ps why my don't my screenshots show in the forum ?

 

I haven't read anywhere that it's been pulled.

 

hi
what the meaning of "been pulled" ?
does it mean microsoft removed from the update list ?

thanks

 

"pulled" = no longer being offered by Windows Update for those that don't already have it.

 

thanks Mrbrian!

 

You're welcome .

 

OK thanks. I haven't either. I'll wait until next week and see what's happening on 'Microsoft Answers' before deciding whether to hide that particular update or not.

 

Same here. I have no intention of rolling out anything for at least a week beyond the 1 test machine I have installed them all on. Interestingly, I have not seen any issues. Yet. That said, it did take a few days last time for them to surface.

 

Yeah, it's wise these days to wait about a week or so. It'll take them around a week on MS Answers to admit to any borking anyhow.

 

some seem irrelevant...or plain doggy

November Patch Tuesday: A massive update with a few misses
{ Greg Lambert evaluates the risks to existing applications and environments in each month's Patch Tuesday cycle.}

eg: many people don't need the MS14-078 KB2991963 (IME-Japanese Fonts);
and if you don't plan to upgrade youre Windows 7 box anytime soon to Windows 8.1 then you won't need KB2952664...
etc, etc.


And, I'm holding off KB3002885 than updates KB3000061 of MS14-058 due to possible issues as noted in the above Blog, and by
Susan Bradley in Window's Secrets 'Patch Watch'.

hark...is that angel-fire, east!
well...each to their own poison.

feandur.

 

Thanks for the information, that's really useful.

 

Agreed. Here's the correct links...

hi

may i ask a question ? or make a good suggestion
why don't open a thread with all problematic updates ? and maybe keep it updated and well-ordered

at least if someone/the comunity found a weird software or operation system behavior , at least can give a look at the thread

what do you think?

 

My preference is a separate thread for each month titled something like "Microsoft November 2014 updates".

 

That would work.

 

Microsoft does it again, botches KB 2992611 SChannel patch

 

but this is dispersive , seening how microsoft realeases buggy updates ..

i guess 1 thread with all of them it's much easy to consult
or at least 1 thread with the links of all

to avoid double or triple threads

I struggle to find the old one!

 

Good catch!
