  • Last month’s Patch Tuesday update can break File History in Windows.
  • A fix is available through a new optional preview update.
  • But the fix doesn’t apply to Windows 11 23H2 or Windows 10.

The KB number will vary depending on your Windows 11 edition. Users of Windows 11 26H1 will find KB5124006 waiting for them. Those who run Windows 11 25H2 or 25H2 will discover KB5124010. Just click the Download & install link to run it. Even though this is a preview update, which can be buggy, this is your only option for now if you depend on File History. If not, you can wait until the October Patch Tuesday rollout, which will carry the same fix.
