Windows 7 offers the patch KB3172605
On July 12th, the patch day in July brought Windows updates, which included security holes and improvements for the Microsoft programs. Another patch is now with an almost ten-day delay.
If you can not properly connect Bluetooth devices to your Intel chip-based PC or laptop, you get the patch KB3172605. The update comes for systems running Windows 7 (SP1) and Windows Server 2008 R2 (SP1).
The new Windows 7 patch fixes errors that were created in May by patch KB3133977. In addition to Bluetooth problems, it was also possible to activate Secure Boot in the UEFI (the BIOS successor Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) on Asus notebooks. Windows 7 then reported unauthorized changes to the system and refused to boot.
Users had to help themselves by switching to the "Other OS" setting for alternative operating systems instead of "Windows UEFI Mode" in the UEFI. Problems with Bluetooth could not be handled easily. As a workaround, Microsoft only calls to uninstall the update and wait for a patch - available since Thursday.
Windows 7 will only receive security patches and important bug fixes until 2019. Support for new features has already expired. If you want to continue working with your system or plan to sell it in the future, you should update to Windows 10.
Lesetipp: sell PC with Windows 10 - what look for
As a rule, a small plus can be achieved at the selling price as the new operating system looks more attractive to potential buyers. Users who stay with your computer will get better support for current hardware and software, as well as new features for the operating system.
