Got the update via Windows Update and all installed on my Windows 10.
According to Microsoft - to apply the latest OS patch for the Meltdown vulnerability WebRoot needs to make a change (see below). It do NOT see the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionQualityCompat entry using RegEdit on my machine. When will WebRoot make the needed update?

Due to an issue with some versions of Anti-Virus software, this fix is only being made applicable to the machines where the Anti virus ISV has updated the ALLOW REGKEY.
Contact your Anti-Virus AV to confirm that their software is compatible and have set the following REGKEY on the machine
Key="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"Subkey="SOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionQualityCompat"
Value Name="cadca5fe-87d3-4b96-b7fb-a231484277cc"
Type="REG_DWORD”
