Fixlet ID: 84277303

Fixlet Description: Microsoft has released an update package that includes BITS 2.0 and WinHTTP 5.1. This package updates BITS to version 2.0 and updates WinHTTP 5.1. These updates help guarantee an optimal download experience when you use future versions of the Automatic Update service, of Microsoft Windows Update, and of other programs that rely on BITS to transfer files by using idle network bandwidth. These updates for BITS and for WinHTTP 5.1 are required components for the new releases of Windows Update and of Automatic Update. BITS 2.0 improves transfer speeds, improves resiliency, and reduces network bandwidth consumption when it transfers files. The new features of BITS 2.0 work with the user identity and isolation optimizations that are included in the WinHTTP 5.1 update to help improve the security and flexibility of data transfers that use BITS. 

Important Note: There are known issues associated with the installation of this patch. See the Known Issues section of the Knowledge Base article for more information.
