Unified Windows update history for Windows 8.1 and Windows 7

Corrine · Mar 15, 2017

Unified Windows update history for Windows 8.1 and Windows 7:

Today, we are announcing a similar approach for earlier versions of Windows. Beginning in April, we will publish three single-page experiences that provide the same level of contextual information about updates for:

Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2

Windows Server 2012

Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Just like their Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016 counterpart, these three, new unified update history pages for previous versions will contain:

Release notes listing the improvements and fixes in the update

Content previously found separately in Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) articles (how to get the update, known issues, the complete list of affected files)

Although you will still be able to find the information above in the links below, everything going forward about updates for these operating systems will be in a consolidated view. Previously published content will not be affected by the consolidation.

Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2
Windows Server 2012
