It's just a cautionary warning I give people as most don't know what to look for or don't know what they are seeing.Generally installers are unnecessary third party software that often have other software piggybacked on them and or want to set themselves up as the primary installer, typically not a smart idea. Many also have ad popups attached so not the best of ideas there either.Download the GWX Control Panel.I have disabled the GWXUX that keeps popping up "psst" boxes off the tray, and I'm sure it's no accident those boxes are completely blank in the hopes you'll click something without being able to see what you're dong. In the past I have removed the KB3035583 update, only to have it reinstall itself. Now I can't re-uninstall KB3035583 --- I can see it sitting there but when I go to the list that actually lets you uninstall ---- it doesn't show up.

Why do you advise the standalone as opposed to the installer? I just downloaded the exe.
I know what you mean, but after checking out other people's experiences and watching the install, I didn't see any of that going on. Saw no changes anywhere except that, and this may be subjective, the whole system seems to be smoother now.
This appears to be a white knight just doing what's right for the community. I searched for complaints, couldn't find any.
Plus, I want the tool to stay updated for when Microplop counters it and requires a counter-counter. Or as the old Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon would have put it, the anti-anti-missle-missle-missle.

I'm not a "business owner" --- I'm a freelancer. I'm hired for the occasion. And in any case, while I have an IT guy down the road for when I need one, I don't figure I should need one for the goddam OS platform. That's an outrage.
But I was already incensed years ago when I saw "Welcome" popping up on the startup screen. Excuse me--- "welcome"?? I *PAID* for you, you don't "welcome" me!
That speaks volumes about their irreparably patronizing attitude. That and their infantile "my computer" icons...

No, actually I don't. I have skills and equipment, and I'm hired to use them. That simply makes me a freelancer as opposed to a statutory employee. Part of that deal (lately) is that I do the entire gig on my own, including booking my own travel and using my own equipment. That is taking on risk, sure, and that risk has to be addressed. But it's not "owning a business".
By the way this site has a quote feature. Why don't you use it instead of being obnoxious.

I dumped AVG about a a decade ago when they became as intrusive and resource hogging as Norton, went to Avast. I use the Avast free which does have ad popups that can't be blocked but in settings I only allow the ad popups one second so they're gone before I can read them. Panda Free is another really good AV but has the same popup messages that can be minimized to a 1 second duration.It's just a cautionary warning I give people as most don't know what to look for or don't know what they are seeing.Generally installers are unnecessary third party software that often have other software piggybacked on them and or want to set themselves up as the primary installer, typically not a smart idea.
