tonimontana Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Microsoft resumes XP, Vista updatesMay 6, 2008 12:03 PM PDTPosted by Ina Fried, CNETMicrosoft on Tuesday said it is resuming two major Windows updates that had been halted because of a conflict with one of its own software products. A week ago, Microsoft delayed the release of Windows XP Service Pack 3 because of a problem that could lead to data loss when running the XP update in conjunction with its Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System program. It also halted automatic updates to Windows Vista Service Pack 1 because of a similar issue. The software maker on Tuesday said it is releasing XP Service Pack 3 for Web downloads, and resuming automatic updates to Vista Service Pack 1, after developing a filter that will prevent machines running Dynamics RMS from getting either update. The filter is not a fix for the incompatibility, though Microsoft said it is working on that as well. "A fix for this issue is currently in testing at Microsoft and with customers, and we hope to make it publicly available this month," the company said in a statement. "Until then, Microsoft is advising Microsoft Dynamics RMS customers to not install either service pack." Those already running Dynamics RMS with one of the Windows updates should contact customer support, it said.Originally posted at Beyond Binary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
