The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Can someone quickly explain what this is all about?

    I guess they mean individual hotfixes won't be downloaded automatically but rather we will get the big cumulative updates which are bi-weekly

    Unless you have a specific problem seen on your PC config its not a big deal.
    I did have a instance to download machine specific KB article hotfix to fix some printer issues on XP and 7.

    They release update as cumulative updates only now. Unless there is a major flaw or discovery then they will most likely announce a update.
