  • Batten down the hatches for January updates

    Posted on January 10, 2023 at 12:13 CST by • Comment in the Forums

    #PatchTuesday

    As the wind blows in California where I live, we’re trying to batten down the hatches (as the trite saying goes).  So batten down the hatches on your computer as here comes the January Windows patches

    98 updates.

    1 publicly disclosed.

    11 critical

    Stay tuned and remember to defer at this time and I’ll be reporting on any side effects and issues.

    Remember it’s the end of the road for Windows 8.1 and the last of the updates for Windows 7 ESU.

    I’ll be discussing options you can take for these two platforms (yes once again 0patch is coming to the rescue)

    Don’t forget the OTHER needed updates:  Chrome, Firefox (14 critical), Citrix, Foxit, VMware.  As always don’t forget to check your browser updates.

    Edit of 1-12-2023.  I’m not sure if this is a coincidence or not but I’ve had to run the QB tool hub tool to fix printers on two of the three test machines at the office. All other printing was fine, it was just printing a report from INSIDE of QuickBooks that wouldn’t print. Ran the printer fix up tool and all was well.
