Hi,
Yep September round


Also got a new KB3172605 as of course recommended

 

[DavidE]

I'm confused on this update - kb3172605
I just updated a Win7 Pro x64 OS and all the important updates installed without problems.

I see Optional Update kb3172605 published today, offered to me, and it's for July 2016 update rollup.

Here is the link i get clicking on More info for this is Windows Update:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3172605

I keep my systems current, so i don't understand why i'm being offered a July Rollup update in September.

Is it just me, or is anyone else seeing this ?

 

[DavidE]

Ah, Mike posted while i was writing, he also sees KB3172605, so it's not just me

 

[ThrashZone]

Hi,
It's a rollup so I'd guess they changed something in it possibly the update client included in it.... ?
That's the wonderful thing about rollup they're like the terminator = They'll be back

 

[DavidE]

Thanks Mike,
I guess i want to install this on my test box and see how it works, and doesn't cause problems.

EDIT:
Installed, rebooted and so far so good...

 

[ThrashZone]

Hi,
No problem yep I can sense Macrium Reflect busy today

 

[DavidE]

One other "oddity" i saw today with Win 7 updates,
It seemed real slow to me checking for and installing updates compared to my last few months experience.
I then saw the MRT (Malicious Software Removal) was installing/running, and the Windows Update window displayed Checking for Updates and Creating a restore point.

After the MRT finished it's thing, everything else worked fine.

This is just an fyi, and something different for me.

 

[ThrashZone]

Hi,
Yep looking for exploits I'd guess :/

What is really annoying is it says creating restore point when I have system protection Off :mad2:

 

[DavidE]

I also have restore points turned off, imho that check should only take a second or two, and display update status correctly.

I've just never seen it run MRT as the first update before, and show "misleading" (slow) info in the Update window.

 

[astroroxy10]

Why have System Protection off?! It helps when your computer has issues and can really save you if it crashes!

 

[ThrashZone]

Hi,
Mainly because we use ssd's and we also use Macrium reflect to create system images so windows restore points are not wanted or needed to be created
They never work well anyway and just leave a system messed up too.

 

[DavidE]

I'll add:

Personally i prefer Backup Images using a program such as Macrium Reflect that creates a full backup of the OS partition(s).
Restore Points are not a full backup, and not as reliable to recover imho.
There are many threads here where a person that used Restore Points only could not restore/recover.
I don't need the "overhead" of restore points space and extra processing for something i would not trust.
If i need to recover, i use a full Backup Image, that i control.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3184143

Now that is a joyous sight to behold!

With regards to the July rollup showing up in September, I noticed I got offered it again, even though it's been installed since July. Wonder if it was reissued to fix some problems?

I remember UNI mentioned something about his company having to remove that update from all their systems.
