Daniel - Martin Brinkmann over at GHacks has posted a list of all those optional updates: http://www.ghacks.net/2015/06/17/microsoft-releases-batch-of-non-security-patches-for-windows-june-2015/?_m=3n.0038.1642.dh0ao06kf3.1pec
Looks like the majority are to fix issues specific to certain machines (configurations).

I've been using 8 a little more recently just to keep it active for the free 10 upgrade and yes, there are a lot of updates.
However, on neither of my Win 8 installations do I get the Win 10 notification, even though both are totally kosher.
Marc, you don't see the update notification because you're running a TechNet copy of Win 8.1.

Optional files are not necessary and there for personal choice. The explanations are often almost difficult to understand, so users are left wondering should I install? Well, I believe that if I have problems with the o/s, then maybe, but I resist as much much possible since it also might create a bigger problem elsewhere. IMHO, I opt out of the installation, Mindblower!
