Patch Lady – August 9th updates

Posted on August 10, 2018 at 15:00 CDT by Susan Bradley • Comment in the Forums

Abbodii reminded us on the Patchmanagement.org list that the KBs that some are seeing released on August 9th are merely the infamous two year old update meant to pave the way for future feature upgrades. As Abbodii reminded us, it’s had over 25 releases/re-releases so far.

The next update – only out on Microsoft update – not on WSUS, nor on the catalog site will be offered up to some, but not all machines for various unknown issues:

Using the principles of the monthly Windows Servicing guidance of being Simple, Predictable, Agile and Transparent, I rate this not being transparent as it could be.
