What’s new?
Known issues
It’s important to note that this is an optional update, meaning it is not mandatory at all and you can let it be if you don’t need it. But if you do need it, you’ll get notified with a pop-up dialogue box in the system tray. If you agree to install it, the system will download and install the update automatically.
However, these fixes will still be part of the February Patch Tuesday release.
Will you be updating the optional fixes or will you be waiting to see how they perform? Let us know in the comment section below.
