Windows 1903/1909 \| KB4497165 Update (Intel microcode updates) support.microsoft.com << I thought I was running version 1909 on my new laptop but after reading this post I checked again and this what it says, do I need to download KB4497165 or is my system okay? >> Tim gave a very good and proper response to your question. As 'Windows Latest' noted (and what was confusing to many of us) KB4497165 "was originally released in January and it appears to be rolling out again, and there’s no detailed information on why the update has been re-released. It’s possible that Microsoft hasn’t yet rewritten its documentation to cover up the new fixes or improvements included in this KB." Evidently that's the case ... i.e. updated by Intel but while updated not documented and I'd installed it way back when and don't think I'd uninstalled it. I previously had all May updates for v1909 paused through June 7 but all prior updates to 1909 were installed. I then updated them but neglected to pause them again for June patch updates so I downloaded KB4497165 last night and installed this morning. The morning install took less than 5 minutes on a HDD. All went smoothly. I have now paused all remaining June v1909 updates through July 5. Assuming 'AskWoody' gives an all clear I'll update all then pause August's. I have no intention of installing 2004 till at least August and possibly September. Let us know how you made out with the update. Cheers, - Eric L. -
