This week, Microsoft launched for desktop operating system Windows 7 updates with security enhancements. However, after a few minutes from the deployment of the upgrade, many users found that the update install blocking software signed by both Microsoft and third parties. This, among other things, prevents the installation of updates for Windows 7.
While not his intention, the Redmond company -Microsoft- Tuesday launched an update for Windows 7 that, curiously, prevented the installation new updates. And is not concerned only for new updates, obviously, it directly prevented the installation of any software signed, so it was not possible to install programs and applications of self Redmond company, Microsoft, or any other developer. The update in question is called KB3004394 and, as announced by Microsoft, and has been withdrawn from automated updates and portal manual installation.
Windows 7 is the second most widespread global operating system.
The intention with which Microsoft released this update for Windows 7 operating system was very different, as expected, and security solution that provided the same had to do with the refresh of certificates. The SSL and TLS connections pose, with enhanced security, even more reliable thanks to the refresh rate of the “root” certificates is done daily, instead of once a week via aspect. However, the fault committed by Microsoft in the update has meant that, for the moment, consumers are not receiving this news.
The update is still available for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.
The 0x8004FF91 mistake, meanwhile, is now presenting as a serious problem for users of Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 with Nvidia and AMD hardware, and certain software installations are not able to perform since, until Microsoft propose a solution, remain affected by the problems of the released update. And, although Microsoft has already removed the update, some users had already installed. Moreover, this update is still available for Windows 8, 8.1, Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2.
