Microsoft Security Bulletin for July 2016

FTR, updates installed on 2 PCs and 1 notebook with no problems. It did require a reboot which I initiated manually rather than wait for 3 am scheduled reboot.

Which OS', Bill?

Whatever OS, update! See Every version of Windows hit by "critical" security flaw.

Nice find, Corrine. I've since offered my main PC as a sacrifice to WU but I did pause when I saw the description of that KB#, I don't own a printer so that Service is always disabled (historically it was often a nuisance anyway, that log jamming Print Spooler Service) on my own machines.

I'll wait a few days before allowing the other PCs around here to update, with the exception of the one that does sometimes use a printer. I'll also need to check that none have picked up the CPU/memory hogging bug again.

Which OS', Bill?

W10 Pro on the 2 PCs and W10 Home on the notebook (all 64-bit).
