Microsoft changed the signing of update packages for Windows 7 and Windows Server R2 devices on the August Patch Day for the first time. We published an article in about the change stating that Windows 7 and Server R2 systems needed certain patches to continue receiving updates.
SHA-1 is not included anymore and that appears to be the reason why error 0x is thrown on those systems. Microsoft revealed that certain Symantec and Norton software installed on Windows 7 or Windows Server R2 systems does not play nice with the change and Microsoft made the decision to block updates on machines running Symantec and Norton software until the issue is resolved.
The security solutions may block or delete Windows Updates. While it is possible that the issue is related, e. Two updates need to be installed on Windows 7 and Windows Server R2 systems so that SHA-2 signed updates are installed correctly:. If one of these is not installed, SHA-2 signed updates won't be accepted and the error is thrown instead.
Microsoft confirms that KB is a prerequisite on the support website. The company lists KB on the page as well stating that it strongly recommends that it is updated. SSU updates are installed automatically if Windows Updates is used but need to be installed manually if updates are installed manually.
Customers who use Windows Server or Windows Server R2 products and services should migrate to Microsoft Azure to take advantage of three additional years of Critical and Important security updates at no additional charge and modernize when ready. For environments other than Azure, we recommend customers upgrade to the latest version before the deadline.
For customers who cannot meet the end-of-support deadline may purchase Extended Security Updates to keep server workloads protected until they upgrade some restrictions apply. We recommend that you migrate to Azure or upgrade to the current product versions before the support end dates.
This lets you take advantage of the latest product innovations and make sure you have uninterrupted support from Microsoft. The Azure Migration and Modernization Center has a full range of tools available to help you assess your current on-premises environment, migrate your workloads onto Azure, and optimize your Azure usage to best suit your needs. Microsoft also works with many Partners, who are available to help you at every step of the journey.
