Fellow Solo and Go Pro owners! Apple is no longer supporting quicktime on windows machines with security updates!
So if you use Go Pro studio (or even have it installed on your machine) then you also have quicktime, as go pro studio requires it.
This only applies to those of us running windows, this does not affect mac users. If you don't want to have a gaping security hole on your windows machine then you should uninstall quicktime. And unfortunately most likely need to find an alternative to Go Pro Studio.
Here are a few links concerning the matter. The last link is instructions on how to uninstall quicktime, I hope this info is useful for someone!! It is for me because I am an IT guy that is very conscious about info sec.
US Government recommends Windows users to uninstall QuickTime on their PCs - MSPoweruser
Apple stops patching QuickTime for Windows despite 2 active vulnerabilities
