• Microsoft still offering this month’s Word 2016 patch, KB 4011730

    Posted on March 19, 2018 at 13:32 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    Remember KB 4011730, the security patch for Word 2016 that clobbers Word unless you install the non-security patch KB 4018295? Susan Bradley, Patch Lady, described the symptoms on March 14.

    Microsoft hasn’t pulled the patch. It’s still available in the Update Catalog. Hasn’t pulled it, hasn’t fixed it. At least they’ve acknowledge the bug.

    Rick Podrick just tweeted:

    MS still hasn’t pulled KB4011730, the Word 2016 patch that kills the minor function of opening/saving Word files. It appears to happen for everyone. What is MS thinking, since this is clear-cut?

    Very good point, that.
