• Patch listing updated for April 9, 2024

    Posted on April 13, 2024 at 16:28 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    Between the last of tax season and trying to track down a definitive listing of SQL updates, I finally (I think) was able to track down all of the updates being released for the Microsoft platform.

    But remember, the master patch list doesn’t just focus on Windows, I’ve also included the various browsers, Apple products and even Chromebooks.

    One thing I don’t want to tackle at this time is a listing of the various routers, firmware, NAS devices, let alone televisions that need attention.

    Case in point:

    Dlink NAS devices have a vulnerability in their older devices, ensure they are not exposed to the web. LG TVs can be hacked to get root.  Finally Microsoft starts testing ads to both advertise Windows 11 on a Windows 10 computer, as well as ads in the start screen (which fortunately can be controlled with the suggesions/recommendations setting).  Ah what fun. As usual, I’ll be gathering together the registry settings and toggle buttons should this get to the released versions. Right now it’s ONLY in the insider releases where they are testing to see what we think of it. Trust me, WE (yes I’ll use the royal WE) don’t like it.

    I’ve updated the Master Patch list for the April updates.  I’ll be updating the page for any known issues or issues that we are tracking.   Windows 10 and KB5034441 which fails to install with error code 0x80070643.  I’m sounding like a broken record on this …. it STILL has not been fixed. I think Microsoft has given up and considered this “un-automatically-patchable” and have left it to us to deal.  We deal with it by hiding it as it’s not a risk to consumers.

    Finally, if you’ve emailed the customersupport alias in the last week, I will getting back to you this week. This was our first “normal” tax season in about three years  – no delays for the pandemic or floods in California so April 15 was the normal due date this year.
