For information about Windows update terminology, see the article about the types of Windows updates and the monthly quality update types. For an overview of Windows 11, version 22H2, see its update history page.

Note Follow @WindowsUpdate to find out when new content is published to the Windows release health dashboard.

Highlights​

  • New! This update improves the search box experience on the taskbar. As you type in the search box, search results now appear in the search flyout box. You can also change the search experience you want for your taskbar by going to Settings > Personalization > Taskbar. For commercial customers, this update adds a new policy for IT administrators to manage how the search box on the taskbar appears in your organization. For more information, see Customizing search on the Windows 11 taskbar.

  • New! You can now access Windows Studio effects directly from quick settings on the taskbar for devices that have a supported neural processing unit (NPU). This makes it quick and easy to turn on and configure camera effects. These effects include Background blur, Eye contact, Automatic framing, and Audio effects (Voice focus). You can still access these effects in the Settings pages.

  • New! This update makes it easier to get help if you are having PC issues. You can now find Quick Assist in the Start menu’s All apps list.

  • New! This update introduces a touch-optimized taskbar for 2-in-1 devices that you can use as a tablet. There are two states of this taskbar: collapsed and expanded. To switch between the two states, swipe up and down on the bottom of your screen. When collapsed in tablet mode, the taskbar recedes to give you more screen space and keeps you from accidentally opening the taskbar. When expanded in tablet mode, the taskbar is optimized to be easier to use with touch. Your taskbar will automatically change to this optimized version when you disconnect or fold back the keyboard.

    This feature only works on devices that can be used as tablets and is on by default. To change that, go to Settings > Personalization > Taskbar > Taskbar behaviors. The setting is called “Optimize taskbar for touch interactions when this device is used as a tablet.” If your company manages Windows updates for your device, this feature will be off by default. Administrators can turn it on using the new commercial control for continuous innovation.

  • New! This update provides enhanced support for braille devices. They will continue working while you switch between Microsoft Narrator and third-party screen readers. Narrator will automatically change braille drivers. For more information, see Chapter 8: Using Narrator with braille.
  • New! This update also adds support for new braille displays and new braille input and output languages in Narrator. Some of the new braille displays include the APH Chameleon, the APH Mantis Q40, the NLS eReader, and many more. For more information, see Chapter 8: Using Narrator with braille.
  • New! Windows now provides energy recommendations. If you use them, they can help to improve the energy efficiency of your PC and reduce your carbon footprint. Go to Settings > System > Power & Battery > Energy Recommendations.

  • New! For devices that are joined to Azure Active Directory (AAD), Windows now provides AI-powered recommended content on your Start menu. On the Start menu, you will find content to help you to prepare for meetings, quickly access files you're collaborating on, and more.
  • New! This update enhances the system tray. All icons will have a rounded focus and hover treatment in the lower right, including the “Show hidden icons” flyout menu. You can move icons to rearrange them in the “Show hidden icons” flyout menu or move icons to the taskbar.

  • New! This update makes voice access more flexible and supports interaction with more user interface (UI) controls. For example, voice now interacts with controls that contain:

    • Names that have numbers, such as “Click 5”
    • Names without whitespaces between them, such as “click PivotTable” or “click PivotChart”
    • Names that have special characters, such as Bluetooth & devices (“click Bluetooth and devices”) or Dial – up (“click dial hyphen up”)
  • New! Voice now supports spin controls, thumb controls, and split buttons. You interact with these controls by using the “click” command or number overlays. This update also addresses issues that affect snapping commands that snap a window left or right. Commands that move the cursor in a text box now run instantly.
  • New! This update also provides voice scrolling enhancements. You can use voice to scroll to the extreme left and right on a page. You can also use continuous scrolling to the left or right like what is already present for vertical scrolling. For more information about the new voice access commands, see Voice access command list.
  • New! This update makes enhancements to Task Manager. These include:
    • Filtering—You can now filter processes using the binary name, PID, or publisher name. The filter also applies when you switch between pages. The keyboard shortcut is ALT+F.
    • More theme options—You can now choose a theme for Task Manager that is different from the Windows theme. Also, all dialogs, except for Run new task and the Properties dialog, now support themes. The dialogs will use app-specific themes or the Windows theme.

    • Efficiency mode—You can now opt out of confirmation dialogs when you turn on Efficiency mode.

