Security Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB3042553)

Hello,
Security Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB3042553) has been advised to be critical update to deal with Vulnerability in HTTP.sys which could allow remote code execution.
However due to some reason I am unable to apply the patch to any of the Windows 2012 R2 servers. It errors - The update is not applicable to your computer, when tried to install manually / locally.
I tried to push it via WSUS and the patch is not getting detected by the servers.
Regional language settings are set to match Windows display language (Which is English).
Is anyone else experiencing this issue too? If so is there way to get this deployed please.
Thank you.
Kumar G

Hi Kumar,
I suggest you check the file version of Http.sys and compare it with the one documented in the KB article below:
MS15-034: Vulnerability in HTTP.sys could allow remote code execution: April 14, 2015

Hi Susan. I hope there's a better 'fix' coming to replace this "uninstall the updates, restore, then reinstall the updates after the restore". This kind of workaround requires that all of us remember that there's a problem
with KB3023562 and KB3004375 from now until the end of WS2012E. Not sure I'll remember this 6 months from now when the problem crops up during a restore. -:(

Print Management Console displays no printers after applying Windows Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2995388)

After installing optional Windows Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2995388) on a print server upgraded from Windows 2012 to Windows 2012 R2, the Print Management Console wouldn't display locally shared or remotely shared printers. Another print server
could see the printers on this server, but it couldn't see it's own. Removal of the patch resolved the issue.

Hi,
à
Removal of the patch resolved the issue.
Thanks for sharing in the forum. Your time and efforts are highly appreciated.
On current situation, would you please let me confirm something more?
Please check if this update rollup package (KB2995388) install successfully.
Please run sfc /scannow command to scan all protected system files after installed this update.
If be possible, please re-install Print Server feature on the server after installed this update. Any find?
If any update, please feel free to let me know.
Hope this helps.

How to uninstall/remove security update for SQL Server 2012

My requirement is to uninstall/remove security update for SQL
Server 2012 Service Pack 1 only. so are these below steps are correct or do I need to take any extra precaution for uninstallation?
Go to Control panelàProgramsà
Programs and FeaturesàInstalled Updrtes, right click on update and uninstall
As per my knowledge in SQL Server 2005, we cannot uninstall a service pack. we have to uninstall SQL Server 2005 completely, and reinstall SQL Server 2005 with previous service
packs and updates. but Starting SQL Server 2008, we can uninstall a service pack using Control Panel.

Download Updates for Windows Server 2012 R2 Security Baseline..every time I open SCM

Each and every time I open SCM, I am prompted to download the Windows Server 2012 R2 Security Baseline 1.0 Fr, August 15 2004... Doesn't matter if I've installed it before or not.
Anyone else seeing this problem? Does anyone know why this is happening or how I can get it to stop? I tried uninstalling SCM and reinstalling, but the problem continues.
SCM is installed on a Windows 7 virtual machine, if that is relevant.
Thank you,
Rob

Same issue here. Shame MS doesn't put more resources on this tool.

This problem reproduced on all my web-servers (Windows Server 2012 Std). How can I fix these problems

Hi,
Windows update error 0x80070020 can occur if a program is interfering with the automatic update process.
Restart your computer or restart your computer in safe mode with network, then try to install the updates. Detailed information you may reference the link below(this applies also to Windows Server 2012 ):
You receive error 0x80070020 when you use the Windows Update Web site or the Microsoft Update Web site to install updates
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/883825/en-us
If the problem still exits, open Run, type %windir% and hit
Enter, find a text file named WindowsUpdate, uploaded the log file.

How do I get a reliable schedule for automatic update in Windows Server 2012 R2?

I don't understand why MS broke the automatic update in Windows Server 2012 R2. In previous versions, I used to set it for automatic updates - Saturdays at 2AM. I can no longer pick a weekly update in the GUI and the time seems to have no impact on its capricious
reboots due to updates. It might happen 2 days later at noon. The best option for now is to just shut off the automatic updates but I'm reading this issue has been around since 2012 R1. There supposedly is a fix/patch for
2012 but it doesn't say if the patch is for 2012 R2 and the automatic updates haven't installed a fix that actually fixes what is broken with the automatic updates.
Why even leave the GUI for automatic updates if it doesn't mean anything?
Is there a simple registry key I can change so updates occur according to the schedule that you created in the GUI? Please no powershell - worst crutch MS ever created to not fix their own gui.
I'm seeing people have tried some advanced work around using GPO but many said those don't work reliably either on hosts or domain controllers.

This may explain:

Hello all,
After installing the October 2014 update rollup for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2995388) on our Windows 2012 R2 Core Edition backup jobs of System State start to Fail, below the generic error:
The replica of Non VSS Datasource Writer on hostname.domain is inconsistent with the protected data source. All protection activities for this data source will fail until the replica is synchronized with consistency check.
The job was cancelled. The user either cancelled the job or modified the associated protection group.
Removing the update rollup all jobs complete without errors. Somebody is expiriencing the same issue? How can we resolve the problem?
Thnks, Andrea

Got Display driver via Windows Update for Windows 8.1 and try to use it for Windows Server 2012 R2

Hi Everyone,
the following driver cab is from Windows Update:
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=5be01620eea95d8c&id=5BE01620EEA95D8C!138&ithint=file,.cab&authkey=!APDi54-R1Ob5IWQ
It includes this display driver:
Intel(R) Q45/Q43 Express Chipset (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1)
My problem is: I can't install this driver on Windows Server 2012 R2.
I tried the following, nothing worked:
a) pnputil -i -a intel.cab
b) Extract cab, update the device's driver in device manager, select "search for driver software in this location"
c) copy the files in system32/, system32/drivers, syswow64/ from a Windows 8.1 system to a Windows Server 2012 R2 system
Isn't it true that any Windows 8.1 driver should also work for Windows Server 2012 R2 (same os version)?
Thanks for your replies.

What is posted availability specification for Windows server 2012? 2012R2?

I am trying to put together a high availability solution and I want to know what the availability 'claim' of the individual components would be. What is the availability specification for Windows server 2012 and Windows Server 2012R2?(for example 99.9%
availability for the O/S itself). This would be in a non clustered or Load Balanced state. Just a single server running the O/S.

Hi,
SLA requirements determine how components such as storage, clustering, and backup and recovery factor into your organization.The term high availability is meaningless until you define how to measure it. IT shops measure high availability as the percentage of
time that systems are available, but the provider and consumer of high-availability services must agree on what constitutes availability and how the time is measured.

Adobe Reader Enterprise for Windows Server 2012 (R2)

Hi,
I want to silently install the latest version of Adobe Reader on a Windows Server 2012 server. When I want to download the offline installer at http://get.adobe.com/nl/reader/enterprise/ I do not see Windows Server 2012 (and/or R2) listed. Is the offline installer supported for Windows Server 2012 and/or Windows Server 2012 R2?
How can I get this to work?
Thanks in advance.

The Technical Specifications are here: http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/tech-specs.html
It doesn't mention Windows Server 2012.
If this is for Citrix or WTS you should get a distribution agreement and then also get the Distribution version of Adobe Reader.
