How to get this update
Before you install 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.
Prerequisite for offline OS image servicing:
Make sure that your image includes KB5030216 (09/12/2023) or a later LCU. If not, install it on your offline media before you install the latest update. This LCU updates the SSU version to 20348.1960. That is the minimum SSU version you must have to prevent error 0x800f0823 (CBS_E_NEW_SERVICING_STACK_REQUIRED).

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.
