On June 14, 2016, Microsoft has released four critical and additional important security updates for Windows, Edge, Internet Explorer and Office. And there is an optional update to improve compatibility.
First of all, I shall note, that many users reported an extra ordinary long update search under Windows 7. On my own systems, I found a distinct behavior. While some systems has shown updates immediately, others took half an hour to list pending updates.
Optional update for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1
The updates below performs diagnostics on the Windows systems that participate in the Windows Customer Experience Improvement Program.
- KB2952664: Compatibility update for upgrading Windows 7
- KB2976978: Compatibility update for Windows 8.1 and Windows 8
These diagnostics help determine whether compatibility issues may be encountered when the latest Windows operating system is installed. This update will help Microsoft and its partners ensure compatibility for customers who want to install the latest Windows operating system.
