Patch Tuesday April 2015
Have these reared their head yet? Won't be home for a few hours but am wondering if it's a heavy one - do the updates seem safe?

I got 10 Windows updates and 10 Office 2010 updates for Win 7 32 Bit.
All 20 installed successfully.
I rarely see the notification before Wednesday morning, which isn't a problem since I wait until Saturday morning to download and install them just in case one or more of them turns out to be problematic.

I got 22 offered. First time round 20 installed but it reported 2 of the windows updates failed. But after the reboot finished I tried them again and they went in absolutely fine. System seems ok with no nasty side effects. Thank gods that's over for another 4 weeks. It is definitely not my favourite time of the month!
W7 64-bit here went from a 30-40 second start up to 3 minutes after the WUP. It keeps the totally black screen forever!
I tried to do a clean boot to see if I could find the issue, W7 no longer booted up. I have W10TP on a separate physical HD with W7 as the default. It was trying to boot into W10TP but even that fails but during the boot up, my monitor goes into sleep mode. I'm guess that it can't boot into W7 so it then goes to W10TP. Never had issues like this before.
Restored an W7 image and back up but not sure if W10TP got hosed as well. Don't knoe if I should install that mess again or just hide all of them and wait for a fix.
Just installed all 13 offered updates (after holding off for a few days to see how things shake out).
All installed successfully and computer is working fine.
As posted on the News topic on this, I've not installed the updates yet but on switching on my main computer just now I have been offered one less than previously, the standard monthly Malicious Software Removal Tool being absent from the list.
