[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 583031, member: 32260"] [B]Fresh installed Windows 7 tested with Hard_Configurator[/B] (All SRP + All Restrictions turned ON except "Hide 'Run As Administrator'", because "Run As SmartScreen" is not supported in Windows 7). After 223 updates, I checked Event Log. One update was stopped by SRP in the User Space: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\NVIDIA\NvBackend\Packages\000063ef\DRS update.18761999.exe So, I Installed this update manually with "Run As Administrator". It seems that blocking 'C:\Windows' writable subfolders has no negative impact to Windows Updates in Windows 7 OS. Anyway, it is good to look sometimes into the Event Log to check if SRP did not block something. Now, I'm going to test Windows 10. :) [B]Remark.[/B] Updating fresh Windows 7 is rather a painful task, because of "Windows Update is taking an unusually long time to scan and install updates" problem.
