You can also do this by going to Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update, double-clicking Turn off the upgrade to the latest version of Windows through Windows Update, and then clicking Enabled.

Nah man, fuck the license validation update. It does absolutely nothing for legit users, and inconveniences illegitimate ones who may not even realize their copy is pirated; eg. computers built by friends.

THANKS! I went through this thread: http://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/list-of-windows-7-telemetry-updates-to-avoid.379151/ and found a reference to your site posted by a user there. I basically grabbed all updates recommended from that thread and referred links and compiled my list.

As mentioned, I have listed all the updates found on this thread and referenced and included a description based on what I found in either MS kb database and/or any negative references from other forums/websites that recommend removal from Win platform. My spreadsheet has a column labeled "remove?" to which a "1" is a "YES" and a "seems ok" is an "IGNORE"; the next column is the KB#; and finally, the third column is the description/notes I pulled from the web when i did a search on the KB# lookup via google.

i have also questioned a few of the recommended window updates as I was weary of uninstalling just anything that may have been just grouped in for whatever reason...

Why does this script suggest removing KB3139929? MS16-023: Security update for Internet Explorer: March 8, 2016

It contains also "Get Windows 10 window for MSIE".

Is there an updated list available ?
Need to reinstall Win 7 Pro on friends computer due to malware, and looking to get as up to date a list as possible.

Thanks.

I searched for Win 7 updates and found this one in my list, I did not find it in your script, so it may be good to add it ;) https://support.microsoft.com/fr-fr/kb/3035583

Thanks ;)

//edit: my bad, i was searching with incorrect parameter in Notedpad++ (entire words only) so it did not find it with only last three digits, this update is in the script.

Is this still being updated? Last time I tried to use it it seems as though a GWX entry slipped through.

So why is KB3135445 included in this list?

I have also written a batch script that removes a list of telemetry and nagware updates, and then uses a powershell module, installed separately, to silence said updates automatically on the Windows Update UI. Feel free to submit commits in case new KBs are rolled out. I am planning to keep this updated.

Why is 3050265 and 3065987(replaces the previous) included? this actually allows one to block windows 10 via group policy. Uninstalling it would break those policys and programs like Never10.

I also have questions for the reasoning of having 3102810 in this list. I cant find anything anywhere that says its related to windows 10 or tracking, only that it reduces high cpu and disk usage caused by windows update.

3139923 is listed as a GWX update When it is not. It fixes some things with msi repairs, and only causes issues if 3072630 Is not installed. Since 3072630 is not in this list 3139923 shouldn't be either.

Zelmor, thanks for your great code. I ran the batch file according to your directions on a Windows 7 Home Professional 64 bit machine. The removal of updates went smoothly. However, once the program reached the hiding updates section, I received many error messages about how the computer would not run further code without digital signatures.

Anyone here with updated list of spying updates? Most comprehensive script was probably aegis-voat but it is not worked on anymore.
It's free out there to be forked by someone and continued https://github.com/th3power/aegis-voat

@StarSphere What kind of code was you trying to run afterwards?

I found this script to work perfectly for my problem. Telemetery was causing 100% load on my SSD, and I had to get rid of it. Fast.

I'm not sure I'd want to delete KB971033 since it involves Windows Activation for your license key. The rest I have no problem with.

Great script, thanks. Have been using Anti-spy beacon 1.6 and noticed there are two entries in the 'Optional' tag that only seem to be temporarily blocked. They always come back after you re-run this app. Don't have any other info as the program doesnt seem to show it. They are 'Office 15 (2013) Telemetry Scheduled Tasks' and 'Office 16 (2016) Telemetry Scheduled Tasks'. Would be nice for these to be added. I have noticed after using your script that one entry in Spy-beacon disappeared, So maybe removing these 'Office' telemetry entries maybe possible. All the Best,

Is there any reason why you don't use a simple FOR loop instead of gazillion of lines?

I have updated @levicki's code to include options to either automatically run the uninstalls, or allow the user to review each one individually.

It would be nice to have a list that exclusively deals with telemetry updates instead of including every update that anyone else has a problem with. I don't want to remove non-telemetry updates. It should not be called "remove telemetry updates" when it removes so much more than that.
