Microsoft completely canceled this month’s Patch Tuesday release due to a severe security issue, later confirming that the next Patch Tuesday would arrive on March 14. Ultimately, Microsoft’s engineers changed their minds and decided to push out a Windows 10 update in February after all.

Windows 10 KB4010250 is actually a Flash Player update for Edge and Internet Explorer that fixes 13 critical vulnerabilities found in the tool. The Redmond giant most likely decided to roll out this update due to an increase in the number of attacks targeting the 13 security exploits.
