talked about this new patch, KB2887535, saying:

“As with past updates, this update will not change your current Windows Update or Automatic Updates settings. Anytime Windows Update (or Automatic Updates) is turned ON, either set to automatically install updates or notify to download/install updates, Windows Update will take care of updating itself.”
Technically speaking, this new patch for Windows Update hardens the infrastructure used by WU/MU client, and ensures a more secure communication channel for future updates. And no future update is more high profile than Windows 8.1 Update 2, which many believe will be rolled out via the Windows Update option between August and September. Essentially, this is another way of ensuring faster, better and securer installation of Update 2.]]>
