Confusion reigns supreme for admins facing this month’s patches

Posted on September 28, 2019 at 06:22 CDT by woody • Comment in the Forums

Site admins I know are livid about this month’s mess-ups. Read this Twitter thread from Bryan Dam:

Note: None of these are security updates and the KBs don't list the IE vuln. Apparently how you handle a zero-day being actively exploited is to push out a bunch of non-security updates to your customers.
Win 10: CU on the 23rd list the fix.
For 7/8.1: Fix isn't listed anywhere.

There are thousands of threads (especially on Reddit) from people shaking their fists at Microsoft. And these are Microsoft supporters!
