It's always the 2nd Tuesday. That's much simpler.


Second Tuesday. What they never say is what TIME these updates are
available. Do you have to wait until Wednesday to be sure they're
available, or did M$ put them there on Monday so you can get them Tuesday?

It matters, when it's important to install updates as soon as you can.


I don't think I remember a time when the general advice was to install
updates as soon as possible. It was always wait a week or so to let others
find any issues, until recent months when it became more of a case of not
installing updates at all if you wanted to keep your pre-10 system safe.
Safe from the upgrade to 10, I mean.
