   @DarkMahesvara That's what you get for being used by proprietary software pretty much.
   
   They refuse to tell you what updates actually change since "security" (when really, most of the "updates" just add more malware features, while there's sometimes a few security fixes dribbled in).

Administrators need to find out by themselves therefore, which is a problem, as Microsoft does not give any hints what to look for. Administrators may spend hours evaluating systems to find potential breakage."