  • This update addresses an issue that affects the Color filters setting. When you select Inverted, the system sets it to Grayscale instead.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects IE mode. The text on the status bar is not always visible.
  • This update addresses an issue that displays a blue screen during video playback. This occurs after you set high dynamic range (HDR) on your display.
  • This update addresses an issue that might affect the touch keyboard and the PIN entry keyboard. You might not be able to use them to enter text when you sign in to your device.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects which folders appear in the Browse for Folder picker.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects File Explorer. When you use Shift+Tab or Shift+F6, the input focus does not move.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the user interface (UI). The volume up and volume down commands from a Bluetooth keyboard do not display.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Xbox subscribers. If you purchased an Xbox subscription using the "Redeem code" option, you cannot see the Xbox subscription card on the Settings Accounts page. This occurs when recurring billing is off.

Improvements​

This non-security update includes quality improvements. When you install this KB:
  • New! This update adds the new Tamil Anjal keyboard for the Tamil language. To add it, make sure Tamil (Singapore), Tamil (Malaysia), Tamil (Sri Lanka), or Tamil (India) appears in Settings > Time & Language > Language & Region. Select the ellipses () next to the language. Select Language Options. Add Tamil Anjal (QWERTY) to the list of keyboards.

  • This update improves the reliability of Windows after you install an update.
  • This update affects the United Mexican States. This update supports the government’s daylight saving time change order for 2023.
  • This update addresses a date information issue. It affects the format of dates sent between Windows and some versions of the Heimdal Kerberos library.
  • This update addresses compatibility issues that affect some printers. These printers use Windows Graphical Device Interface (GDI) printer drivers. These drivers do not completely adhere to GDI specifications.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the software keyboard. It does not appear in the Out-of-Box Experience (OOBE) after a Push-button reset (factory reset). This type of reset requires an external keyboard to be attached to provide credentials.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects AppV. It stops file names from having the correct letter case (uppercase or lowercase).
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Microsoft Edge. The issue removes conflicting policies for Microsoft Edge. This occurs when you set the MDMWinsOverGPFlag in a Microsoft Intune tenant and Intune detects a policy conflict.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects provisioning packages. They fail to apply in certain circumstances when elevation is required.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). Using a provisioning package for bulk provisioning fails.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Universal Print's Configuration Service Provider (CSP). A command prompt window appears when you install a printer.
  • This update addresses a reliability issue that occurs when you use Task View.
  • This update addresses an issue that might affect lsass.exe. It might stop responding. This occurs when it sends a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) query to a domain controller that has a very large LDAP filter.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS). LSASS might stop responding. This occurs after you run Sysprep on a domain-joined machine.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects copying from a network to a local drive. Copying is slower than expected for some users.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects parity virtual disks. Using Server Manager to create them fails.
  • This update addresses an issue that stops hyperlinks from working in Microsoft Excel.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the registry size. It grows very large. This occurs because the registry entries are not removed when users sign out of an Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) environment that uses FSlogix.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the Get_Settings() method. For 32-bit applications, it fails to retrieve the settings for Automatic Update Options.
If you installed earlier updates, only the new updates contained in this package will be downloaded and installed on your device.

Windows 11 servicing stack update - 22621.1344​

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.

Known issues in this update​

Applies toSymptomWorkaround
IT adminsUsing provisioning packages on Windows 11, version 22H2 (also called Windows 11 2022 Update) might not work as expected. Windows might only be partially configured, and the Out Of Box Experience might not finish or might restart unexpectedly. Provisioning packages are .PPKG files which are used to help configure new devices for use on business or school networks. Provisioning packages which are applied during initial setup are most likely to be impacted by this issue. For more information on provisioning packages, please see Provisioning packages for Windows.

Note Provisioning Windows devices using Windows Autopilot is not affected by this issue.

Windows devices used by consumers in their home or small offices are not likely to be affected by this issue.
If you can provision the Windows device before upgrading to Windows 11, version 22H2, this will prevent the issue.

We are presently investigating and will provide an update in an upcoming release.
IT adminsUpdates released February 14, 2023 or later might not be offered from some Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) servers to Windows 11, version 22H2. The updates will download to the WSUS server but might not propagate further to client devices. Affected WSUS servers are only those running Windows Server 2022 which have been upgraded from Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2019. This issue is caused by the accidental removal of required Unified Update Platform (UUP) MIME types during the upgrade to Windows Server 2022 from a previous version of Windows Server. This issue might affect security updates or feature updates for Windows 11, version 22H2. Microsoft Configuration Manager is not affected by this issue.To mitigate this issue, please see Adding file types for Unified Update Platform on premises.

We are working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.
All usersAfter installing this or later updates, Windows devices with some third-party UI customization apps might not start up. These third-party apps might cause errors with explorer.exe that might repeat multiple times in a loop. The known affected third-party UI customization apps are ExplorerPatcher and StartAllBack. These types of apps often use unsupported methods to achieve their customization and as a result can have unintended results on your Windows device.ExplorerPatcher and StartAllBack have released a version that lists this issue as resolved.

