Windows Update Recall

   Microsoft has basically issued a recall for one of its Windows 7 updates released on Tuesday, April 9th. This update was included with many others as part of the usual "Patch Tuesday" release but it has apparently been found to cause errors, including problems rebooting computers. Security update 2823324 is no longer an option to download from Microsoft and they are recommending the removal of this update.

   To remove an update is fairly easy, just by going to your control panel, choosing System and Security and then Windows Update. Once there choose Installed Updates to see the list.Find the one listed as Security Update for Microsoft Windows (KB2823324) which likely has a date of 4/10/2013. At that point, should you decide to follow Microsoft's recommendation, you can right click that item and Uninstall it. More information on this can be found directly from Microsoft HERE.
