    Ok, so a newer version should be fine I guess. If that’s the case, the title should be: “If you’re still running these prehistoric software, Windows won’t be able to update“

        Can’t complain about that conclusion either. It fixes all your Windows problems once and for all.

        Yeah, and the headline is supposed to maximize the clicks, along with your fear, hatred and rage.

      i’m still not really sure why this would matter. Does updating break that software? Seems like an easy fix.

        That was a weird article. The simplest fix would be to keep your apps updated.

        Although, in typical MS style, the error message will probably be either vague and cryptic or otherwise completely useless. If you stumble upon an update problem like this, troubleshooting it doesn’t sound fun.
