They effect all currently supported versions of Windows, not just Window 7 and 8 like the links would lead you to believe.
No prizes for guessing which anti-virus dashboard we use.
I have read other sites/posts that stated they did not have Sophos installed. Just wondering if I should follow suit and decline the update.
Those two specific ones, you might want to wait until they release a fix for the fix.

That is currently the plan. Hopefully a fix comes soon.

We have various customers with Sophos Central and I have not seen the reported issue but will find out soon enough....

This is the only known issue with this update. Seems like you wouldn't want this to happen either lol

We are using using Sophos and haven't seen any issues yet. I wonder if its the threat protection or application control policy settings that is affecting the updates.

Running Sophos Central Endpoint here. Have had zero issues on Windows 7 machines after installing 4493472 last night. I have about 35 Windows 7 machines in my domain.

Just what's been posted here already. Nothing about a fix yet.
Our office was swamped from dealing with this today.
-
All the customers using Sophos from us are using Central so no affected here.

Looks like it isn't just Sophos.
