Microsoft issues second 'final' Windows 7 update
Microsoft has issued a fresh update for Windows 7, just days after it said it would provide no more patches for the ageing operating system. Security consultant Graham Cluley tweeted: "That didn't take long. Microsoft backs down on 'no more updates for Windows 7' in order to fix stretched wallpaper bug." Later it said: "We are working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release, which will be released to all customers running Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.". Microsoft officially ended support for Windows 7 on 14 January, although ESU subscribers will continue to receive security updates. One in four Windows users is still running Windows 7, according to measurement website StatCounter.
