  • 1.  Windows 7 extended support

    Posted Dec 13, 2018 12:01 PM

    All,

      curious if anyone has any idea on if Symantec is going to be able to support patching for the customers that pay for extended support.

    for WinXP it SUCKED.. royally was horrible for me... i had to basically do a custom filter to target my machines, create software then policy to deploy it.. FOR EVERY PATCH!!!!! i think i did an article for it as well but come Win7, I think there are so many more variants that it would take days to do...

     

    anyone else in this situation?
