I just updated one of our W7 Pro SP1 64-bit machines with four Important updates, and after an hour lost in a coma, the machine finally booted into Windows successfully. So far, so good.
I then did another check for any further Important updates and KB3177467 appeared. As that seemed like an old KB number, I checked my installed updates and found that KB3177467 had been installed on 24May2017!
I searched for info on this anomaly and found a comment about this KB3177467 perhaps being a new version of the older KB3177467, but I’m unclear as to whether it is safe or advisable to install this current KB3177467 or whether, since this computer is running well, it’s better to hide this new KB3177467 update and leave well enough alone.
In the absence of definite information to the contrary, I’m thinking it’s best to follow the old rule, “If it ain’t broke…..” However, better ideas will be welcome and appreciated.
