Microsoft Fixes and Patches Post Patch Tuesday

Just last week, Microsoft delivered 8 new security updates for some of its products as part of its regular, monthly patching cycle. And, despite a long trail of monthly woes brought on by problematic updates that left many patching administrators and systems in its wake, Microsoft may have pulled off its first near-perfect month in a long while.

But, that doesn't mean we're out of the woods yet.

Microsoft has now also distributed a stack of new updates that seek to fix reported errors with pieces of its operating systems. Here's what's also now available …
