The Windows 10 April 2018 Update will reach end of service on November 12, 2019 for Home and Pro editions. We will begin updating devices running the Windows 10 April 2018 Update starting July 16, 2019 to help ensure that these devices remain in a serviced and secure state. For more information, see the Windows 10, version 1903 section of the release information dashboard.

Note Follow @WindowsUpdate to find out when new content is published to the release information dashboard.

Reminder: March 12 and April 9 will be the last two Delta updates for Windows 10, version 1803. Security and quality updates will continue to be available via the express and full cumulative update packages. For more information on this change please visit our blog.

Starting with update KB4499183, we are introducing functionality that allows you to decide when to install a feature update. You control when you get a feature update while simultaneously keeping your devices up to date. Feature updates that are available for eligible devices will appear in a separate module on the Windows Update page (Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update). If you would like to get an available update right away, select Download and install now. To find out more about this feature, please go to this blog. 

When Windows 10 devices are at, or within several months of reaching, end of service, Windows Update will begin to automatically initiate a feature update. This keeps those devices supported and receiving the monthly updates that are critical to device security and ecosystem health.

For more information about the various types of Windows updates, such as critical, security, driver, service packs, etc., please see the following article.

Highlights

  • Updates an issue that prevents a device from recognizing a Microsoft account until you sign out and sign in again.

  • Updates an issue that affects applications that manage files, folders, and device settings.

  • Improves compatibility with the Window-Eyes screen reader application.

  • Updates an issue to keep your App permissions settings when resetting your device.

Improvements and fixes

This update includes quality improvements. Key changes include:

  • Addresses a performance issue that may occur on some websites that use WebAssembly.

  • Addresses an issue that may prevent the personal identification number (PIN) prompt from appearing when authenticating in Internet Explorer.

  • Updates time zone information for Brazil.

  • Addresses an issue that fails to bypass automatic sign in (Autologon) when you press and hold the Shift key during startup.

  • Addresses an issue that prevents the Windows Event Log service from processing notifications that the log is full. This causes issues with some Event Log behaviors such as archiving the log when it reaches a maximum file size and you’ve configured the "Archive the log when full, do not overwrite events" setting. Additionally, the Local Security Authority (LSA) cannot handle CrashOnAuditFail scenarios when the Security Log is full, and events cannot be written.

  • Addresses an issue that prevents a system from recognizing a Microsoft account or Azure Active Directory account until the user signs out and signs in again.

  • Addresses an issue that may prevent the Netlogon service from establishing a secure channel and reports the error, “0xC000007A – ERROR_PROC_NOT_FOUND.”

  • Addresses an issue that doesn't update the personal identification number (PIN) policy (minimum length, required digits, special characters, and so on) for Windows Hello for Business when a PIN already exists on the machine..

  • Addresses an issue that may sometimes cause systems that have Trusted Platform Module (TPM) devices to stop working.

  • Addresses an issue that may cause authentication to fail when using Windows Hello for Business on a server running Windows Server 2016 with the Server Core option installed.

  • Addresses an issue that causes a device to stop working because of a race condition between stream tear down and sync root disconnect.

  • Addresses an issue that causes applications that use windows.storage.dll to stop working and displays ExceptionCode c0000005 (Access violation) when the process closes.

  • Reinforces the Certificate Revocation List (CRL) on Internet Key Exchange version 2 (IKEv2) machines for certificate-based virtual private network (VPN) connections, such as Device Tunnel, in an Always On VPN deployment.

  • Improves performance for Server Message Block (SMB) clients that have directories that contain more than 500,000 files.

  • Addresses an issue that prevents Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) scripting from working if you run it when you’re not connected to a domain controller (DC). App-V scripting also fails when you run it in an environment that only contains Microsoft Azure Active Directory.

  • Addresses an issue with opening or using the Window-Eyes screen reader application that may result in an error and prevent some features from functioning as expected.

  • Addresses an issue that may fail to keep App permissions settings when you select Keep myfiles after selecting Reset this PC.

  • Addresses an issue that may cause a cluster node to lose membership in a cluster and cause all its workloads to fail over. This issue may occur when a cluster node creates a Live Dump.

  • Addresses an issue that causes a Windows device to incorrectly register host A records for two network interface controllers (NIC) after establishing a virtual private network (VPN) connection to the corporate domain. This occurs when the device is configured with two NICs and one of them is a VPN. To implement this solution, make the following registry changes and then restart your device:

    Setting: DisableNRPTForAdapterRegistration

    Path: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters

    Type: DWORD

    Value: A value of 1 means that only the host A records for the VPN interface will register on an active VPN connection. A value of 0 (default) means host A records will also be registered for other local interfaces.

If you installed earlier updates, only the new fixes contained in this package will be downloaded and installed on your device.

Known issues in this update

Symptom

Workaround

Certain operations, such as rename, that you perform on files or folders that are on a Cluster Shared Volume (CSV) may fail with the error, “STATUS_BAD_IMPERSONATION_LEVEL (0xC00000A5)”. This occurs when you perform the operation on a CSV owner node from a process that doesn’t have administrator privilege.

Do one of the following:

  • Perform the operation from a process that has administrator privilege.

  • Perform the operation from a node that doesn’t have CSV ownership.

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

We are investigating reports that a small number of devices may startup to a black screen during the first logon after installing updates.

This issue is resolved in KB4519978.

Devices that start up using Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) images from Windows Deployment Services (WDS) or System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) may fail to start with the error "Status: 0xc0000001, Info: A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed" after installing this update on a WDS server.

This issue is resolved in KB4512509.

Devices connected to a domain that is configured to use MIT Kerberos realms may not start up or may continue to restart after installation of this update. Devices that are domain controllers or domain members are both affected.

If you are not sure if your device is affected, contact your administrator. Advanced users can check if this registry key exists HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\Kerberos\MitRealms or for “Define interoperable Kerberos v5 realm settings” policy under Computer Configuration -> Policies -> Administrative Templates > System -> Kerberos.

This issue is resolved in KB4512501.
