Windows 10: It's Patch Tuesday 3/10/20 and here's the info for The Cumulative Update KB4540673

I Hope This Information Helps


Cheers!...

:)

 

When is November's Patch Tuesday please? Win10 (I'm confused by an overnight Flash Update KB4051613)

Yes, it is true that Flash update was not released on last month Patch Tuesday, it was shipped later(which is possible because MS promises cumulative updates only on Patch Tuesday)

This month's patch Tuesday would be on as usual 2nd Tuesday of the month which is 14th Nov 2017.

I am expecting a long list of fixes with it.

Windows Update - patch tuesday becomes generally patch gradually?

Once, the 2nd tuesday of the month was windows 'patch tuesday'.

But since windows 10 was released, MS made it clear that updates for that OS would be released gradually, from the 2nd tuesday onwards. The deployment of win10 used the update servers, and the moans and screams about the impact on every other update were
deafening: for that year, a typical 30 minute update for win 7 took about 3 hours, sometimes more. So after the free period elapsed, gradual patching of win 10 seemed a reasonable approach to de-congesting the update servers, since every update I have seen
seems to be a complete new release, not just 'patches'.

It seems that this gradualism approach is being applied to updates for windows 7 now. For the last few months, updates for 64bit windows 7 were available on patch tuesday, but the same updates for 32bit windows 7 were not released for at least 4 days after
that (I made a specific check on that date, no updates available, but several days later, there's 300Mb of them waiting). Thus, patch tuesday is becoming de-facto patch gradually

So the question is: is this gradual update of all OS now a distinct policy by MS? Happening several times in a row does suggest that. As one popular TV drama has it, "there's no such thing as coincidence". And knowing this one can adjust the admin cycle
on affected Pc's.
