    Warning - KB3004394 corrupts system files


    In today's set of Windows 7 updates there is the above KB that corrupts system files - at least in my system. I immediately noticed that my Magnifier .exe was dead and it also mucked around with my Rocket Dock. When you run the updates, you better deselect or hide that one.

    I did the updates today, fortunately that one failed during the update installs.

    I can confirm I've done the update, and my magnifier doesn't work. Maybe one I'll have to uninstall if I find any more problems.

    No problems here. The synergy of even a single computer can be troublesome. Last week I had a problem with Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit not allowing an MS Office program to open. The folks at Malwarebytes could not duplicate the specific problem on my box, though the latest release solved the problem for others that had the MS Office problem. So they asked for help debugging through my box. One computer in who knows how many.

    Hope MS fixes the bugs for those that have them because of this update.

    This is why I don't install M$ updates until Saturday morning.

    No my magnifier doesn't work and if I try to load it my start menu freezes and all buttons are unclickable until a reboot
