Windows Update KB4023057
Anybody else get offered this update today, 9-9-21?
KB4023057: Update for Windows 10 Update Service components
KB4023057 was previously installed on 6-18-21. So is today's version an update on that older one or...?
Both are listed as "successful" in the Windows Update History.

@ky331 Thanks for the feedback.
Any ideas why they pushed it again today?
I would have thunk if it was an update/fix for the prior version that they would have given it a new KB number. There's nothing on the page I linked to indicate that today's update is "version 2" of that KB.
Just another in the never-ending series of "Mysteries from Redmond"...

Keep in mind, the Malicious Software Removal Tool still has the same KB number month-after-month, KB890830 , even though it is continually updated.

@ky331 Yes, the MSRT KB number is the same every month, but at least they increment the version number so it's obvious it's new each time:
MSRT installed here 8-10-21 says v5.92
MSRT installed here 7-27-21 says v5.91
MSRT installed here 6-08-21 says v5.90
etc.
Just wish they'd tell us what changed and why when they repeat the same KB number without any version numbers.
