The latest batch of updates for Windows 7 and Windows Vista has caused problems with the Hold’em Manager (HEM) analytical software program. As a result, the technical support folks at HEM have suggested uninstalling four updates to recover the use of the program until the developers can correct the problem.
A thread on the HEM forums contains instructions with accompanying screenshots to illustrate the process of getting HEM up and running while the developers work on a permanent solution. Users are directed to uninstall four windows updates that were rolled out yesterday, and to turn off automatic updates so as not to encounter the issue again.
Users who have yet to install the updates from yesterday – numbered KB2533623, KB2532531, KB2507938 and KB2555917 – may wish to disable updates until HEM has resolved the conflict.
Three of the four updates are classified by Microsoft as “Security Update[s] for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems.” “[T]he most significant of which fixes a Bluetooth-related vulnerability in Windows 7 and Windows Vista,” according to an article on tech news site The Register.
