Microsoft refused to give Windows 8.1 customers another reprieve, requiring most to upgrade their devices to April's Windows 8.1 Update before the firm's Windows Update would serve up today's mammoth patch slate



From Computerworld:

Tuesday's collection of seven different "bulletins" -- Microsoft's label for its security updates -- included one for Internet Explorer (IE) that contained fixes for a record 59 separate vulnerabilities.

The previous single-bulletin mark was MS11-034, which patched 30 vulnerabilities in April 2011.
