No, after stopping and disabling binisoft windows firewall control service and program, it does not work.

And I confirm that is the Binisoft program that is causing the issue.

 

I tried in another computer and it worked.

I think the reason it didn’t work on the first computer is the program binisoft windows firewall control.

You need to go into your network settings and specify the default gateway manually. Setting it to something like 10.10.10.10 will prevent any traffic heading outside your local network.

cheers, Paul

p.s. you also need to disable IPv6 if it’s enabled.

Hi, thanks for answer but this does not work for me. After doing what you say, internet access is blocked, but also access from and to other computers on my local network.

Hi, wich is the best way to remove internet access to a windows 7 machine, and at the same time have access to the local network?

As of Saturday (5/11), when I tried to patch a Win7 machine, I still was not

offered the April security rollup via WU.  Avira had been updated and the

machine rebooted before beginning.

Here’s to hoping Tuesday starts a better month for MS patches on Avira machines.

Cheers.

Windows 7 machine here with avira full updated too. I hided KB4493472 on april, and after unhiding it now, it does not show anymore.

What does it mean a password is compromised?

Hi, I tested the script bu it only list the updates. To force a manual scan for updates and installing them from the command line this worked for me:

%systemroot%\system32\usoclient.exe StartInteractiveScan

(curiously usoclient.exe StartScan didn’t work for me)

I wanted this cause I have completely disabled Windows Update and I needed a quick way to enable it, list the needed updates (thanks a lot for the script) and then have the option to let Windows Update install them or run wushowhide.diagcab to hide unwanted updates.

Curiously the script lists also all the updates hidden by wushowhide.diagcab

Is there a way on Windows 10 to look for updates without being a seeker?, like to force to start whatever Windows 10 does to look for updates? some scheduled task or something?

Yes, I know, but you know… “something” is wrong, and I don’t know what or why…

I have checked my other W7 x32 installation and does not preserve file dates  either, so I think there is some tweak I have done that is causing this behavior.

Maybe it is that I have moved c:\SoftwareDistribution to another partition and created a junction to it?

Hi, thanks for answer, so maybe something is wrong with my system?

Cause I installed the msu file:

windows6.1-kb4457144-x64_5ca467d42deadc2b2f4010c4a26b4a6903790dd5.msu

Any idea of what is causing this?

I just installed KB4457144 in W7 x64 with intel cpu with no issues.

But I realized something: I went to the system32 folder and sorted by modified date to see what files have changed, and 133 files updated, like the one that fixes the thask scheduler 0day, schedsvc.dll, have the actual date and hour I executed KB4457144, 2018-09-12 8:45.

I thought every windows file (at least exe and dll) would have the real modification date, I think it used to be that way. Is this a normal behavior with cumulative updates?

Not only the catalog is unknown for a lot of windows users, there is a lot of patches called hotfixes which are not in the catalog that fix a lot of things that are broken in Windows 7.

A while ago I wasted  hours and hours trying to know why an scheduled task was running as soon as I woke up my computer from sleep, until I discovered that the option “run task as soon as possible after a scheduled start is missed” (wich I had unticked) was broken in Windows 7, and there was a hotfix to fix it.

So I do not understand why they don’t fix it in a Windows Update patch for every regular Windows user.

I just  searched  for updates and KB4088875 does not appear anymore??

But be aware that before you run sfc.exe you must enable it again if you want the log to be created.

Nope, I have an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU and I checked the registry and my Avira antivirus has created the key.
