NOT downloading Window's Update KB925902?

So after reading that thread about how people have been getting relocated DLL registry errors after doing a Windows Update, I've decided not to download the specific Windows Update that causes that problem as someone pointed out in thread.

Do you guys think it'll be alright not to? I would rather not have to deal with the errors. And before you say you can just download the patch, I don't use Realtek, so that patch doesn't really help at all. When I downloaded the KB925902 update, Window's own calculator program didn't work for me (I would get CALC.EXE -- Relocated DLL registry error). I've since reformatted my computer and updated WITHOUT that update and everything works fine. I'm just wondering how long I would have to hold off before I would have to download it, if ever.

 

if u find the update is worse for you

two words: System restore

 

The patch actually DOES help. It's not just for Realtek software, that's just the most common occurrence of the issue. The issue is that an application loads one DLL before another, and Microsoft doesn't deal well with that after the patch (even though it's a perfectly valid thing to do). It's for the general thing that Microsoft screwed up with the initial patch. Go ahead and download both, and you should be fine.

 

I downloaded the update and thankfully I didn't encountered that error, I also don't use realtek...maybe that's the case?
