• Windows 7 Monthly Rollup patch is out

    The guesses were right. Late today, January 4, Microsoft released the usual Patch Tuesday Monthly Rollup for Windows 7.

    KB 4056894 2018-01 Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows 7

    I’m installing it right now on my “Group A” test Win7 machine, using Windows Update.

    The description only mentions the Meltdown-related patch. As far as I can tell, that’s the only fix for Win7 in January.

    No word yet on the Windows 8.1 Monthly Rollup. No word on whether we can expect another Win7 Monthly Rollup this month – but it seems unlikely.
