Microsoft recommends to uninstall Windows 7 update 2823324
Microsoft released a total of nine security bulletins last Tuesday fixing two critical security vulnerabilities and several lesser rated security vulnerabilities in the Windows operating system and several other Microsoft products.
It turns out that one of the updates related that day, update 2823323, is causing issues for some users of the Windows 7 operating system. The update, part of the bulletin MS13-036 is a security update for the Windows file system kernel-mode driver ntsf.sys. The vulnerability received a maximum severity rating of important, the second highest rating available to classify the severity of vulnerabilities.
The Microsoft Knowledgebase article acknowledges the issue and confirms that Microsoft is currently investigating reports of systems failing to boot into Windows 7 or applications after the security update has been installed on the computer system. Microsoft has removed the download link for the patch as a precaution and recommends that customers that have installed the update on their systems uninstall it.

(2,805 posts)I only install updates about once a month but happened to install this one on Tuesday. No problems for me but I will uninstall now rather than wait for a fix.

(2,560 posts)I'll configure it over the weekend. I'm expecting W7 will try to update itself. Hopefully, this update will no longer be "available'.
But it's great that you mentioned it.
Thank you.
