!WARNING! monthly rollups do NOT include security updates!!
figured I should let everyone know this is vital
you'd think that by installing monthly rollups you can dispense with the monthly security updates - that's FALSE
I tested this myself, I downloaded the KB4056897 security only update (it's suppose to be the meltdown/specter patch)
next I downloaded and installed all the monthly rollups starting from KB4054518 (the last rollup before KB4056897) to the march one KB4088875
and I installed them one by one
(I know they're suppose to be cumulative but just in case ^^ )
next: I tried to install KB4056897 - and it worked (windows did not show an error message)
windows is always suppose to throw an error if you try to install an update that been superseded by another update which you installed before it says "this update's not applicable" or something but here it said nothing & let me install the fix
in other words none of the monthly rollups include this security update nor (probably) any of the other security updates too
