[QUOTE="ebocious, post: 1036195, member: 75834"] Windows Updates install fine. Comodo allows you to create rules for folders, files, processes, and even hashes. If an app has a dedicated file for updating, you can add an ignore rule in auto containment for that one file, while keeping the rest contained. But that's if you find an application that is actually hindered from doing so.
