caveat! Windows patch KB3013769 can cause Kaspersky software to work abnormally

Now Microsoft's monthly patch day is not normal, and this time it is still an old patch. Microsoft has pushed a number of patches that have been released for several months to some machines, including KB3013769, which was first announced in December 2014. At that time, Microsoft and Kaspersky's security engineers confirmed that there is a problem with the patch. It is not recommended for Kaspersky users to install, and the installed ones should be uninstalled. Otherwise, it is easy to freeze the blue screen. The prompt message is “SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (kl1. Sys)”.

This time it was re-pushed out, it seems that it is still the patch, it has not been updated, at least not in the official instructions, and it does not say how to deal with the problem of the machine that has encountered the problem before. Therefore, Kaspersky users are likely to encounter blue screen again.

But fortunately, this patch only has problems on the machine where Kaspersky security software is installed, and it is a cumulative update patch for Windows 8.1 system, so the impact is not big. Windows 8.1 Kaspersky users should be careful.
