After successful testing with the various test groups we have released MD2012 workstation Patch 06, which is the second patch for MD2012.
This update is just for MD2012 workstations and is a collection of updates that have been distributed by other means brought together into a single update.
The update is being distributed in a phased roll out so it will take a few days to be applied to all MD2011 workstations and will only install when the workstation is at the ctrl+alt+del screen.
Some of the updates, such as previously installed Hotfixes and the CLE require a reboot to complete the installation, but the patch has been setup so that if these updates have been previously installed (which they have been for virtually all MD7 Office workstations) then the machine won’t re-install them and won’t restart.
If a restart is required and if no user has logged in between the patching starting and completing then the workstation will automatically restart.
If after the patch has completed installing a user has logged in then the workstation can be used as normal and updates will be applied during the next restart.

• Updated MIME Types within HKey_Classes_Root
