    Delete Google Update Service For Ever!

    Hello,
    i supposed to be a simple one, but I'm struggling with this one for weeks now and I have not managed to solve it.
    Google installss ervices on my machines which I'm monitoring these machines with the "Windows by zabbix agent active".
    Every time that google installs updates/upgrades creates Items in all my host to check if the updater service is automatically ON. To be honest, i do not care if this service is on or off and i want to delete this trigger.
    I tried to disable them, to delete them but after updates new trigger is active with the new Google Name Version: (i.e. GoogleUpdaterService125.0.6386.0" (GoogleUpdater Service 125.0.6386.0 (GoogleUpdaterService125.0.6386.0)) )

    Macros in template {$SERVICE_NAME_NOT_MATCHES} (or similar)... add GoogleUpdater.* Set "keep lost resources" to 0, observe, if those items disappear after next discovery run...

    That service used to (and is in some cases) called gupdate, but seems that it is different in some versions of windows(??) server 2022 shows gupdate, w11 shows GoogleUpdater....

      I would add in a Discovery rule on Tamplate -> windows services discovery -> Filter -> GoogleUpdaterService[a-zA-Z0-9]* and GoogleUpdaterInternalService[a-zA-Z0-9]*

        And you will fail... as your regex will not match.. :P Name has "."-s in it... but you only consider letters and numbers... GoogleUpdaterService[\.|\d]* will work.

          Thanks Cyber, your solution "GoogleUpdaterService[\.|\d]*" works :-)

        Could you please show screenshot of this configuration? I tried to follow your instruction but it still not filter.

          Just it works for me.

          Custom Expression was essential to work.
