Still on Drupal 7? Security support for Drupal 7 ended on 5 January 2025. Please visit our Drupal 7 End of Life resources page to review all of your options.
This is how I always update my Drupal site when a security issue is released, but it's not working today.
Drush appears to be replacing all the files in my root Drupal directory, but still then says the version is 8.8.0

Drupal 8.8.0 8.8.1 SECURITY UPDATE available
I moved my site files to my home PC to get around the php memory limit of my provider. But when I put the Drupal 8.8.0 core and vencor directories in place, and run
composer update --no-dev --with-dependencies
The first thing that happens is that the core directory is removed, and I get many errors.
