Microsoft micro-code patch updates

Microsoft has release fresh micro-code update KB4497195 for a fresh list of CPU's. Worth a look to see if you need to get the update or if you already have it installed. Purportedly AMD users are getting the same patch. I haven't checked my AMD machines prior to this posted but will do so ASAP to validate.

Edited: Its there, restart is required

Just another MS screwup. Thank God it doesn't hurt anything.

I wondered the same. Previously MS had released the micro-code through LU therefore I'm banking on either they made a boo-boo and pushed to every install/seaker, or went with the last update scenario.