Note If you are using any third-party UI customization app and encounter this or any other issues, you will need to contact customer support for the developer of the app you are using.
IT adminsAfter installing updates released January 10, 2023, and later, kiosk device profiles that have auto log on enabled might not sign in automatically. After Autopilot completes provisioning, affected devices will stay on the sign-in screen prompting for credentials.This issue is addressed in KB5023778.
All usersAfter installing this update, some apps might have intermittent issues with speech recognition, expressive input, and handwriting when using Chinese or Japanese languages. Affected apps might sometimes fail to recognize certain words or might be unable to receive any input from speech recognition or affected input types. This issue is more likely to occur when apps are using offline speech recognition.

Note for app developers This issue only affects speech recognition using Speech Recognition Grammar Specification (SRGS) in Windows.Media.SpeechRecognition. Other implementations of speech recognition are not affected.
This issue is addressed in KB5026446.
IT adminsYou might have intermittent issues saving, copying, or attaching files using 32-bit apps, which are large address aware and using the CopyFile API. Windows devices are more likely to be affected by this issue when using some commercial or enterprise security software that uses extended file attributes. Microsoft Office apps, such as Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel are only affected when using 32-bit versions and you might receive the error, "Document not saved."

This issue is unlikely to be experienced by consumers using Windows devices in their home or on non-managed commercial devices. Apps are not affected by this issue if they are 64-bit or 32-bit and NOT large address aware.
This issue is addressed in KB5027231.

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.

Taskbar Icons are shown differently (they're aliened in a line - while expanding the hidden icons bar / instead of a square on top of each-other - like before the update). Not really an issue, i guess.

Energy Recommendations page is missing. The tab is still there...

2023-03-01_181106.png

...but clicking on it does nothing (well, it closes the page - with a short background flash).

Honestly, can't say that i care about this issue (doesn't bother me in the least) - since i have no use for it. It's just something i noticed (prior to the update - there was a number at the end - and clicking on above tab would open a pager with recommendations).

Pressing CTRL+F keys instead of ALT+F keys did the trick for my system! Now I am able to search all tabs of Task Manager except Performance like you confirmed. Thank you for the subtle hints you dropped everywhere in this thread. (y)

UPDATE
OH! I didn't think of this. I have since read other posts discussing tweakers being broken after this update. I *am* using ExplorerPatcher. And I've made a number of tweaks using UWT (Ultimate Windows Tweaker) and Winaero Tweaker. Maybe the problem is there.

file a new issue here so that the creator of ExplorerPatcher can issue an updated version that may work with the KB5022913 update. OR get rid of ExplorerPatcher and use another tweaking tool if ExplorerPatcher's creator is unable to publish a new version

for those using StartAllBack, update to the latest version before installing the KB5022913 update as it doesn't seem to affect recent versions of it as I saw this report in another forum

Not here. I’m using StartAllBack v3.61, and there are no issues to report.

" for those using StartAllBack, update to the latest version before installing the KB5022913 update as it doesn't seem to affect recent versions of it as I saw this report in another forum "..............my experience ; disable SAB and Open-Shell first , reboot , install latest WU , after this install you can enable them all !
Works fine , only my taskbar has some minor changes...............

So on an unapproved Desktop PC this is what happened after this update. Desktop would flash icons occasionally but they weren't able to be clicked on.I could use ctrl+alt+del to open task manager and I could also reboot from there. Wondering what caused it. I removed the update and no problem. Wonder if it could be the desktop image or Explorer Patcher. I'm gonna uninstall Epatcher and see what happens.

If you can't get the translucency do the following; In Vivetool (I prefer the GUI vs terminal command) in the top left box where it says select build just select the first build it shows, when its done type in the search box 26008830, that should bring you to STTest highlighted. Now click on perform action in vivetool GUI and select deactivate feature and it should say disabled next to STTest. Close all windows, reboot your computer and your task bar should be transparent again. If you use the command window put in the same code.
Also fixed the expanded systray icons, spread out too much. Just a S.W.A.G. but maybe STTest means Spacing Taskbar Test. ;-)

Mine, too, but it removed the dark, rounded balloon feature on hover as well. I reverted to the spread-out systray icons, just because.

file a new issue here so that the creator of ExplorerPatcher can issue an updated version that may work with the KB5022913 update. OR get rid of ExplorerPatcher and use another tweaking tool if ExplorerPatcher's creator is unable to publish a new version

An update today for ExplorerPatcher says it fixes what looks like the same issue for Windows 10 build 22621.1344:
Windows 10 taskbar: Fixed a bug that crashed explorer on OS build 22621.1344. (f9d702e)
I wonder if this fix works for windows 11 as well.

I cannot open an issue or comment on Github because that's closed to non-contributors. Maybe I can email the author.
