Why have all Microsoft download links for wushowhide.diagcab been broken for many months?
This important Windows Update troubleshooter is the recommended solution in many Windows support articles, but for some hidden reason Microsoft have made it impossible to obtain.
- Jun 26, 2021The troubleshooter has been re-signed with a SHA-2 cert and has been republished. Thank you for your patience. As for the remaining list, I don’t have anything to add at this time but will check if there are plans to resign those.

Thanks for your question, here's the general process. Does this help? Select Start Windows logo Start button > Settings Gear-shaped Settings icon > Update & Security Circular arrows Sync icon > Troubleshoot. Next.
Hope this helps,

No, that doesn't help at all.
I'm specifically asking about the tool in the subject line to hide and prevent reinstallation of a driver update or Windows update.

If it's gone forever, please could someone at Microsoft have the decency to explain why, and tell Bing it's buried: https://www.bing.com/search?&q=Hide+Windows+Updates+or+driver+updates
