Known issues in this update

Symptom

Workaround

After installing this update, downloading updates using express installation files may fail.

This issue has been resolved in KB4041688.

 

Some users who have the text size for icons set to a larger size (using Display Settings in Control Panel) may have issues launching Internet Explorer.

Reducing the text size for icons to a smaller value or using the Change the size of all items setting should alleviate this issue.

Microsoft is working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.
