Blue screen was on older amd processors. Ms didn't test.
The patch is called "2018-01 Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB4056894)" for those who want to avoid it.
Javascripts could do it, right?

They (microsoft) are even trying to say that if you want a newer Intel processor, that windows 7 won't work or they won't support it. And that you have to move to windows 10 to buy a new system. It's bullshit though! There are several youtube videos by computer experts showing that windows 7 can work on the newest generation of Intel processors….you have to have some technical know-how, and the videos instruct you step-by-step on the process, but it can be done.
Yep, if you are like me and many others who are holding onto windows 7 come hell or high water, this "fix" hits those systems hard. No way in hell am I downloading this patch.
Finally, to go a little bit tinfoil - I would not be shocked if this was a deliberate act by Microsoft to try and get people to abandon windows 7. There was a recent thing where Apple issued a patch that deliberately slowed down older phones and their systems, and they didn't tell people about it. They got caught, and then said they had to do it based on some technological reason, but many people felt the whole thing was very fishy…(in order to encourage people to upgrade)
Do I know for sure Microsoft is doing this on purpose? No. But Microsoft from the start was extremely and annoyingly aggressive in trying to get people to switch to windows 10. I mean, everyone knows this and it was to a ridiculous degree with endless nag screens and later on, very sneaky updates and all kinds of crap they were trying to pull.

Isn't it sufficient to disable javascript ?
