now that the free offer for W10 has closed, I'd like to know if W7 updates are now safe to upload?
That is... that no more hidden/tricky files still being sneaked into my PC.

That Sir, is a very good question but one I don't have an answer to at the moment. Hopefully some google searching will shed some light on it.
I would expect MS to pull all those updates that push windows on us now that the date has passed. That would be a proper cleanup exercise.

I have started downloading my Win7 Important Updates (after checking all of them the past year so M$ would not cram Win10 down my throat), and I have not encountered any of M$ attempts to force me to convert to Win10 any more.
