More Windows patches — and warnings about the Win10 1709 update KB 4089848
Posted on March 23rd, 2018 at 08:24 Comment on the AskWoody LoungeIn yet another out-of-out-of-band flurry, on Thursday Microsoft released new cumulative updates for all Win10 versions, a couple of Servicing Stack updates, two previews of Monthly rollups… and absolutely nothing that fixes the flaws in this month’s botched Win7 patch.
And the Windows Update bypassing routine blamed for the forced push from Win10 1703 to 1709? It’s baaaaaaaaaack.
Computerworld Woody on Windows.
UPDATE: @PKCano found a patch for Win10 1709 that “This update makes improvements to ease the upgrade experience to Windows 10 Version 1709.”
Go figger. KB 4094276. It’s listed on the KBNew page, but the link there (which was provided by Microsoft) doesn’t work.
