Improvements

This non-security update includes quality improvements. Key changes include:      

  • New! Adds IP address auditing for incoming Windows Remote Management (WinRM) connections in security event 4262 and WinRM event 91. This addresses an issue that fails to log the source IP address and machine name for a remote PowerShell connection.

  • New! Adds the ability to call SetCredentialsAttribute in user mode for SECPKG_ATTR_CLIENT_CERT_POLICY. 

  • New! Adds Server Message Block (SMB) redirector (RDR) specific publicFile System Control (FSCTL)code FSCTL_LMR_QUERY_INFO.

  • New! Makes the SMB client and SMB server cipher suite order configurable using PowerShell.

  • New! Adds IP address auditing for incoming Windows Remote Management (WinRM) connections in security event 4262 and WinRM event 91. This addresses an issue that fails to log the source IP address and machine name for a remote PowerShell connection.

  • New! Adds Server Message Block (SMB) redirector (RDR) specific public File System Control (FSCTL) code FSCTL_LMR_QUERY_INFO.

  • New! Adds support for Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 in Windows client and server Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) implementations.

  • Addresses an issue that affects the Cloud Clipboard service and prevents syncing between machines after a period of inactivity.

  • Addresses an issue that displays Japanese characters incorrectly in PowerShell.

  • Addresses an issue that fails to show Windows Server 2019 and Windows Server 2022 in certain dropdown menu lists in Server Manager.

  • Addresses issues that block GPU Paravirtualization.

  • Improves GPU usage in scenarios in which multiple users remotely connect to a server that has multiple GPUs installed.

  • Enables the InternetExplorerModeEnableSavePageAs Group Policy. For more information, see Microsoft Edge Browser Policy Documentation.

  • Addresses an issue that causes the GetDoubleClickTime() API to fail on non-interactive window stations. For more information, see GetDoubleClickTime function (winuser.h) and Window Station and Desktop Creation.

  • Addresses an issue that affects the touchpad area that responds to a right-click (the right-click zone). For more information, see Right-click zone.

  • Addresses an issue that affects some certificates chains to Root Certification Authorities that are members of the Microsoft Root Certification Program. For these certificates, the certificate chain status can be, “This certificate was revoked by its certification authority”.

  • Addresses an issue that prevents the use of Encrypted File System (EFS) files over a Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) connection.

  • Addresses an issue that causes a domain controller to incorrectly write Key Distribution Center (KDC) event 21 in the System event log. This occurs when the KDC successfully processes a Kerberos Public Key Cryptography for Initial Authentication (PKINIT) authentication request with a self-signed certificate for key trust scenarios (Windows Hello for Business and Device Authentication).

  • Addresses an issue in which creating Install from Media (IFM) media for Active Directory fails and generates the error, “-2101 JET_errCallbackFailed”.

  • Addresses an issue that occurs when the Active Directory Lightweight Directory Service (LDS) resets the password for userProxy objects. The password reset fails with an error such as, “00000005: SvcErr: DSID-03380C23, problem 5003 (WILL_NOT_PERFORM), data 0”.

  • Addresses an issue that causes the LocalUsersAndGroups configuration service provider (CSP) policy to fail when you modify the built-in Administrators group. This issue occurs if the local Administrator account isn't specified in the membership list when you perform a replace operation.

  • Addresses an issue in which malformed XML inputs might cause an error in DeviceEnroller.exe. This prevents CSPs from being delivered to the device until you restart the device or correct the XML.

  • Addresses an issue that causes Microsoft NTLM authentication using an external trust to fail. This issue occurs when a domain controller that contains the January 11, 2022 or later Windows update services the authentication request, is not in a root domain, and does not hold the Global Catalog role. The affected operations might log the following errors:

    • The security database has not been started.

    • The domain was in the wrong state to perform the security operation.

    • 0xc00000dd (STATUS_INVALID_DOMAIN_STATE).

  • Optimizes access to the State Repository database to help reduce Appx deployment delays or black screens that might occur when you sign in to Windows 2019 Server.

  • Addresses an issue that fails to show Windows Server 2019 and Windows Server 2022 in certain dropdown menu lists in Server Manager.

  • Addresses an issue that causes file copying to be slower because of a wrong calculation of write buffers within cache manager.

Windows 10 servicing stack update - 20348.793

This update makes quality improvements to the servicing stack, which is the component that installs Windows updates. Servicing stack updates (SSU) ensure that you have a robust and reliable servicing stack so that your devices can receive and install Microsoft updates. Key changes include:

  • Addresses an issue that prevents a pre-installed app from working as expected after you install a Windows update.

Known issues in this update

Microsoft is not currently aware of any issues with this update.

How to get this update

Before installing this update

Microsoft now combines the latest servicing stack update (SSU) for your operating system with the latest cumulative update (LCU). For general information about SSUs, see Servicing stack updates and Servicing Stack Updates (SSU): Frequently Asked Questions.

To install the LCU on your Azure Stack HCI cluster, see Update Azure Stack HCI clusters.
