Windows 10: A Windows patch for a particular OS built does not apply to same version of the Windows of...

Hello fellow Windows 10 users,


If a Windows patch is for a particular OS built, it it applicable to the same version of OS, but of a different built?

The following applies to Windows 10 version 1607 and Windows server 2016 (OS Build 14393.2430)

We are using Windows version 1607 Enterprise, but the built number is different.

Is it correct that this patch does not apply to our Windows?


Thank you

Jan 10th Patch Tuesday: 7 Patches On The Way

Microsoft has just released their Security Bulletin Advance Notification for January 2012. This is pre-release information about the Windows patches due to be rolled out on Microsoft Update on Tuesday 10th January. In it, there is one critical and six important updates. There are three remote code execution patches (one critical); two information disclosures and one privilege escalation. There is also one "security feature bypass", which is interesting, because it's not a description seen before. It's not hard to get an idea of what this fixes, but we await the release of the official bulletins for the full description of what security feature is fixed.

All versions of Windows have patches coming up, but some of those patches don't apply to particular versions of Windows and the notification lists which Windows version gets which bulletin/patch. At the same time, Microsoft is releasing an updated version of it's Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool. Full details here

 

Let's have a poll on "Your primary Windows OS"

Let's have a poll on Your primary Windows OS:

• Windows 10
• Windows 7
• Windows 8
• Windows Vista and earlier

Why "primary Windows OS"? Some of us may have alternative OS'es installed (CentOS for me), some of us may have two or more Windows versions installed concurrently.

Thank you!
