    Where can I get the updates to fix the PrintNightmare RCEs?


    Windows update on my Windows systems have not, repeat, NOT shown any of the out-of-band updates for PrintNightmare. It is not clear where I should go to download them directly.I am, as security measures, curtailing printing, internet connection, and remote connection to my Windows systems; this is being posted from a Mac. Having to restrict Windows is rapidly becoming annoying.

    :)

    FIXED!! Windows 7 sp1 never ends searching for updates

    Yeah, I've been noting it for months on the refusenik thread. They do NOT want anything older than 10 running.

    I still have an HTPC on W7, and every other month I have to fix the update agent in order to get all updates. SMH....

    You provided a good step by step fix. I've bookmarked it for future reference.

    Programs not working

    In post 26 there were steps listed to fix the operating system corruption.
    Are you able to follow them?
    In post 29 was the suggested dism repair command.

    Where can I get the updates to fix the PrintNightmare RCEs?

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Where can I get the updates to fix the PrintNightmare RCEs? :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
