MS-DEFCON 4: Time to get the July 2019 patches installed

Posted on August 2nd, 2019 at 11:20 woody Comment on the AskWoody Lounge

There’s some important new information for those of you installing Security-only patches for Win7 and Server 2008R2, and there’s an unconfirmed report of conflicts with McAfee Endpoint Protection (again), but for the most part “normal” users should be OK to install this month’s patches.

Details and step-by-step instructions in Computerworld. Woody on Windows.

UPDATE:

Anybody who sees KB 4023057 should follow the discussion and advice here:

https://www.askwoody.com/2019/microsoft-re-re-re-releases-kb-4023057-the-update-to-win10-1507-1511-1607-1703-1709-and-1803-for-update-reliability/

It’s now being pushed to 1809 as well.

In short, you probably don’t want it.
