Something New for Embedded Customers
Beginning in August, the Embedded team is introducing a new kind of update for Embedded Customers. These are *optional* software updates that may apply to your application and therefore make your life easier. We have chosen to release these as they come up in even number months around the same time as the Security updates, so that you can review them and determine if you want to download and install them while you are already on the ECE site downloading the Security updates. The nature of these updates is that they are purely optional and may or may not apply to your image.
For example the release this month is an Embedded DQI update created from an XP Pro update. It is applicable *only* to non-USB Boot systems and addresses a problem with USB drivers causing battery drainage on portable devices. Other candidates for these releases will include customer requests for automated solutions to issues that currently have manual workarounds such as orphaned file issues. We hope you will find these Optional Software Update releases useful.
