Many people thought it was past time for Microsoft to deliver yet another optional upgrade for its current operating system, and they were right.

Fixes

• After you upgrade the OS, an issue occurs that disables auto-startup for Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps.
• Fixes a problem with SystemSettings.exe that causes it to cease working.
• Fixes a problem with searchindexer.exe that causes Microsoft Outlook's offline search to fail to return recent emails.
• Fixes a problem that causes Windows to take longer to start up. When a 5G wireless wide area network (WWAN) device is slow to wake up, a UI thread in a networking API stops responding, causing this problem.
• Fixes a memory leak in the wmipicmp.dll module in the System Center Operations Manager (SCOM) datacenter monitoring system, which was causing a number of false alerts.
• Fixes an issue where the Execution Policy settings in the registry were improperly returned.
• Fixes an issue where current browsers fail to render HTML created by gpresult/h appropriately.
• Fixes an issue that results in a "Access denied" exception for a file during an AppLocker PowerShell test.
• When the number of signed in users surpasses 100, the Remote Desktop Service (RDS)server becomes unreliable, which is fixed. This stops you from utilising RDS on Windows Server 2019 to access published applications.
• When you explore for a domain or organisational unit, you may receive an error notice (OU). This problem arises as a result of incorrect memory zeroing.
• The Group Policy Management Console will no longer work after you close it, due to a bug. GPOAdmin.dll is the failing module, and the system reports Application Error Event ID 1000 with the error 0xc0000005 (STATUS ACCESS VIOLATION).
• The Group Policy Service may stop processing telemetry information for Group Policy Registry Preferences due to an issue.
• The DirectX kernel component has a halt fault (0xD1, DRIVER IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL).
• Fixes a problem in the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service that could cause Kerberos.dll to cease operating (LSASS). When LSASS handles several Service for User (S4U) user-to-user (U2U) requests for the same client user, this happens.
• The Key Distribution Center (KDC) Proxy is affected by this problem. For logging in to Key Trust Windows Hello for Business, the KDC Proxy is unable to receive Kerberos tickets successfully.
• In Azure Active Directory (AAD) Web Account Manager, support for Microsoft Account (MSA) Pass-through situations has been included (WAM).
• When specific password change circumstances, such as failover cluster name object (CNO) or virtual computer object (VCO) password changes, Event ID 37 is logged.
• Fixes an issue when the User Account Control (UAC) dialogue fails to display the application that is requesting elevated access correctly.
• Fixes an issue where pressing the Enter key after renaming a Microsoft OneDrive file causes it to lose focus.
• When you search for the word widgets, it takes you to the appropriate Settings page.
• After a policy update, a problem prohibits Event 4739 from showing the new values of certain characteristics.
• When moving computer accounts between domains, a problem causes the Move-ADObject command to fail. "Multiple values were supplied for a property that can only have one value," says the error message.
• When SMB hardening is enabled, an issue stops you from accessing Server Message Block (SMB) shares using an IP address.
• Fixes a problem in the SMB Server that generates stop error 0x1E. (srv2.sys).
• When you construct a cluster, an issue occurs that causes a mismatch between NetBIOS and DNS Active Directory domain names.
