Avira: It’s all fixed, and Microsoft has stopped blocking the six problematic patches
Posted on May 2, 2019 at 09:14 CDT by woody • Comment in the Forums… even though Microsoft still says they’re blocking …
I just got word from Avira saying that they’ve installed an automatic update to all affected Avira users, and that Microsoft has stopped blocking the problematic six (now, with the Rolllup Previews, nine) patches.
There’s still no reconciliation between Avira’s claim of sluggish Win10 1809 behavior and Microsoft’s silence on the topic. But the bottom line is that all’s well in Avira land.
