• New mystery patch KB 3152599 for Win10 showing on Windows Update servers

    This from ch100:

    Just noticed that I received KB3152599 Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 and Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 for x64-based Systems. It’s marked as a “Device Access Broker ACL.”

    What seems unusual is that this patch is flagged as Updates in WSUS which is normally the category for Recommended and Optional using the pre-Win10 naming convention.

    I don’t remember previous patches for Windows 10 flagged as “Updates”. All the other were either Security Updates or Critical Updates or the new Upgrades for the major ones – Service Pack like, i.e 10240, 1511.

    There is no KB published yet, so I don’t have further information.

    UPDATE: Rod Trent reports from WindowsITPro:

    I’m told that this update should have never shown up in the normal WSUS infrastructure. The update is only intended for Insiders as part of the pre-release ring and is meant to fix an issue specific to the Start Menu in the Windows 10 upgrade process.
