    In the meantime, use Firefox browser where you can download the flash player update.

    THANK YOU MICROSOFT FOR NOT ROLLING OUT
    THE SECURITY PATCHES UNTIL ANY BUGS ARE FIXED!!!

    This is a GOOD move and will save people lots of headaches and frustration in the end.

    I skipped most of these posts, but a 1 GB security update... Seems more likely to be a cumulative update. They may even change the update KB by the time it is released. But Friday is not out of the question... it has happened before.

    Most business use a patching solution like WSUS or SCCM, so they can control the deployment of the patches.

    I rarely have ever had a problem with patches on patch Tuesday. Both my Windows PC's and my Mac have been just fine after running patches.

    Keep in mind, these bugs that MS finds, may be very small things. For example, if you have Anniversary Update 1, Office 365, and a logitech mouse, you might have encountered an install problem. Microsoft certainly isn't intentionally pushing out stuff that breaks 100% of their user base without a care in the world.

    What about update to Adobe Flash Player for Edge in the meantime?

    John, doubt there will be one...maybe, don't know. Searched high and low and there isn't a way I could find to independently update it. Best move, if there are concerns, is to disable Flash in Edge temporarily or switch browser temporarily. IE uses same, so that's out. Maybe somebody else has a trick.

    Delaying it until March makes the most sense and the less disruptive option for businesses. Rather than releasing them mid month.

    Agreed. Not knowing is usually the hardest thing, now we know. If there is a serious security issue, they can always do an out-of-band patch. It's been done before. Maybe one for Edge ActiveX. (Hint, hint...MS)
