Issue 1

Intel Bluetooth driver software...

may affect Bluetooth keyboards, mice,
audio streaming devices, and voice headsets

*******

'583 is not included in rollups, because it's
a gated update/install. '664 can decide the
computer is ready for '583. But generally you
would not expect '583 to be inside a package
like this. If you have any concerns, you
should already have installed GWX Control Panel
and taken defensive measures.

*******

So the above update is not entirely safe,
if you were on some mobile device, your
Intel Bluetooth host went for a ****, and
your Bluetooth keyboard stopped working.
That would be a bit of a mess. If you don't
have Intel Bluetooth, but have some other
brand (like Broadcom), then you're probably
safe.

HTH,
Paul

It's a fix for a problem caused by KB3133977 update.
If you haven't had KB3133977 instaled, KB3172605 is optional.
