If you’re still using Windows 7 and want to update your PC, you should see two new updates: KB4520003 and KB4519976. The first one is a security-only update, while the second one is the monthly rollup. While last month the Patch Tuesday updates for Windows 7 shared a similar changelog, this time they’re a bit different.

KB4520003/KB4519976 changelog

Here’s the full list of improvements and fixes for KB4520003:

Addresses an issue in security bulletin CVE-2019-1318 that may cause client or server computers that don’t support Extended Master Secret (EMS) RFC 7627 to have increased connection latency and CPU utilization. This issue occurs while performing full Transport Layer Security (TLS) handshakes from devices that don’t support EMS, especially on servers. EMS support has been available for all the supported versions of Windows since calendar year 2015 and is being incrementally enforced by the installation of the October 8, 2019 and later monthly updates. Security updates to Windows Authentication, Microsoft JET Database Engine, Windows Kernel, Internet Information Services, and Windows Server.

And the full list for KB4519976, which also includes the changes from KB4516048 (released September 24, 2019):

Addresses an issue that may fail to disable VBScript in Internet Explorer by default after installing KB4507437 (Preview of Monthly Rollup) or KB4511872 (Internet Explorer Cumulative Update) and later. Addresses an issue with applications and printer drivers that utilize the Windows JavaScript engine (jscript.dll) for processing print jobs. Security updates to Windows Authentication, Microsoft JET Database Engine, Windows Kernel, Internet Information Services, the Microsoft Scripting Engine, and Windows Server.

There are currently no known issues for both of the updates. It’s worth mentioning that Microsoft recommends that you first install some SSU’s before trying to install the Windows 7 updates: If you want to manually install the October 2019 Patch Tuesday updates for Windows 7, you can do so by following the links below.
