Whenever you update your computer there's an element risk in that
you could introduce new problems therefore when it comes to a new
fix rather than imposing it on all users, many of whom might not even be
experiencing the particular problem, the risk can be minimised and the
support maximised by focusing on specific users.
Also asking for a Hotfix is like entering into a contract whereby you
accept a degree responsibility having been warned that the solution
is still in development.
BTW Vast should read Avast
