Microsoft informs users of coming update to WU
PC World | at | by Mike
Microsoft has announced that it will upgrade Windows' update mechanism later this month, a warning that comes nearly a year after the company issued a similar upgrade without informing users.
"Beginning at the end of this month and continuing over the next few months, we'll be rolling out an infrastructure update to the Windows Update agent," said Michelle Haven, a product manager in the Windows Update group, in a post to the team's blog late last Thursday. Haven went on to say that the update would affect both Microsoft's back-end update infrastructure as well as the client-side software necessary to use WU directly or access it through a Windows Server Update Services server.
