Updates 2022-10-18

Welcome back, Folks!

Today is October 18th, 2022. It’s not Patch Tuesday, but updates from Microsoft, Mozilla, Oracle, Google, and others have triggered an out-of-cycle update.

Microsoft released Windows 10 22H2/19045. This is a minor update but introduces new features. Don’t be a lemming, let other people experience the inevitable stability issues so you don’t have to. If you don’t mind risking it, you can now get it through Windows Update.

Microsoft released an out-of-band update for .NET that resolves a security issue. Use Windows Update to install this update.

Google Chrome OS 106.0.5249.112 is a security update. Use Menu, Help, About to install the most current version. A reboot is required.

Important Notes

Everything above this section should be checked by everyone on every computer. Chances are good that close to every single computer you touch will be affected by those updates. This is not the case with the items below, though you should still check each line item below to see if it applies to software you have installed.

The release of macOS Monterey (12.x) means that macOS Mojave (10.14) and older are no longer supported. If you can not install at least macOS Catalina (10.15) on your Mac then you should immediately remove it from the Internet and use it offline only. It will no longer receive patches or updates and can now no longer be secured.

The now-current release of the Windows 10 (v22H2) is very large so will take a long time to download on slower connections. Windows 10 pushes you to get the latest Windows 10 release every 12 months and only supports any consumer builds for 18 months. If you don’t let it finish and you’re on a slow connection, this process will kill your Internet performance forever. If you don’t have the bandwidth to download the bits, I’m happy to provide loaner USB drives to our local clients, or, if you prefer to have me mail it to you please contact me for information.

The now-current release of the Windows 11 (v22H2) is very large so will take a long time to download on slower connections. Windows 11 pushes you to get the latest Windows 11 release every 12 months and only supports any consumer builds for 24 months. If you don’t let it finish and you’re on a slow connection, this process will kill your Internet performance forever. If you don’t have the bandwidth to download the bits, I’m happy to provide loaner USB drives to our local clients, or, if you prefer to have me mail it to you please contact me for information.

Windows 11 is still very young so I encourage you to wait a few more months before you consider switching to it.

Please remember that while I list many different applications within these updates, most people should ONLY install updates for a program if they already have a previous version of that program installed.

It is essential to maintain all the applications you have installed on your computer, but often you can minimize the time investment and the potential for exploitation simply by uninstalling software you do not need or use, reducing the attack surface. This includes “free” applications like Avast, OpenOffice, and games you do not actually play.

Also note that using the applications own “check for updates” function, when available, will best preserve your current settings, and often avoid any crapware that might come with a fresh installer. Use this option if it’s available to you.

Finally, if you’re sick of doing this all yourself, let me! Call or email me any time, and we can set you up with subscription SaferPC updates which will be installed each month whenever necessary. Click, call or email for more details:

Happy New Year, Folks!

It’s Patch Tuesday.

The typical computer should see roughly 1.5gb in updates today. We’re starting out the new year with a much smaller number of updates, but they’re still quite large. Let’s get started.

Microsoft released updates to Windows, Internet Explorer, Edge, Exchange, MS Office and MSRT (~1.1gb). This includes security updates. A reboot is required.

Apple released updates for AirPort Base Station. This includes security updates. Follow these directions to install this update:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201519

Google Chrome OS 55.0.2883.105 is a security update. Use Menu, Help, About to install the most current version. A reboot is required.

Adobe Flash Player 24.0.0.194 is a security update. Flash is being actively replaced with HTML5 on most sites and services, however, so unless you’re 110% positive you need it for critical functions, you should remove it instead. And, within those browsers that have it embedded (Chrome, Edge, Internet Explorer 11+) disable it. It’s just not worth the risk.
Win: https://12pd.com/click?flash
Win: https://12pd.com/click?flashie
Mac: https://12pd.com/click?flashmac

Don’t forget to check your mobile devices, too! Many updates will also apply to your tablet, phone, kindle or television – so check your device-appropriate App Store and install updates.

Dropbox 10.4.25 still doesn’t provide a change log, so should be treated as a security update, or preferably, abandoned. Software that doesn’t provide change-logs uses the fancy magical ability called “ignorance” to convince you to upgrade, possibly to a hacked or hijacked version, with no hope of validation from the author. A company like Dropbox, valued at $8 BILLION, should be able to spare someone on their build team to compose something more detailed than “The desktop client is regularly updated with many improvements and fixes.”

Hi, Folks!

It’s Patch Tuesday.

