Improvements
This non-security update includes quality improvements. Key changes include:
-
Improves the reliability of a push-button reset after an OS upgrade.
-
Addresses an issue that makes the tenant restrictions event logging channel inaccessible if you remove the EN-US language pack.
-
Updates the Remove-Item cmdlet to properly interact with Microsoft OneDrive folders.
-
Addresses an issue that prevents certain troubleshooting tools from opening.
-
Addresses an issue that causes port mapping conflicts for containers.
-
Addresses an issue that causes Code Integrity to continue trusting a file after the file has been modified.
-
Addresses an issue that might cause Windows to stop working when you enable Windows Defender Application Control with the Intelligent Security Graph feature turned on.
-
Addresses an issue that triggers lockout policies faster when you use Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) with fast reconnect and Network Level Authentication (NLA) is disabled. This issue occurs when you call LogonUser() with a blank password.
-
Provides the option to configure an alternate login ID for an Azure Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) adapter for on-premises scenarios. You can disable the alternate login ID as required. To configure the Azure MFA ADFS adapter to ignore an alternate login ID, run the following PowerShell command:
-
Set-AdfsAzureMfaTenant -TenantId '<TenandID>' -ClientId '981f26a1-7f43-403b-a875-f8b09b8cd720' -IgnoreAlternateLoginId $true.
To restart the ADFS service on each server in the farm, use the Restart-Service adfssrv PowerShell command.
The adapter configuration will only ignore Alternate Login ID when IgnoreAlternateLoginId is explicitly set to $true using the command above. If you do not set IgnoreAlternateLoginId or if you set it to $false, the default behavior occurs, which causes the adapter to use the Alternate Logon ID settings.
-
-
Reduces the overhead of resource contention in high input/output operations per second (IOPS) scenarios that have many threads contending on a single file.
-
Addresses an issue that prevents the Storage Migration Service (SMS) from completing inventory on servers that have many shares. The system logs error event 2509 in Microsoft-Windows-StorageMigrationService/Admin channel (ErrorId=-2146233088/ErrorMessage="Invalid table id").
-
Addresses an issue that causes the Windows profile service to fail sporadically. The failure might occur when signing in. The error message is, “gpsvc service failed to sign in. Access denied”.
-
Enforces a hardening change that requires printers and scanners that use smart cards for authentication to have firmware that complies with section 3.2.1 of RFC 4556. If they do not comply, Active Directory domain controllers will not authenticate them. For more information about this change, see KB5005408.
-
Addresses a known issue that affects Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps. These apps might not open on devices that you have reset. This includes mobile device management (MDM) resets, such as Reset this PC, Push-button reset, and Autopilot Reset.
If you installed earlier updates, only the new updates contained in this package will be downloaded and installed on your device.

If you want to remove the LCU

Running Windows Update Standalone Installer (wusa.exe) with the /uninstall switch on the combined package will not work because the combined package contains the SSU. You cannot remove the SSU from the system after installation.
