Microsoft in its official blog announced that it recognizes the fact of the popularity of this operating system, and therefore will now be publish special monthly service packs for it.
It should only be noted that the standard "patch" security-related, will not be included in these packages and all will be published separately every Tuesday, and therefore should not be completely relaxed.
Also today we are announcing that non- security updates for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows 8.1 (as well as Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2) will be available as a monthly rollup (fixes rolled up together into a single update). Each month, we will release a single update containing all of the non-security fixes for that month. We are making this change - shifting to rollup updates, to improve the reliability and quality of our updates.
These fixes will be available through Windows Update, WSUS, and SCCM as well as the Microsoft Update catalog. We hope this monthly rollup update simplifies your process of keeping Windows 7, and 8.1 up-to-date.
In addition, today we are announcing that the updates are not security-related for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows, 8.1 (as well as Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1, Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2) will be available in the form of monthly rollup. Each month we will release another update that contains all the fixes that are not related to the safety of this month. We realize a transition to the cumulative updates to improve the reliability and quality of our updates.
These corrections will be available through Windows Update, WSUS, and SCCM, and the Microsoft Update catalog. We hope that this monthly update rollup will simplify the process of maintaining Windows 7 and 8.1 to date. Related Products :
