A List of All Changes in the February 2013 Cumulative Update


This article continues my series of attempting to put all of the various changes in a Cumulative Update into a single place.  This post only covers the February 2013 Cumulative Update for SharePoint 2010.  The details regarding the specific CU changes for SharePoint 2007 and for SharePoint 2013 can be found on the Microsoft site with the usual obfuscation.

  • Consider the following scenario:
    • You try to open a document from a document library in SharePoint Foundation 2010.
    • SharePoint Foundation 2010 cannot connect to the back-end SQL server.
    • Microsoft Forefront tries to scan the document.

In this scenario, the W3wp.exe process stops responding. Therefore, the following scan requests are in a pending state.

  • When you delete a list item from a project task list in Project Tasks view, the list item does not appear in the Recycle Bin. Instead, the list item is deleted permanently.
  • Consider the following scenario:
    • You create a calendar list in SharePoint Foundation 2010.
    • You add an all-day event to the calendar list.
    • You create a Gantt view for the calendar list.

    • You click the custom list on the Quick Launch bar.
    • You rest the mouse pointer over the heading that you added.

In this scenario, the flyout menu for the heading is displayed behind the Datasheet view. Therefore, you cannot access the menu.
