Win7 Update? NOW OK!

We're pleased to advise that Microsoft has withdrawn the faulty updates and resolved and fixed most of them.  At 2SS.Com we have now tested the results 'OK" on  a half-dozen or more 2SS.Com and client PCs.  Each PC was updated to reach the "Windows is up top date" screen as shown below:

Even though this advisory appears to be over, we want to  recommend again that you consider setting your PC to download but NOT apply updates until you or 2SS.Com on your behalf choose to apply them.  Those settings are easy to adjust and are available at:

  • [Start] -> [Settings] -> [Control Panel] -> [Windows Update] -> [Change Settings] (at top left) and select in the drop-down "Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them" then press -> [OK]

We'll follow-up soon with a 2SS.Com campaign for all our clients that goes with the above setting.  It will encourage you to wait to the 3rd week of the month to accept Microsoft updates.
