And thank you for the detailed list of steps you attempted, Tom.
Frankly, issues such as these should *never* occur as folks will
continue losing Trust in Microsoft and then they'll Disable automtic
updating altogether.

impact of a major vulnerability combined with a lack of installing
Security updates on a significant proportion of systems will lead to.
