Microsoft releases fix for patch that broke VPNs, Hyper-V virtual machines and more
Summary
The Windows Update on January 11 was intended to address 96 security flaws but also brought a load of pain for users and admins. On top of this, users discovered a windows Resilient File System (ReFS) issue blocked access to volumes stored on removable media, including external USB drives. VPN connections using Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) or IP security Internet Key Exchange (IPSEC IKE) might also be affected, according to Microsoft. Its likely cause was that the ReFS file system isnt supported on removable media, including external USB drives, according to Microsoft. As Ask Woodys influential IT admin blogger Susan Bradley recently argued in 2020, Microsofts decision to roll up patches in a big bundle on the second Tuesday of every month requires admins to place a great deal of trust in the company.
