Microsoft Releases Critical Update KB3140742 for Windows 10 v1511

Microsoft’s engineers are busy behind the curtains working on fresh updates, and the most recent ones we saw were released almost a week ago. We saw the release of KB3135174 for ‘original’ Windows 10 systems and KB3135173 for Windows 10 devices running the November Update, also known as version 1511. Now, it seems that Microsoft is ready with yet another new cumulative update for Windows 10, however, it isn’t yet available via the traditional Windows Update. But the app is available through the official Microsoft Update Catalog (webpage only works when viewed in Internet Explorer) and is actually being describe as a critical update.

I still think the best method is waiting for WU to tell me its available, So I will wait. Reading some of that post also states this in its article.
"Of course, be aware that this is somewhat a risky operation. You probably know this already, but a cumulative update usually comes with bug fixes and improvements, and rarely brings new features"

excerpt 1. :
Of course, be aware that this is somewhat a risky operation

excerpt 2 :
We are installing the update as we speak and we’ll keep you updated as to what exactly it changes or if it doesn’t bring anything new at all (hopefully not too many glitches and bugs).

Think I'll let those people do the heavy lifting.

But thank you, Cluster Head, for the article.

Bug fixes can be more important than adding any new features. I would also venture a guess that if anyone hasn't had issues with any of the previous updates will not likely have any with this one.

That's fine with me Jeff, if you want to grab this manual update before its released thru WU . That is your choice of course.
My Windows is running just fine without it at present time. I can wait for it to be released the Correct Way myself. :)
