Security only updates for Server 2012 still showing as being required

Question

We have several 2012 servers still online. The majority of them successfully installed the Security and Quality rollup for both September 2023 and October 2023. Yet, the compliance report shows they still require the Security Only updates from the same months. Has anyone else seen this? BTW, I did manually install those month's Security Only updates on two of our servers that previously installed the Quality update.

Hi, @Nagle, Mark

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

Extended Security Updates (ESUs) are available for purchase and will continue for three years, renewable on an annual basis, until the final date on October 13, 2026. For more information, see Windows Server End of Support: Key Dates.
