Happy Veteran’s Day, Folks!

Today is Patch Tuesday for November, 2025.

If your Windows 10 computer can not be upgraded to Windows 11 then you should either replace your device or use the Windows 10 ESU program to get another year out of it.

Windows 11 25H2 is now available and Windows 11 23H2 and older are no longer supported. Treat Windows 11 25H2 as beta software and wait a few months before upgrading.

macOS 26 Tahoe is now available and macOS 13 Ventura and older are no longer supported. Treat macOS 26 as beta software and wait a few months before upgrading.

There were 750+ major hacks, and over 650 application updates this month. It’s a relatively small month, with about 4.0 GB of updates for most users.

Today is Patch Tuesday for September, 2025.

Time is now running short to upgrade to Windows 11 24H2 or macOS 15/Sequoia. The next release of each OS will be available within the next month and should be treated as beta software – Win11 and macOS 15/Sequoia are as close to stable as they will ever be. Upgrade now.

Welcome back, Folks!

Today is Patch Tuesday for November, 2021.

This month we’ve got the new macOS (Monterey) which is bricking Macs, Windows 11 (don’t do it!), and a new build of Windows 10 (v21H2) is slated for release within the next few days. If you’re running a version of Windows 10 prior to v20H2 (v2009/19042) then you’ll want to install either Windows 10 v21H1 or prepare to install v21H2 on release, as the older versions will no longer be supported in only a month.

Welcome back, Folks!

Today is Patch Tuesday for April, 2021. There have been over 50 major hacking incidents, many hardware devices with critical security issues (often these are responsible for the major hacking incidents), and over a hundred updates this month. Almost every browser has released weekly security updates for the last two months. I don’t know about you, but I’m getting kind of sick of it.
