Althea Borquez: Windows 10 Hack Warning: How to Save your PC using the Microsoft SSU Update?

Windows 10 users are in another new trouble as a new hack has spread around the world and infecting all the computers and laptops. Microsoft themselves have come forward due to the severity of the problem and warned Windows 10 users to stay safe from the hack. The Washington based tech giant has advised the users to keep their devices safe from the vulnerabilities and install the Servicing Stack Update (SSU) first.

Is it just me waiting for the release of #Windows10 1909 and it doesn't happen? Why? What are you waiting for? We will stop to plan user resources to be able to implement the IPU because of this stupid release practice @Microsoft is doing. 😐

Windows 10 October updates are available from Microsoft but they have first advised the users to install the SSU first. Without the Servicing Stack, there are a lot of threats looming over which includes complete control and other critical zero-day exploits.
