Updates 2015-07-21

Hi, Folks!

It’s not Patch Tuesday, but Microsoft, Apple and Google released out-of-cycle updates today. The typical computer should require less than 50mb of updates. Let’s get started.

Microsoft released an out-of-cycle security update for Windows today, as well as a new baseline for Microsoft Security Essentials. This includes security updates. A reboot is required.
http://update.microsoft.com/

Apple released an update to Mac mini EFI. This is not a security update. Use Apple 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.

Next week Microsoft will release Windows 10, which they’ve called “the last Windows operating system”. Free updates will be available to download for any computer running legal consumer versions of Windows 7 or 8.1. This will be a very extensive update (over 3gb) and will take hours to process. Afterwards consumer versions will have Microsoft updates forced upon them, though they can select the timing of the updates. While other changes will be imposed as well, it’s really the best step forward for both security and stability. My recommendation is to wait until after Patch Tuesday of August before installing the update. While there are thousands of people testing Windows 10 already, it can not be tested with all hardware, so you would be safest to wait until other guinea pigs subject themselves to whatever problems may arise before allowing yourself to suffer potential data loss and frustration.

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:

Hi, Folks!

It’s Patch Tuesday! The typical computer should see roughly 160mb in updates today. Let’s get started.

Microsoft released 6 updates to address issues in Windows, Office and Internet Explorer (~80mb). This includes security updates. A reboot is required.
http://update.microsoft.com/

Microsoft also announced the release date for Windows 10, a free upgrade to Windows 7 and 8.x (as long as you install it within the first year). Windows 10 will be released on July 29th, and will be a direct upgrade path (you won’t lose files, data or most settings or applications). You may need to reinstall some software. You may have noticed the Windows 10 logo in your system tray. You can use this to enable a local cache of the Windows 10 installation on your computer, however it will download a MINIMUM of 3gb to do so. If important updates are released before the launch in July, this could be updated or re-cached several times. If you have a slow, unstable or bandwidth limited connection, I recommend you wait until after the second Tuesday in August to enable this update. That will ensure you download the absolute least data necessary.

Updates 2015-05-12

Posted on by

Hi, Folks!

It’s Patch Tuesday! It’s a pretty heavy load today, with several updates that require direct interaction. The typical computer should see roughly 400mb in updates. Let’s get started.

Microsoft released 24 updates to address issues in Windows, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Security Essentials, Silverlight, .NET, and Microsoft Office (~250mb). This includes security updates. A reboot is required.
http://update.microsoft.com/

Apple released updates for OS X, OS X Server, Safari, iCloud, RAW compatibility, and several drivers. This includes security updates. Use Apple Software Update to install these updates. A reboot is required.

Adobe Reader and Acrobat 11.0.11 are security updates. Since Adobe has released Adobe Acrobat DC the native update engine has become unreliable for 11.x versions. You may need to either switch to Adobe Acrobat DC or have significant patience to download the 11.0.11 update.

Adobe AIR 17.0.0.172 is a security update.
Win: https://12pd.com/click?air
Mac: https://12pd.com/click?airmac

Adobe Flash Player 17.0.0.188 is a security update.
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.

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:
