MS16-035: Description of the security update for the .NET Framework 4.6 and 4.6.1 in Windows 8.1, Windows RT 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2: March 8, 2016


November 8, 2016 A detection change was made to account for the .NET Framework 4.6.1 hotfix rollup for customers who were not being correctly offered this security update for the .NET Framework 4.6.1.

May 10, 2016 This security update has been re-released and contains updated files. This re-release is intended for LDR (limited distribution release) content customers only. We determined that there were some issues in certain printing scenarios because of a missing dependency. If you use LDR content, we recommend that you apply this updated security update. There are no changes in this re-release for GDR (general distribution release) content customers.
