Haven't put any more time into this, as it seems that my machine is one of the only ones hit. Weirdly enough the KB shows as already installed and needed at the same time..... this is worse than old school linux dependency hell....

Worth noting that Linux has fixed a lot of their issues and will at least tell you, dnf install <something> required before this can proceed.

Oh for sure, I've yet to play with dnf in depth, but yum was pretty stable the last time I had much of anything to do with a RH based distro. apt-get has been rock solid for years now, last time I can recall anything messing up with an apt based distro was on ubuntu 8.something if my memory is correct. zypper seems pretty solid too, but I've never been able to warm up to opensuse.

Since today is patch Tuesday, I'll wait and see what comes down.

I definitely haven't had a cap while downloading updates, I'm pegging my 100 mb down pipe.

Right, but then the sad thing is why was the download taking so long if I was only seeing the backup running.. F'n windows update process.....

yep.. the process lies about what's going on.. I think there must be some type of post download processing going on, but it's still listed at downloading, but the network speed shows no download happening.

Hmmm.... maybe Outlook 2003 is part of the issue 🙂

Tee hee.

lol I was thinking the same. Is Office 2003 EOL support this summer too?

For Outlook 2003:

11/20/2003 - Lifecycle Start Date 04/14/2009 - Mainstream Support End Date 04/08/2014 - Extended Support End Date

May Outlook 2003 rest in peace! 😉
