• Windows 7 Cumulative Update 2019

Hi,I'm really desperate right now.With Windows 1803 Microsoft has integrated a new service 'WaaSMedicSvc' which serves as a watchdog for the WindowsUpdate service.I have deactivated the Windows Update service in my environments for a good reason, because they are schools that only get updates during the holidays. In addition, all computers are equipped with a guard card - which means that after a restart of the computer,it is reset to its original state. (Only the administrator has the possibility to deactivate the protection of the card).That's why it doesn't make sense to update Windows in this environment with guard protection enabled.In the past I had two GPOs running, which I activated/deactivated on the maintenance day. One with 'enable Windows Updates via WSUS' and another with 'disable Windows Updates'.The latter simply stopped the service and set it to 'disabled'.Now this service 'Windows Update Medic Service' is spitting in my soup because my GPO is not working anymore. Hi,Thank you for posting in our forum.We could use registry value to disable it and push this registry to other computers by group policy preference.Please navigate to: Computer Configuration Preferences Windows Settings Registry.Here is the registry path:HKEYLOCALMACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesWaaSMedicSvc.The value name is Start and please set the value to4.We could refer to this following screenshot.And here is the screenshot about this services. We could see its name and Disable in startup type is the fourth one.Hope above information could help.Best Regards,KallenPlease remember to mark the replies as answers if they help.If you have feedback for TechNet Subscriber Support, contact.

Hi,According to my understanding, it should be likely same.However, I did not find this service in Services preferences.About using this preference, we may read this article for a reference.Please Note: Since the web site is not hosted by Microsoft, the link may change without notice.

Take an image backup with CloneZilla prior to making this change please.Set the permissions on the HKEYLOCALMACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesWaaSMedicSvc key to 'SYSTEM Deny'.I actually set it to 'EVERYONE Deny' but I believe 'SYSTEM Deny' would work because SYSTEM logs the error:'The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID.'

Windows 7 Cumulative Update 2019

If you set to EVERYONE DENY you can't get back to it without using Component Services Admin Tool.Once you do that, the service should no longer be in the list after restart.I update my machines regularly. After I take an image backup, I turn Windows Update On and then turn it back off. I just want to mitigate the risk of the update with a Clonezilla image on my own schedule. Windows update has broken my machinestwice and Windows built-in recovery did not work.

Clonezilla recovery worked perfectly. Security Updates are important but Microsoft is imposing in its approach and I believe violate CM policies by installing patches without allowing the user totake an image backup. Windows 7 allowed you to control when the patches were installed.

That was better. Max payne 2 system requirements. I have complained to Microsoft and received no response.
