Bork Tuesday, Any Problems Yet?

This is one of those chameleon updates from MSFT.

When it was originally offered to me (w7) it was listed as an optional update. I didn't install it. Within a few days the offer changed to important. Now I have it 'hidden' and it's listed as recommended.

 

hi
i just update w7 today
after the reboot , my installed update list was mess up
no more in details but in icons , no more sorted by date.. but random sort

have you seen such strange behavior after the last updates ?

thanks

 

A bunch of updates today (7-14-15) for Windows 7. Any dope on them?

I hide all win 7 updates except for

• Windows 7: 1 critical, 2 important (MS15-065, MS15-072, MS15-073)

 

Wish there was a judgement forcing M$ to stop with the useless aggravating W10 compatibility etc. updates.

 

Here's Borky! Bork, Bork, Bork 'til Mickey took the T'bork away ... sorry ... ahem *cough* lucky 13 for me. No doubt I'll wait and have to sort out the wheat from the bork again. Good luck everyone.

 

Now, I don't want to start any conspiracy theories, but I find that when I check on these updates by clicking the MS info site I keep getting this:



Maybe everyone else is checking these updates as well and the server can't cope. Funny that!

 

No need of conspiracy theories, all info links open fine here in IE11 as well as Opera 30.

 

Dragon1952 .....

Same here !

Also , thanks for posting the earlier ghacks link ... it saves some valuable time and effort for users who are very picky
about which MS Updates they install these days.

 

Well, I was joking, but this has happened on previous Bork Tuesdays or roundabouts, plus I got the same with Chrome, SeaMonkey and Firefox, it's just that Maxthon is my default browser. If I try more than once I can often get through to the page eventually. It does make me wonder if people are checking more on these updates though. I don't blame them!

 

Picky is sensible

+1 about Dragon1952's link as well, it's very useful.

 

Adobe Flash Player for Windows 8.1 18.0.0.203 was definitely buggy, it didn't play U Tube Videos in whole screen with out crashing. First I had to go to wide screen then whole screen, sometimes it still crashed...which was most of the time.

 

I agree the ghacks monthly link is great and helps out. The 3 i am going to install will happen in a few days. I wait about a week now to see if any updates are reported to cause problems.

 

Yeah, I think waiting about a week is standard procedure nowadays.

 

Jees, I see that KB2952664 is back again, I've hidden this numerous times, and I've hidden it again. What part of NO don't they understand ! I dont want Win X !

 

I agree, this is getting silly. I've hidden two updates that I don't want, three times already.

 

It IS ridiculous... They never should have infested anyone's good 7 or 8 pc with this 10 advertising stuff... It's really unacceptable.

 

Almost zilch accountability for corps these days. But here & what the public wants are very different. Most have drank the kool-aid.

 

This is getting ridiculous. Honestly, if you didn't laugh you'd cry.

 

And probably overdosed on it lol!

 

No problems so far this month. We did end up with that stupid Win 10 nag last month. That was an hour of my life wasted figuring out how to get rid of it.
