Various out of band updates out to fix January patch issues
When Microsoft has issues with updates, it normally takes until Fridayish before they identify a root cause and then it’s Mondayish of the following week that fixes get released. And here we are with out of band updates to fix the various issues that were triggered by the January updates. Now I STILL am not budging from my MS-DEFCON 1 stance of don’t patch. But if you are in a situation were you are mandated to patch, at least you can grab a fix.

Fixes to Server 2012 R2 HyperV issues – only on the Microsoft catalog site. You’ll need to manually download it and apply, note it’s a security only update, not a monthly rollup.
Bottom line, out of band updates are out to fix various issues seen in the January updates. Note that not all are out on Windows update, but rather on the catalog site.
