    this is weird, as I updated 2 windows 7 installations and in both cases the SSU KB3177467 got installed after a reboot after the installation of the CU KB4462923 :confused:

    KB3177467 is exclusive update, it will not offered in WU unless you install/hide all other updates, even optional ones

    that's why they paused KB4462923 currently, it doesn't show in WU unless you install/hide all other updates too

    On machines with the predecessor installed, that update will only register metadata and won't require any reboot. As it looks, the files are the same, only it is now released as security update.

    I don't know how new this is, but MS seems to have disabled the hotfix and the fix it downloads:
    The Hotfix service is no longer available
    Easy Fix solutions are no longer supported or offered for download

    They are too hurry to reach 2020? :g:

    hotfix download links still works for now
    either hotfixv4.trafficmanager.net or hotfixv4.microsoft.com

    They rely on Spyware Telemetry now. It's hip!

    Maybe they are going to make Windows 7 updates full cumulative soon?
    Maybe they are going to make Windows 7 updates full cumulative soon and all the hotfixes will be integrated? :rasta:

    I remember few time ago Microsoft promised to release a full cumulative update at the end of 2018 which is supposed to replace KB3125574, but there is still not news about it.

    Don't get me wrong, but i don't thing they're gonna bother with an OS
    that has come to an end (for them) and when they have so many Windows 10
    builds to pet. You see that i didn't mentioned anything about Win 8.1.

    They already canceled that

    specially that 98% of Win7 hotfixes are included in Convenience Rollup KB3125574
