    DON'T INSTALL until MS releases ACTUAL information ... that simple.

    Important/optional/Critital is all a mather of perception.. which can be manipulated/interpreted to one's own benefit ... My adivce.. get informed, then YOU decide wether this is critical or not.
    Don't let MS play boo with yoo

    What if MS never releases any ACTUAL information?

    I see no reason for users to live without the benefits of this update just because of some people wear tin foil hats. Some industry articles about this particular KB are just plain stupid.

    If you look at the WU settings screen. you will see where MS can install this update without you selecting it.

    I would suggest their would be less tin foil hats if Microsoft gave complete description of all Updates.

    You are correct; however, I doubt that documenting/explaining the updates creates revenue. Given the choice between spending money on better documentation and spending it on better testing before releasing it to the public, I'll pick the later every time

    Looking into my crystal ball, I foresee less and less documentation on the horizon... or maybe it is just cataracts.

    Yea, part why I don't use Windows as a main OS.
    AFAIR we can, at least.. uninstall any windows update that was installed on this machine..

    I installed it on 03 Sept. on two out of dozens of computers that I oversee at work. No problems yet. The company that I work for wants to provide MS with telemetry. I need not wear that particular tin foil hat.

    There are several updates for which there is no uninstall process. For this update, you can uninstall it - unless it turns your computer into a brick.

    As you wish.

    Those at MS that create documentation are generally considered as overhead. They only spend money. They do not make money for MS. Do we agree on that point? Or do you see documentation as a source of revenue for MS?

    My preference for where MS should spend their money is just that - my preference. Are you requesting teaching on that too?
