Re: Atten: HDHomeRun Prime UsersIs that really correct? Info I got is that 3024777 uninstalls 3004394 and that only on Win7 SP1 and 2008 R2 SP1 machines. |

Nope, but I looked on my WSUS and couldn't find 3004384. On the other hand there's lots of info about 3004394 and what it does/brakes. |

RGR that. Fat fingers, eh? edit: If you install 3024777 it will remove 3004394. Probably easier than go through uninstall |

Windows should be more like Linux where 99% of the time you dont have to reboot for updates. |

kernel update 109 days ago, my 2k8r2 though, lasts only from one patch Tuesday to another. 2012 is slightly better but not by much... |

Since it is a DRM issue then it should also impact systems with Centon and ATI cable card tuners. |
