Windows 10: Should I install Microsoft updates sitting on my PCs ?

Hi, I have some Microsoft updates awaiting my action. I have NOT installed them yet. Then the Crowdstrike bug happened. Understood Crowdstrike has issued a fix to resolve issue and systems around the world are returning to operations. I am unsure if I should proceed with the Microsoft updates ? Will Microsoft be also pushing out the fix to Crowdstrike error to us, adding to the list of "earlier" updates ? I am an IT idiot and this is stressing me out because if I get the blue screen, I am unsure how to get help... Any help or advise will be appreciated. Thanks, JC Chong

Insurgency wont install and run for me....

I have played and have fully updated CS and Half life 2....
I am using the newest client and installed the SDK.

I am completely blown away, if i click the desktop icon it starts the sdk and then closes, and it doesn't show up in my game list...

First mod attempt install here, followed the directions step by step on the mods website...

Any ideas?

 

Installing update after downloading it through Microsoft Update Catalog

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue.

There is no need to install update separately it will be automatically installed when you download the update, I suggest you to go to Control panel and check whether the update is installed are not.

Follow the steps to check for Update.

• 
  Open Control Panel.
  
• 
  Select Programs and Features.
  
• 
  Click on View installed updates.
  
• 
  Check for the Update in the list.
  

Keep us posted on the issue so that we can assist you better.

Thanks and Regards.

 

PC Build Steps

Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval

• Install system in case
  • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
• Turn on PC
• setup HDD
• run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
  • run realtemp at the same time

• While in Prime95 test
  • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
  • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
  • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!

What do you guys think??
