      FYI: Win8.1 has an SSU issued this month kb5016264 along with the usual offerings. – remember to check WU again once SMQR is installed (whenever updating)

        Monthly Rollup KB5015874 (and SO KB5015877) contain ESU licenses and keys support, including Client ESU as well
        they might extend Windows 8.1 for ESU eventually, or it’s just generic licenses for completion

        • #2460261

          Could also be a generic for Server 2012 R2?
          I’d presume 2012 R2 only, read template.

          • #2460298

            Server 2012 R2 will officially get ESU, the licenses are also shared with Server 2012 R1

            Windows 7 also got licenses for additional 3 years of ESU, it’s not clear if they will use them or they add them for confusion

      Coincidentaly Office 2019 for Mac got a brace of updates today, I thought Office updates came out on the 1st Tuesday of the Month?  Its a sporadic arrival at best for MacOS last batch was May I think.

      Screenshot-2022-07-12-at-10.00.47

      Anyway up to now no apparent faults comparing the 2 machines here. (See inset for Version numbers etc)

      • #2459992

        Non security Office comes out on the first Tuesday, security updates for Office come out on the second Tuesday.  Typically Mac releases are often delayed another week so for once they are timely.

        It can be suppressed similar to Win7 one

      FYI, I just went to install the July updates on Windows 11 x64 and was stuck in a reboot loop until the changes were eventually rolled back.  I don’t really have time to investigate further at this point and I have them paused for now, but I figured I’d post here to let you know it seems like there’s an issue.

        I had the exact same problem on Win 11 updates – –  being stuck in loop of trying to install then rolling back and then repeating 4 more times.  I stopped the updates after that.

        Hi ibell63:

        Any chance you have Malwarebytes Premium installed on your computer? I noticed there are a few recent topics in the Malwarebytes for Windows forum about issues installing KB5015814 on Win 11 computers, but the general consensus (at least from the Malwarebytes employees) is that something other than Malwarebytes is causing the problem.  See:

        ———–
        Dell Inspiron 15 5584 * 64-bit Win 10 Pro v21H2 build 19044.1766 * Firefox v102.0.1 * Microsoft Defender v4.18.2205.7-1.1.19300.2 * Malwarebytes Premium v4.5.11.202-1.0.1716 * Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.6867

      Both the Monthly Rollup (KB5015874) and Security-only (KB5015877) state the following:

      “Starting with this release, we are displaying a dialog box to remind users about the End of Support (EOS) for Windows 8.1 in January 2023. If you click Remind me later, the dialog box will appear once every 35 days. If you click Remind me after the end of support date, the dialog box will not appear again until after the EOS date. This reminder does not appear on the following:

      Managed Pro and Enterprise devices.
      Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Enterprise and Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro devices.”
      “Managed” for Pro and Enterprise most likely refer to computers that are part of/joined to a domain and managed by an IT Dept.

      It will be interesting to find out if this notification can be permanently disabled via the registry or deleting scheduled tasks as was the case with Windows 7. Or even if possible, subsequent updates may re-enable it? I have not had a chance yet to install any updates on either of my two Windows 8.1 Pro systems to test this out. But hopefully I will have a chance in the next few days and will report back what I find.

      Yesterday I had no problems updating the B side of my dual boot daily driver.

      KB5015814 2022-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 for x64-based Systems
      KB890830 Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool x64 – v5.103

      installed with no hiccups.  The A side was a very different story.  Updates would download and begin installation, then “Restart required” and I clicked the  button.  Updates would not complete, then try to revert, then get into an endless reboot cycle.

      I restored my drive image, Restorehealth and Scannow turned up nothing, and I tried again.  Same result.  I restored a previous drive image, Restorehealth and Scannow turned up nothing, and I tried again.  Same result.  So I went back all the way to the Windows 10 image before I had upgraded to Windows 11.  Scannow found and repaired corrupted system files.  I checked for updates and installed

      KB5015807 2022-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 21H2 for x64-based Systems

      No hiccups.  Then I went through the Windows 11 Upgrade again.  That completed successfully, so I ran Restorehealth and Scannow (found nothing), checked for updates and installed

      KB5013889 2022-06 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8 for Windows 11 for x64
      KB4023057 2022-04 Update for Windows 11 for x64-based Systems
      KB890830 Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool x64 – v5.103

      No hiccups this time.  Windows Update says I’m up to date.  Both sides are working normally.

      Always create a fresh drive image before making system changes/Windows updates; you may need to start over!

        Then I went through the Windows 11 Upgrade again.

        To clarify, the first time I upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11 through Windows Update, I was logged in as a local account Standard user.

        When I was going through all this on July 13th, I logged off my local account Standard user and back on with a local account that is a member of the Administrators group.

        I almost always run as a Standard user, and hardly ever use an Admin account.  To me, that was the underlying cause of the issue I had July 13th.  My Windows 11 upgrade from Windows 10 as a Standard user was somehow incomplete.

      No issues to report on two Windows 8.1 Pro systems.

      After taking a Macrium image of the system, installed the Servicing Stack Update first (KB5016264) downloaded from the Microsoft Catalog. Then via Windows Update installed the Monthly Rollup (KB5015874) and Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 3.5, 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.7.1, 4.7.2, 4.8 for Windows 8.1 for x64 (KB5016568).

      Last step was to disable the End of Support (EOS) notification via instructions here (A big thank you to abbodi86 and Susan!):

      Getting reboot loops on my Azure Virtual Desktop VMs (Win 10 21H2 multi-session + O365 apps installed from gallery) when this CU is installed.

      Have to mount the OS disk in a Rescue VM and use “DISM /Image:<path_to_offline_image> /Cleanup-Image /RevertPendingActions” to fix.

      How this isn’t already a troubleshooting process in Azure or part of Startup Repair in Windows Recovery is beyond me.

      Anyone else noticed that with this update it broke automatic maintenance, it will now never complete…

      Normally, maintenance completes before power management suspends your PC; if maintenance completes when scheduled, it will not automatically run again until the next scheduled run. If it is interrupted, however, it will restart the next time your PC is idle.

      With this update, now no matter how long you leave the system idle, automatic maintenance never completes, it’s always says in progress…

      I’m on Windows 10 Pro for what’s its worth.

      Also I did notice this part in the Event Viewer when trying to find any clues as to why this stall was happening, in tasks, I noticed this;

      Maintenance Task “NT TASK\Microsoft\Windows.NET Framework.NET Framework NGEN v4.0.30319 64 Critical” requests computer wakeup during next regular maintenance run.

      Might have something to do with what’s blocking things from finishing? Still don’t have a solution though.

      Hello, on a Asus FlipBook TP412 Win10 21H2 unit a user proceeded to install KB5015807 Monday and it killed the wireless network (realize this is what I signed up for, but what fun talking over the phone with a non-technical and mainly Apple user on initial troubleshooting and uninstalling the KB on company assigned system with no local admin access to the user).

      After uninstalling KB5015807 / rebooting wireless came back with no issues.

      Have my IT colleague issuing a support call to Asus, along with checking Reddit and seeing what comes of it.

      Quickly scan the above and didn’t see a similar issue, though if I missed it, my apologies.

      Take care,

      I would like to do an in-place repair install for Windows 10 21H1.

      The MS download seems to be only available for 21H2!

      As Susan Bradley advises us home users not to go for 21H2 yet, what can I do?
