Thank you. That looks good and the unwanted settings were removed.

How is the computer running now?
Are you still having any issues installing or running Malwarebytes?

Let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with @deniarH

 

Cheers

Hello, I already manage to get the Windows Update up and running, but there's one update that I can't install, hopefully its just because of my slow connection. I will try to install malwarebytes later and I'll get back to you with the result

Thanks for the log. Please follow the directions from the following topic and clean up Google Chrome until all Malwarebytes scans come back clean.

@deniarH

After that we'll look at getting your roll-up installed

Does it error out? Having it run for hours can often be semi normal on an older and slow computer. It is updating a lot of different things.

Do you have any antivirus or other security software running?

The logs you posted don't show that it was cleaned up. It says:  No Action By User, 449, 440037, , , , , ,

You may have these updates already but go ahead and download and save them to your computer and then try to run them by double-clicking on them.
If they've already been installed it will tell you and you can move on to the next file.

Here is a STEP by STEP on getting all the Windows 7 updates.

 

 

How to update Windows 7 to the latest Security Updates

Note: You need to install file versions that are compatible with your system.
You can check here if you're not sure if your computer is 32-bit or 64-bit

 

ONLY if not running SP1

If you're not already running Service Pack 1 on Windows 7 then you will need to install Service Pack 1 in order to be able to install the other security updates below.
In the vast majority of cases, everyone is already running Service Pack 1 so you will not need to download and install these files. Simply move onto the other security updates below

Windows 7 Service Pack 1 x86 (KB976932) (most users already have)


Windows 7 Service Pack 1 for x64-based Systems (KB976932) (most users already have)

 

Enable TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 (applies to both x86 and x64)

Update to enable TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 as default secure protocols in WinHTTP in Windows
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3140245/update-to-enable-tls-1-1-and-tls-1-2-as-default-secure-protocols-in-wi

Download the following MSI installer to add the DefaultSecureProtocols registry subkey automatically which is required for the TLS 1.1 TLS 1.2 update
https://download.microsoft.com/download/0/6/5/0658B1A7-6D2E-474F-BC2C-D69E5B9E9A68/MicrosoftEasyFix51044.msi

You can manually create the Registry entries if the MSI file is not available. Copy the following code to NOTEPAD and save it as a .REG file.
You will need to place the file Save-As name in quotes to create a .REG file instead of a .TXT file such as:  "enable_TLS.reg"

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.1\Client]
"DisabledByDefault"=dword:00000000
"Enabled"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Client]
"DisabledByDefault"=dword:00000000
"Enabled"=dword:00000001

After you've updated the Registry entry you can then install these updates

The files for the actual Update to enable TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 from the article above
