Windows 7 annoying "Unsupported Hardware" pop ups

I, just like most users hate Windows 10 for so many issues and bugs. It has usability issues and so many problems that Windows support team chooses ignore despite multiple complaints. Microsoft knows this very well but they keep hush about all this. Now to add to it, Windows 7 (the best OS so far) keeps giving a warning that my Intel Core i7 (7700k) processor is not supported.

I'm sorry but Windows 10 is officially the **** and buggiest product I've ever used. And I'm never going to switch to it until every problem has been fixed. Please do something about these annoying "unsupported processor" pop ups. If this is not resolved soon I'm going to write an entire blog about this and I'm sure there are many users who feel the same. Now this is not a small issue and I suggest to take this at the highest priority.

Every user should be allowed to use whatever version of Windows that suits their needs and is comfortable to use.

I believe it to be an effort by Microsoft and Intel to force users to buy new processors and new operating systems. That offer little more then more intrusive ad's and spying on there users.

My problem is totally resolved, I tossed everything, all discs that run on windows including flight simulator is gone. Tired of of having to babysit everything. I am totally Linux now and havent had to touch anything a several weeks, all the games run smoother and everything just works.

Hello everyone,

this issue is caused by any release of the Security Monthly Quality Rollup now.

Updating Windows can continue after uninstalling the previous release.

I don't have neither KB4012218 nor KB4015549 installed. Checked via: Control Panel / Programs / Uninstall a Program / View Installed Updates and also via wmic qfe | find “4012218”. Yet I have the same problem. Any ideas?

Thanks.

I have an i5 -7500 processor and i'm suddenly getting the same annoying pop up, i don't have either of the updates previously mentioned and the pop up appears every 10-15 minutes and is driving me potty. Any ideas how to kill it other than my attempts at shouting at the pc?
