We are working with the .NET team to ensure that Exchange customers have a smooth transition to .NET Framework 4.6.1, but in the meantime, -delay- this particular .NET update on your Exchange servers…"

Deja vu all over again: Microsoft reissues KB 2952664, KB 2976978, KB 2977759
The three Win7/8.1 updates have returned and brought the warmed-over KB 3138612 and 3138615 Windows Update patches with them
- http://www.infoworld.com/article/3040069/microsoft-windows/deja-vu-all-over-again-microsoft-reissues-kb-2952664-kb-2976978-kb-2977759.html
Mar 2, 2016 - "Yesterday, Microsoft re-re-released three patches - KB 2952664, KB 2976978 and KB 2977759 - all of which offer "compatibility" updates for those of you hell-bent on upgrading from Windows 7 or 8.1 to Windows 10 via Windows Update. We also received two -new- patches - KB 3138612 and KB 3138615 - that update Windows Update by replacing their tired, old counterparts… If you're running Windows 7 and headed to Windows 10 sometime soon, then by all means, install the 'patch'. If not, fuhgeddaboutit… Bottom line: Unless Windows Update is horribly slow, I don't see any reason at all to install any of these 'optional' updates."
