When you have a Windows computer and have to deal with Microsoft patches, hard drives that die, and hard drives that should be updated to solid-state drives (SSDs), there are a few key tasks you need to know how to do.
This month’s updates turned out be disruptive for business patchers. For domain controllers and Server 2012 R2 virtual servers, in particular, users had to uninstall the January updates to keep their hardware from rebooting. I often see users deal with patching side effects by rolling back hardware to a saved recovery point. Instead, I recommend uninstalling the problematic update until it’s fixed.
