Probably a silly question.

I have Kaspersky Plus running on my Windows 7 SP1 machine.

Last restart was sometime last week. I restarted it just now (Sat evening) and saw the Windows alert to not unplug the machine because Windows was installing an update. Same when it started, the warning about configuring the update.

All updates are turned off in Windows Control Panel, still are after this happened, and have been for a time frame measuring in years, I manually installed a few things as needed to run Kaspersky and Nord VPN, so the only program with permission to do this (and presumably, a reason) to mess with Windows Updates would be Kaspersky, I'm not running any trial modes of other security software. I have very little other software on here, Foxit, VideoLAN and Audacity (only used when offline). Nord has stopped doing its own program updates for W7 as well.

Before I uninstall it and dig further, can anyone verify whether this was actually Kaspersky? It seems bizarre. I truly never thought I'd see that screen again on shutdown...

Hello @Tabby,

the only idea I have is the upgrade of your Plus from version MR20 to MR21 (21.21.7.384).
The upgrade has been distributed recently and the Windows installer is used for installation.
Can you please check if the latest version of the Plus is installed? Then we have a candidate.
I can't find any other update on my W7 system.
