Often, these matters are down to the way the options to opt out are presented.Īt any rate, according to a statement just released by CCleaner, the firm believes that the issue has been resolved.Ī CCleaner spokesperson told us: “We are in the process of engaging with Microsoft to understand why CCleaner was recently detected as PUA.

The company observes that while the CCleaner installation process does provide a way to opt out of putting these extras on your PC, as you would expect, the judgment is that “some users can easily inadvertently install these bundled applications”. Microsoft further stresses that those bundled apps are perfectly fine and not in any way malicious, of course, but it’s the way that they are offered for installation which is problematic. It is supposed to be less obtrusive and less disingenuous 'persuasion' than tried in previous attempts but I'd still watch out for the reappearance of startup "telemetry gathering" Windows updates from now on.Those bundled apps include Google Chrome browser, Google Toolbar, and Avast Free Antivirus plus AVG Antivirus Free (note that Piriform is now owned by Avast, which also owns AVG too). Apparently there are still almost as many Win7 users as Win10 so MS obviously want their money and personal details badly.

On that PC I'm using an older version of AVAST but I know there are others here using v or earlier with Windows 7 too so I thought it worth posting to say that there appears to be no problem with installing KB4493472 if you're using this, admittedly pretty niche, OS/AVAST version combo.īTW from today MS are apparently going to be targeting Windows 7 users again in an effort to get all those using it to "upgrade" to Win10. That is, or should be, a one time, normal additional startup item immediately after a Windows update. As usual after a shutdown/restart the resource gobbling Window Module Trusted Installer Service did run. I fully restarted the PC this morning just to check again and all seems good.

Just want to confirm so far so good on a Windows 7 Pro 64bit PC that I'd been holding off installing this month's Windows updates because of the concern expressed not just here but in other places too:-Ģ019-04 Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows 7 for 圆4-based Systems (KB4493472)

Windows Update error still exist so I would like to fix it as soon as possible and reinstall AVAST, especially Avast Security Browser. March 17, 13:07 - installing of 4th update -failureĪvast Support recommends to rename INFCACHE.1 file to INFCACHE.1.BAK during reinstalling Avast software ( ).

This time it fixed 16 errors, 2 remaining, with "avast" in the log as well. I decided to uninstall AVAST (using avastclear.exe) and restart KB947821 tool.
