  PATCH WATCH

  

  By Susan Bradley

  We’re at the dividing line. We are working on getting July’s updates installed and reviewing whether we have Windows 10 22H2 installed. Meanwhile, that window of opportunity for installing updates is closing soon.

  But that’s just the Windows side of the patching world. On the Apple side, we’ve had to deal with zero-day patches this month. Not to be left out, Android is doing last-minute beta testing on Android 14 beta 4.1.

  So you want to install just SOME updates but not all?  You want to continue to defer updates but the clock is running out?

  If you want to defer updates MORE than what they already are, disable the internet, Unpause the patches (resume), it will start to try to scan for updates but can’t because it’s offline, now reenable the pause and finally, reeenable the Internet.

  Now you want to install SOME updates but not others? Use WUmgr tool. You can then selectively install just some updates and not all of them.

  (kudos to Geekdom for posting that detailed post about how to download and use the tool)
