   neowin[.]net/news/microsoft-releases-windows-10-builds-18363628-and-18362628---heres-whats-new

   Since both 2019's Spring and Fall versions use the same basic code, they get the same update, KB4532695. I'm also getting a .NET update that may appear 1st, or at the same time as KB4532695.

   I got one lot of updates but(KB4532695) didn't come up. After restarting my computer for the first lot of updates, I thought I would check again. KB4532695 came up as an Optional. I ran it any way.

   Microsoft calls them "Optional", but I'm never sure if they really are or not. Sometimes there's an important fix or a security patch, but I *think* Microsoft still lists the update as optional because they catch some heat, both from updating win10 too often & because Win10 needs ANOTHER patch when they have more than one update a month. And Microsoft always tends to be vague about what exactly their updates add &/or fix.

   That said, since you installed the update that means you won't have to install the same fixes on February's patch Tuesday -- those who didn't install KB4532695 will just have it added to that cumulative update -- so the time you spent updating isn't wasted.

   KB4532695 was an optional update as a few people have reported BSOD. It was affecting sound cards as well. They advise if that happened to uninstalled the botched update. I can say it hasn't affected any of the 3 computers in this house.
