cumulative updates)
    2014-8 kb2676562
    2016-1 kb3123479

    So, what's going on? Is this normal?
