8 - Will automatic updates change my existing settings? Automatic updates will not change your existing settings. This means it will not add the small changes in the new default firewall policy. But this can be overcome by using Stealth My Ports Wizard.
But please note that because of the optimizations in this version, if you do a clean install, you can get a faster and a more compact D+ policy while CIS learns your existing settings in a new way.
