Highlights​

  • New! Introducing search highlights
    Search highlights will present notable and interesting moments of what’s special about each day—like holidays, anniversaries, and other educational moments in time both globally and in your region. To see search highlights, click or tap on the search icon on your taskbar.

    For enterprise customers, search highlights will also feature the latest updates from your organization and suggest people, files, and more.

    Search highlights will roll out to Windows 11 customers over the next several weeks. We are taking a phased and measured approach. Broad availability will occur in the coming months. For group configuration information, see Group configuration: search highlights in Windows.


    Windows 11 search highlights

  • Addresses an issue that might prevent you from upgrading to Windows 11 (original release). Note that this is related to the timing of certain operations within the OS and is not related to device eligibility.
  • Addresses an issue that might prevent you from playing video clips in some games.
  • Addresses an issue that causes certain games to stop working if they use certain audio technology to play sound effects.
  • Addresses an issue that prevents Bluetooth from reconnecting to some audio devices after you restart the devices.
  • Changes the name of the Your Phone app to Phone Link on the Settings page.
  • Addresses an issue that causes the Microsoft Surface Dial customization settings page to stop working.
  • Addresses a known issue that might prevent you from using the Wi-Fi hotspot feature.

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 Server Message Block (SMB) redirector (RDR) specific public File System Control (FSCTL) code FSCTL_LMR_QUERY_INFO.
  • New! Makes the SMB client and SMB server cipher suite order configurable using PowerShell.

    Windows 11 search highlights

  • New! Adds support for Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 in Windows client and server Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) implementations.
  • Addresses a race condition issue that might cause an upgrade to Windows 11 (original release) to fail.
  • Addresses an issue that displays Japanese characters incorrectly in PowerShell.
  • Addresses an issue that affects the Cloud Clipboard service and prevents syncing between machines after a period of inactivity.
  • Addresses an issue that fails to hide the Windows Sandbox startup screen after Sandbox starts to run .
  • Addresses an issue that causes a device that has a Japanese system locale to stop working when you disable end-user-defined characters (EUDCs).
  • Enables the InternetExplorerModeEnableSavePageAs Group Policy. For more information, see Microsoft Edge Browser Policy Documentation.
  • Provides the ability to use a network proxy during Universal Print operations.
  • Addresses an issue that might cause playback of consecutive video clips to fail in games that use DirectX 12 (DX12).
  • Addresses an issue that causes certain games to stop working if they use the XAudio API to play sound effects.
  • 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 that prevents Bluetooth from reconnecting to some audio devices after you restart the devices.
  • Addresses an issue that occurs when the Active Directory Lightweight Directory Service (AD LDS) resets the password for userProxy objects. When you try to reset someone else's password and you are authenticated using a simple bind, the password reset fails. The error is like, “00000005: SvcErr: DSID-03380C23, problem 5003 (WILL_NOT_PERFORM), data 0”.
  • 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).
  • 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 might cause Windows 11 (original release) to stop working when you install an application and there is no network connectivity.
  • Updates the Start menu to display Windows PowerShell when you right-click (Win + X) the Start button after you have uninstalled Windows Terminal.
  • Changes the name of the Your Phone app to Phone Link on the Settings page.
  • Addresses an issue that causes the Microsoft Surface Dial customization settings page to stop working.
  • Addresses a known issue that might prevent you from using the Wi-Fi hotspot feature. When attempting to use the hotspot feature, the host device might lose the connection to the internet after a client device connects.
If you installed earlier updates, only the new updates contained in this package will be downloaded and installed on your device.

How to get this update​

Before installing this update

Microsoft 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.

Install this update

Release ChannelAvailableNext Step
Windows Update or Microsoft UpdateYesGo to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update. In the Optional updates available area, you’ll find the link to download and install the update.
Windows Update for BusinessNoNone. These changes will be included in the next security update to this channel.
Microsoft Update CatalogYesTo get the standalone package for this update, go to the Microsoft Update Catalog website.
Windows Server Update Services (WSUS)NoYou can import this update into WSUS manually. See the Microsoft Update Catalog for instructions.

If you want to remove the LCU

To remove the LCU after installing the combined SSU and LCU package, use the DISM/Remove-Package command line option with the LCU package name as the argument. You can find the package name by using this command: DISM /online /get-packages.

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.

Had a most distressing experience with KB5014668 today. Not only did the Update fail, but, afterwards all process ran like 10x slower (with system interrupts permanent at 70% CPU). System was essentialy hosed.

So, I ran a System Restore (from latest restore point). Kept hanging at 'system restore initializing' (way too long for a SSD). Finally was able to return to 'last known good' restore point via Safe Mode.

It was the Night of Hell, though. Caveat emptor.

LOL. Already have that, but both failed as well (when it rains, it pours). Seems the disk order (in computer management) changed (I use an occassional eSATA disk as well, thoroughly confusing Macrium Reflect Free when trying to restore the backup (both 1 on my extra SSD, and 1 on my NAS even), leaving it wanting to clobber over disk 4, which should be disk 5.

Not really the point, though. It was rare to see a day that bad. Both full backups in unusable state, then restore point that wouldn't restore normally.

It's not the disk access speed, it the processing. In my experience, even though system restore can work, it has an awful lot of processing to do and takes (seemingly) forever.

I find that it's actually quicker to do a full restore from a Macrium Reflect image.

Agreed. :) I've done Macrium Reflect restores before, and they're a breeze. Buy, because apparently, the disk order (in disk management changed), it wanted to only restore disk 4; and disk 5 (my boot SSD), it no longer had a restore step for (presumably because it also wanted to restore to disk 4). I could browse both images just fine, but Macrium Reflect could no longer both restore them. Using EaseUS Todo Backup now fot test.

Advantage of using vhdx files -- simply boot from any windows ISO into command mode and restore the old vhdx file via cp command !! -- you don't even need to use any imaging backup (although Macrium usually works without fail).

    This replaced my Linux Notebook. I've used Windows since V2, tried various Linux distros but Windows continues to win for me.

Running 22000739 on a fully compatible PC that's been running W11 with no probs since day one. Today, I tried to install KB5014668 (six times) and got this message: "We couldn't install this update, but you can try again (0x80073701)." Tried WU troubleshooter, tried with third-party malware program disabled, restarted many times, ran Disk Cleanup, ran CCleaner, and no luck.

Oddly, the same update installed without any hiccups at all on my non-compliant (everything compliant except CPU generation is one down), and it seems to be running just fine.

Any ideas as to what I should try in order to get this update to install?

Thanks,

Dan
