• Don’t apply any updates just yet

    I know the updates are out. But hold off installing them. We don’t know if there are any major problems.

    Reminder: We’re still at MS-DEFCON 2, and will likely stay there for a week or longer.

    Patch reliability is unclear. Unless you have an immediate, pressing need to install a specific patch, don’t do it.

    UPDATE: I moved to MS-DEFCON 3 on Dec. 29. Cautious patching is in order. See https://www.askwoody.com/2016/ms-defcon-3-cautiously-update-windows-and-office/
