SEP hotfix releases are the equivalent to full builds of the client software. How are the hotfixes applied? Is a reboot required? While there is no impact to customers that have already applied this update, Symantec Engineeering recommends picking up one of our upcoming releases as soon as possible. The soft block request was made out of an abundance of caution.

What if KB4512486/KB4512506 has already been applied? These can be applied as part of any upcoming routine operational activities associated with maintaining Symantec Endpoint Protection.

Symantec has completed its evaluation of the impact of this update and future updates to Windows 7/Windows 2008 R2 and has determined that there is no increased risk of a false positive detection for all in-field versions of Symantec Endpoint Protection.
