Hello, NTLite. I have recently purchased NTLite and I wanted to install an Windows 7 Update automatically with NTLite. Then I clicked on Analyze and it said: "Warning (KB3033929): Can cause a reboot loop if Windows as the boot loader is not used. Make sure to change BIOS settings to enable the Windows boot loader directly when you install this update." But I do not know how to fix this. Can someone help me?

Regards,

You don't need to fix anything, Analyze is repeating MS's release notes on KB3033929.

KB3033929 is the SHA-2 code signing update, required on all W7 updates past March 2015. The same GPU advances that allow crypto mining are the same methods to break older SHA-1. Malicious actors can release SHA-1 signed drivers & code.

When KB3033929 was released, not all BIOS vendors or bootloaders supported SHA-2. Today, this isn't a problem unless you have a really old PC. Analyze is making sure you know this possibility.
