Version: .NET Framework 4.8

The December 10, 2019 update for Windows 10 version 1607 and Windows Server 2016 includes cumulative reliability improvements in .NET 4.8. We recommend that you apply this update as part of your regular maintenance routines. Before you install this update, see the Prerequisites and Restart requirement sections.

Quality and reliability improvements

ASP.NET

ASP.NET now emits a SameSite cookie header when HttpCookie.SameSite value is "None" to accommodate upcoming changes to SameSite cookie handling in Chrome. As part of this change, FormsAuth and SessionState cookies  are also issued with SameSite = 'Lax' instead of the previous default of 'None', though these values can be overridden in web.config.  Applications that use these cookies across sites – or with iframes – may see a loss of functionality that will require configuration updates to remedy.

WPF1

Addresses an issue where some Per-Monitor Aware WPF applications that host System-Aware or Unaware child-windows, and run on .NET 4.8, may occasionally encounter a crash with exceptionSystem.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException.

CLR2

Addresses an issue where some ClickOnce applications or applications creating the default AppDomain with a restricted permission set may observe application launch or application runtime failures, or unexpected behaviors. The observable issue was the System.AppDomainSetup.TargetFrameworkName is null, leading to any quirks enabling reverting back to .NET Framework 4.0 behaviors.