Windows 10 Anniversary Edition was released this week. Don’t install it. There are many reports of stability problems after an upgrade. Be patient, they’ll fix it.

The typical computer should see roughly 750mb in updates today. Let’s get started.

Microsoft released updates to Windows, Internet Explorer, Edge, and MSRT (~500mb). This includes security updates. A reboot is required.

iOS 9.3.4 is a security update. Use Settings, General, Software Update to get the most current version.

Don’t forget to check your mobile devices, too! Many updates will also apply to your tablet, phone, kindle or television – so check your device-appropriate App Store and install updates.

Important Notes

Everything above this section should be checked by everyone on every computer. Chances are good that close to every single computer you touch will be affected by those updates. This is not the case with the items below, though you should still check each line item below to see if it applies to software you have installed.

Please remember that while I list many different applications within these updates, most people should ONLY install updates for a program if they already have a previous version of that program installed.

It is essential to maintain all the applications you have installed on your computer, but often you can minimize the time investment and the potential for exploitation simply by uninstalling software you do not need.

Also note that using the applications own “check for updates” function, when available, will best preserve your current settings, and often avoid any crapware that might come with a fresh installer. Use this option if it’s available to you.

Finally, if you’re sick of doing this all yourself, let me! Call or email me any time, and we can set you up with subscription SaferPC updates which will be installed each month whenever necessary. Click, call or email for more details:

Driver Updates

If you’re using this hardware – these updates are for you.

AMD Crimson Edition 16.8.1 adds hardware support and fixes bugs. This is not a security update.
http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Radeon-Software-Crimson-Edition-16-8-1-Release-Notes.aspx

AMD Radeon Software Crimson Edition 16.5.3 fixes several bugs, and improves performance. This is not a security update.

nVidia 368.95 is not a security update.

nVidia OpenGL drivers for Windows 369.00, and Linux 367.36.02 fixes several bugs and adds support for the beta OpenGL 2016 ARB specification. This is not a security update.
https://developer.nvidia.com/opengl-driver

AcuRite PC Connect for XP and Vista has been discontinued. This software will receive no more updates and has been removed from the AcuRite website. If you’re still using this software (which implies you’re using either XP or Vista) your safest move is to switch to another operating system where you can use a supported application.

Display Driver Uninstaller 16.1.0.1 improves identification and cleanup. This is not a security update.
http://www.wagnardmobile.com/DDU/

Browser Updates

One or more of these are likely to be of interest to everyone.

Google Chrome 52.0.2743.116 is the most recent in a series of 4 Chrome security updates released in the last couple weeks. Use Menu, Help, About to get the most current version.

Firefox 48.0 is a security update. Use Menu, Help, About to get the most current version. As of Firefox 49 – in about 5 weeks – Firefox will no longer support older versions of OS X (prior to Mavericks / 10.9). On older Windows machines, SSE2 CPU extensions are now required for Firefox 48+ which will leave some Windows XP and Vista machines unsupported. If you’re using an older/unsupported operating system, consider this your one-month warning. In about a month there will no longer be a secure browser available for you, so your machine can only safely be used offline.

Email Updates

One or more of these are likely to be of interest to everyone.

Hi, Folks!

It’s not Patch Tuesday, but Apple, Oracle, Adobe, and more have released updates today. The typical computer should see approximately 25mb of updates. Let’s get started.

Apple released iOS 9.3.3 for iPhone 4s and later, iPod touch (5th generation) and later, iPad 2 and later. This is a security update. The easiest update is through OTA, or Over-The-Air update by connecting to Wi-Fi then going to Settings, General, Software Update, then tap “Download and Install” or “Install now”. The update will restart your device.

Apple released OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 and Security Update 2016-004 for OS X Mavericks 10.9.5, OS X Yosemite v10.10.5, and OS X El Capitan 10.11 and later, iTunes 12.4.2, iCloud for Windows 5.2.1, Safari 9.1.2, tvOS 9.2.1 for Apple TV (4th generation), and watchOS 2.2.2 for Apple Watch. These are security updates. Use the Apple App Store to install the most current versions. If you have multiple devices you can save bandwidth by downloading the update from here:
https://support.apple.com/downloads/

Adobe Flash Player Active-X 22.0.0.210 is a security update. This version only applies to Windows 7 and Windows Vista.

Java 8u101 is a security update. You’re better off removing Java than updating it unless you are absolutely sure you really use it.

When in doubt, remove it and re-install only if you find it is required. This is a security update.
