Microsoft to Test Windows 7 Update Process

Microsoft to Test Windows 7 Update Process on May 12

Microsoft plans to test the update process for Windows 7 on Tuesday, May 12 by sending out phony patches to PCs running the newest release candidate. As many as 10 updates will be issued; none will contain fixes or new features. Microsoft ran a similar test for Windows 7 update capabilities in February. Users who do not wish to receive the test updates can change the appropriate settings in their Windows Update control panel.
