Damn, yeah, same for me actually. After I found out that Microsoft was including that crap in updates for Windows 7 & 8, I also completely disabled Windows Update.
It would be really nice if there was some site that kept an up-to-date database listing of all the KBXXXXXXX update numbers that include this crap (up-to-date being the key here since Microsoft actually renames old KBXXXXXXX numbers every once in a while to include the same crap the old KBXXXXXXX did).
- yuhong 11y agoEven Susan Bradley don't bother and simply recommends disabling the Diagnostic Tracking Service instead. It is not exactly the same as in Win10 BTW.
- Dylan16807 11y agoI don't think they rename them. They make a new version that unhides the update, but it keeps the same KB number.
- arm 11y agoThere have been some updates in the past that people are suspicious have been renumbered¹, although I suppose that without confirmation from Microsoft, we can’t say for sure. ―――――― ¹ — http://www.eightforums.com/windows-updates-activation/66805-update-kb3022345-renamed-kb3068708.html http://www.eightforums.com/windows-updates-activation/66805-...
