Microsoft Cumulative and .NET Update Preview (4306196)

Microsoft offers an update which they classify as Preview of Monthly Rollup and the definition can be located in this Microsoft documentation. These types of previews can be seen for Cumulative Updates and are not limited to, but may include things like Win10 Cumulative Update Preview and Cumulative Update Preview for .NET.

The patching team here at Quest does everything we can to be as inclusive as possible. That being said, these Cumulative Preview updates are set to automatically update non-Preview Cumulative updates as well. The impact of updating all production systems to a Preview, possibly without approval, has created the necessity to remove these from the KACE Patch Catalog for the time being.

We are not offering preview updates in the KACE Patch catalog at this time.

Note: Though the terminology is similar, there is a difference between updates for preview products vs. preview updates for products. We are not offering these preview updates, but we still offer some updates for preview products. One example is Microsoft 365 Apps Update - Current Channel (Preview).
