What does the MS16-023 update bring us? As it appears, Microsoft has discovered a new way to serve Windows 10 to those who resist. One of the latest security updates came with non-security content but promotes the company's new operating system.
Thus, along with the security update MS16-023, the "Get Windows 10" application will be reinstalled on systems running Windows 7 and 8,1.
Security update MS16-023, released on Patches March looks like any other Microsoft security update, but it also has the aforementioned surprise.
Αυτή η ενημέρωση ασφαλείας επιλύει διάφορα τρωτά σημεία του Internet Explorer. Η πιο σοβαρή από αυτές τις vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if one user displays a specially crafted web page in Internet Explorer.
Additionally, this security update includes several non-security fixes but related to Internet Explorer.
The main issue with the specific way of promoting Windows 10 that Microsoft has conceived is that in this way users can only remove the application from their system and leave the security updates.
Obviously, if you don't use Internet Explorer you can get rid of it problem, but as you understand it is a temporary solution as Microsoft seems to have started promoting Windows 10 with other programs or tools of the operating system.
We will not propose a solution, because at the moment it does not seem to exist.
Of course, an alternative and timeless proposition for all Windows users is: "try Linux."
