First off I’ll be streamlining the Patch guidance, focusing less on the individual updates for Office 20 due to the fact that Office is pivoting to deploying EVERYTHING via click to run technology. I’ll be making some changes in the content along the way as well. But I’ll also promise to help guide you to where you can make Windows 10 to be still YOUR operating system, with the choices and rebooting when you want, and not when Microsoft wants you to make those choices. I promise to point out the things I really like about Windows 10 to assure you that I see my future on the Windows platform. I’ll give you ways to get the security goodness of Microsoft but in spoonfuls that are affordable and reasonable. I’ll be giving you my advice on finding a happy medium between what Microsoft THINKS we want and what we need (hint: we’re moving things to the cloud but the subscription model isn’t always the best solution). First off I’m going to focus not only on patching but guidance on security tweaks and adjustments you can do in both Windows 10 and Windows 7. But with the new location we’re going to change things up a bit. This site will now be the home of the “Patch Lady” and my guidance to installing patches. Long story short, I decided that it was time for a fresh start and a new location courtesy of Woody.
So what happened? Well a funny thing happened to a server. Susan, we need your Pinocchio with a loooooong nose. How do you justify this sneaky behavior? Where is the transparency now.
The package details for KB4507456 say it replaces KB2952664 (among other updates).Ĭome on Microsoft. With the July 2019-07 Security Only Quality Update KB4507456, Microsoft has slipped this functionality into a security-only patch without any warning, thus adding the “Compatibility Appraiser” and its scheduled tasks (telemetry) to the update. The move was announced by Microsoft ahead of time. Microsoft included the KB2952664 functionality (known as the “Compatibility Appraiser”) in the Security Quality Monthly Rollups for Windows 7 back in September 2018. It doesn’t apply for IA-64-based systems, but applies both 圆4 and x86-based systems. Some details can be found in file information for update 4507456 (keywords: “telemetry”, “diagtrack” and “appraiser”) and under (in “Package details”->”This update replaces the following updates” and there is KB2952664 listed). It replaces infamous KB2952664 and contains telemetry.
The “July 9, 2019- KB4507456 (Security-only update)” is NOT “security-only” update. Alerted on Patch Tuesday by an anonymous poster: Unannounced, Microsoft has added telemetry functionality to the July 2019 Security-only Update for Windows 7 KB4507456.
