Avast & Microsoft Windows Updates [Thread To Post Results, OK or Issues ?]

[abruptum]

Even if Microsoft fixes KB3022345, I'm not going to install it.

[REDACTED]

Most people, including myself, would never know there was an issue because they never run sfc /scannow . I know I never have. That's the only thing that gets affected as far as I've seen. No essential files that actually affect the operation of Windows get damaged. I didn't install the update though.

It appears MS fixed KB3022345 with 6/1/15 release of KB3068708.

I installed KB3068708 and KB3050265 yesterday with no problems in my OS and for Avast

[REDACTED]

I installed on one W7 machine......ran SFC as well.......no errors......none with Avast either.
I did notice that my previously hidden KB3022345 was gone from even hidden options.

Is anyone able to shed any light on what KB3068708 and its flawed predecessor actually do?

It's a Diagnostic Tracking Service "This update enables the Diagnostics Tracking Service in Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1), and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. This tracking service collects data about functional issues in Windows." see http://www.ghacks.net/2015/05/12/how-to-disable-the-diagnostics-tracking-service-in-windows/ which was provided on May 13 in this thread by abruptum

hope this helps!

If you right click on the update in question you should get an option to view details.
It will also include links to Microsoft detailed information about the update.

thanks, Bob. Unfortunately the Details aren't very detailed, even on MS site. Wondered if anyone else had installed these and if there were problems.

I've installed ALL recommended and optional Windows updates for W7 on dix PCs....except for Skype....have that hidden.
All went fine with PC/W7 & Avast.
I also have run SFC on each machine....no errors.
