Ok thanks again Brink, I am back on 1909, I probably had it on Sept. 10th but win update tried to take
me to Win 2004 and failed multiple times, I even tried a Clean Install ( not stable) so I ended up Macrium
Imaging back to 1909 for stability last week, so I guess Win Update is still correcting itself again.
No idea why Win 2004 does not like this X99 system as I don't seem to have any of the known Issues.

In the following case, Revo Uninstaller took care of that. It should be safe to do so.
KB4023057 Microsoft Update Health Tools Installed?

New #35
Yesterday I received a notification to install a Critical Update, namely KB4023057.
A quick search alerted me that this was another MS hijacker tool designed to enable Windows Update for automatic download and installation and to seize control of my PC again. I have Windows Update disabled with Matthew Wai's CMD & VB scripts.
Microsoft pushes out KB4023057 yet again to force Windows 10 feature updates
Realizing that this KB has been around for awhile I searched my Windows Update History and learned that it had been installed this past July. I had Windows Update enabled for a short period for some maintenance function and it must have sneaked in.
I used Revo Uninstaller to remove KB4023057 without any incident. Obviously, Matthew's solution had protected my PC since July even with this KB Hijacker installed.
Using CMD script and VBScript to control Windows Update
UPDATE:
I just finished following the same process as above to clean out this MS hijack tool on another household PC.
This second PC was using another Windows Update prevention tool before recent times and also had this KB installed as of last July. One more PC to check.

Hi Yuniel, Matthew's scripts (link in post #35 above) will provide everything you require to disable windows update and still maintain downloading definition files for Windows Defender. As far as I know, if you use wumt by itself, you will also disable the WD definitions which I see almost daily.
This excerpt is from Matthew Wai's link posted above;
"When auto-updates have been disabled, the daily check for updates and Windows Defender update will also be disabled. So, I have been using Task Scheduler to run two VBScript files, ①"WDD_Updates.vbs" and ②"Check_for_updates.vbs", which will do the following in the background:
① Update Windows Defender at six-hour intervals.
② Check for other updates every day. Bring up a message only when updates are found.
"WDD_Updates.vbs" will install definition updates (KB2267602) and updates for antimalware platform (KB4052623). The core commands in "Check_for_updates.vbs" are extracted from Microsoft Docs. My simplified version only searches for updates but not downloads and installs them."
You can download wumt here. And yes, I'd say it's pretty safe and used by many users here and elsewhere.
