Improvements 

This security update includes quality improvements. Below is a summary of the key issues that this update addresses when you install this KB. If there are new features, it lists them as well. The bold text within the brackets indicates the item or area of the change we are documenting.

  • [Software Defined Networking (SDN)] New! The SDN API now performs better for large-scale deployments. Watch for load balancer connectivity issues after you install this update. If you have any, move the SDNAPI microservice to another node. An SDN admin can move the service. To do that, use the Move-ServiceFabricPrimaryReplica PowerShell cmdlet.

  • [MSIX applications] Fixed: When you install them from an HTTPS URI, they fail to open. This issue occurs when the download of the app is not complete. This damages the package.

  • [Task Manager] Fixed: It stops responding when you select the “Performance” tab.

  • [Direct Composition batched presentations] Fixed: A brief flash of triangles or boxes show on the screen. This issue affects browsers, like Microsoft Edge, and other apps.

  • [Input Method Editor (IME)] Fixed: When a combo box has input focus, a memory leak might occur when you close that window.

  • [AppLocker] Fixed: The rule collection enforcement mode is not overwritten when rules merge with a collection that has no rules. This occurs when the enforcement mode is set to “Not Configured.”

  • [Remote Desktop Gateway Service] Fixed: The service stops responding. This occurs when a service uses remote procedure calls (RPC) over HTTP. Because of this, the clients that are using the service disconnect.
