Introduction

This August 2017 Update for Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 includes cumulative reliability improvements in the .NET Framework 3.5.1. We recommend that you apply this update as part of your regular maintenance routines. Before you install this update, see the "Prerequisites" and "Restart requirement" sections.

Important

  • If you install a language pack after you install this update, you must reinstall this update. Therefore, we recommend that you install any language packs that you need before you install this update. For more information, see Add language packs to Windows.

Quality and reliability improvements

CLR

  • Very rarely, an instance of ReaderWriterLock may crash when releasing a lock. A new configuration variable is introduced to enable opting in to the fix. Set the environment variable COMPlus_ReaderWriterLock_UseFixedIdGeneration to 1 when you start the application to fix the issue.

WMI

  • Code was changed to make the setting of the permissions event-driven so that it could support changes in the option values.
