nir Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Outlook 2010 crashes finally resolved with this update Microsoft has just released a new update that resolves crashes occurring in Microsoft Outlook 2010 after installing the most recent security patches. As I reported earlier this week, a number of Outlook 2010 users who installed update KB4461529 experienced an issue that caused the app to crash on launch on their devices. Microsoft acknowledged the problem and promised a fix as soon as possible, and today KB4461585 is officially out to restore the working behavior of the application. You can download the update from the Microsoft Download Center here. KB4461529 is a critical security patch for Microsoft users that resolves a vulnerability in the Office productivity suite which may allow remote code execution once users open specially crafted files on unpatched systems. The update was shipped to all Outlook 2010 given the critical severity rating, but the 64-bit version of the security update caused the said crashes on a number of PCs. The update quality saga At this point, it’s not known how many users were impacted by the issue, but Microsoft rolling out a fix so fast is definitely good news for all customers. As many Microsoft watchers know already, Microsoft has an update quality problem, and living proof in this regard is none other than the Windows 10 version 1809 blunder. Microsoft is often accused of not testing updates and security patches thoroughly before making them public, and these eventually cause various problems on Windows computers. Cumulative updates themselves have a long history of failed installs, though in the last couple of Patch Tuesday rollout, there were only a few reports pointing to such issues. However, the botched Outlook 2010 security update is living proof that Microsoft still has a lot of work to do when it comes to the quality of its patches, but given the rapid fix, we can only hope that the company is heading in the right direction.

Kalju Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Before this version the Windows versions had a special name, for example Creators Update, Fall Creators Update..... I recommend to rename this version to Adrenalin Update.... I think You understand why. Spoiler adrenalin noun [ U ] also adrenaline uk /əˈdren.əl.ɪn/ us /əˈdren.əl.ɪn/ a hormone produced by the body, for example when you are frightened, angry, or excited, that makes the heart beat faster and prepares the body to react to danger: These arguments always get my adrenalin going (= make me excited or angry).

wacm1979 Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 So many updates to fix updates. I guess that cycle will continue but they really need to clean up the bugs before releasing them. Especially with these kind of packages that will affect a lot of mainstream/business users that have invested in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
