I would go for D.

Uninstall is not available either because no information is available on how to roll back the hotfix, or other hotfixes have been installed after the problematic one. In that case, it is not safe to remove the problematic hotfix without uninstalling the ones installed afterwards.

The following is quoted from :https://technet.microsoft.com/library/ee532075.aspx#_Toc241331393
“Be aware that programs that you have installed or updated after installing the hotfix might not work correctly after you uninstall the hotfix.”
