KB3054476 offered as "Important"/"Recommended"/"Optional"
Hi:
Looking for insight/advice re: KB3054476.
According to Infoworld, it was "Optional" in May, but I was not offered it then.
This week, it was offered as "Important" and "Recommended" (!), but only for one of my 2 Win7/64 boxes.
I have read the MS KB article, as well as THIS FORUM THREAD, the latter of which includes a report of a BSOD due to this particular update.
However, there isn't much out on the web about it.
And most of the discussion about it is overly technical for me.
And I am confused as to why it was previously offered as "Optional", but now is "Important" or "Recommended".
I don't *think* I "need" it (as I have no webcam on this box). And I don't like to tempt fate by fixing things that are not broken.
So, 3 questions:
- Is it safe to install?
- Is it really necessary/important?
- Or would I be OK to hide it?
Thanks very much in advance!
