For the second time in two months while checking for windows updates after installing newer updates it detects a older update from the past 2013-2016 which was never installed on my system. Any clue as to why this is happening? I did a clean install back in December of 2016. The update that popped up to install last night was KB3185319 which was released back in September of last year; this update was suggested after installing KB4012218 March 2017 preview of monthly quality rollup.

Hi snoopy567, welcome to the Forum.

I think these updates re-appear after they have been updated by MS & instead of issuing a new KB number they just re-issue them for reinstalling.

Interesting theory. It just concerns me due to the fact that this was a security update, and It makes me feel like I should do another clean restore.
