• Patch List for May 14, 2024

    We’re still in testing mode for this month’s updates. So far there has been an acknowledged deployment issue whereby Windows Server 2019/KB5037765 may fail with error code 0x800f0982 when you have multi-language packs installed and do not have en-us language pack support installed. Microsoft is investigating.

    Microsoft is rolling out the lock screen ‘widgets’ on Windows 11 and I will have all the info in Monday’s newsletter on how to block them.  Personally, I think they are silly and a waste of coding time.  I’m not THAT into sports to want NBA results on my screen thank you very much.

    This week I’ll want you to pay attention to Apple updates and browsers. In the meantime for business patchers I have some long term patching changes that I’ve listed on the Master Patch page.
