Hi

I don`t do this

But i run now this command like the what you follow me...

takeown /f "%WINDIR%\System32\UsoClient.exe" /a
icacls "%WINDIR%\System32\UsoClient.exe" /inheritance:r /remove "Administrators" "Authenticated Users" "Users" "System"


i will update if it`s work thanks

This thread now runs to more than 50 pages. I've been following it almost from the beginning, but now feel totally lost. Does Brink's tutorial and the instructions at the beginning of this thread still apply, or has Windows 10, through its numerous updates, been inured to this process so that it no longer functions as initially intended? Could we have a formal update, and perhaps a new starting point (or even a "new and improved" discussion) on how to 'personalize' the Windows Update process? AND... if it could apply to Windows Defender updates, that would be a big help. There seems no way to control those.

Many thanks for the 'confidence factor.' A script to 'do' and 'undo' Option 5 would be very welcome too.

Great, thanks!

It seems, that I have forgotten to remove inheritance, last time I did it manually, so it did not occur to me.

Code:

takeown /f "%WINDIR%\System32\UsoClient.exe" /a
icacls "%WINDIR%\System32\UsoClient.exe" /inheritance:r /remove "Administrators" "Authenticated Users" "Users" "System"

Re-checked, the task fails to run and exe as well. Manual checking works fine.

I just had updates pushed to my machines, so I think *even this* no longer works.

It still works on my Home Edition. Today, Windows Update MiniTool found three updates, including a cumulative update and a security update, but Windows Update still says "Your device is up to date".
