Micrsosoft Failures Continue...

Windows 10 had two updates that are/may be blue screening computers right now and causing connection problems to the Microsoft store and several programs are not working...

The problems "MANDATORY" updates are KB3147461 and KB3147458...

...we say mandatory, because you don't have a choice of what updates you can install, drivers, critical and optional all lumped together in one download session...

By default you don't update windows this way, you always do critical first then optional and never the drivers...

However, we have a system that we are setting dormant until each month is over to wait to hear if windows rolled out a bad egg because we know windows rolls out bad eggs...

This way we can test the updates on a system that isn't in production first before we roll them out onto the Production systems...

As for our production Windows 10 systems we have Windows Updates turned off, like we have done for years because we don't want our users struggling...

Windows 10 is not like other windows operating systems due to them forcing ALL updates onto your computer so why they are hard pressed to continue with the Patch Tuesday detail seems a little aggressive in our opinion...

Apple and Linux don't have updates that come out like that, so why are you doing it Microsoft...

Microsoft it's Vista 64 bit all over again, you need to stop listening to the voices of users and test your product before you send out your updates...

There is no reason for you to be pushing out updates like you're doing, none whatsoever, relax MS, and test your software updates first...

On our test machine the only update we didn't see was KB3147461, so we're going to assume that this was the update that waxed peoples system...

We loaded KB3147458 and we didn't have a problem, test system is running smooth...

We'll be upgrading our production systems one at a time or grouped based upon the system similarities until all are done so as not to have an Armageddon on our hands, you should think about doing the same thing...

Satya, if you were a cook and put out that many raw chickens to patrons, not only would you lose your job, but your business would be closed down either by the Health Department or Word of mouth, either way, you'd be screwed blued and tattooed kid...and that's a fact!
