  • This update addresses a known issue that affects BitLocker data-only encryption. A mobile device management (MDM) service, such as Microsoft Intune, might not get the right data. This occurs when you use the FixedDrivesEncryptionType or SystemDrivesEncryptionType policy settings in the BitLocker configuration service provider (CSP) node.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Access Point Name (APN) profiles. It stops you from automatically configuring APN profiles for cellular enabled devices. This occurs when you run the “netsh mbn show readyinfo *” command.

  • This update addresses an issue that occurs when you change the keyboard language. The change fails to apply to RemoteApps in some scenarios.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Windows Local Administrator Password Solution (LAPS) Post Authentication Actions (PAA). The actions occur at restart instead of at the end of the grace period.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Active Directory. Bind requests to IPv6 addresses fail. This occurs when the requestor is not joined to a domain.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the LocalUsersAndGroups CSP. It stops processing group memberships if it cannot find a group.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Group Policy Folder Redirection in a multi-forest deployment. The issue stops you from choosing a group account from the target domain.

This issue affects all Enhanced Security Admin Environment (ESAE), Hardened Forests (HF) or Privileged Access Management (PAM) deployments.
  • This update changes a setting in Active Directory Users & Computers. By default, the snap-in now uses a strong certificate mapping of X509IssuerSerialNumber. It does not use the weak mapping of x509IssuerSubject.

Windows 11 servicing stack update - 22621.3073 and 22631.3073​

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
All usersWindows devices using more than one (1) monitor might experience issues with desktop icons moving unexpectedly between monitors or other icon alignment issues when attempting to use Copilot in Windows (in preview).This issue is addressed on the service-side for Windows 11, versions 22H2 and 23H2 on devices with updates released January 9, 2024, or later.

Note Managed devices in your environment that have been used or are currently being used in a multimonitor configuration will not yet have Copilot for Windows available.

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.

File information

Yeah. I've noticed they are giving Copilot to iOS and Android.
It'll be like the Bubonic Plague of days gone by.

I can't open more than one Explorer window now.
Wait... yes I can. I have to right click a drive and choose "Open in new window".

That's really dumb. I used to just be able to double click the desktop ThisPC icon to open a new Explorer window.
It is still simple, instead of using the File Explorer shortcut that MS puts in the taskbar, make a shortcut on the desktop of the explorer.exe that is in the C:\Windows folder.
That will open a new explorer window every time you double click on it. 😉

Make a shortcut of explorer.exe. Right click > copy > paste a shortcut on the desktop. 😉

That works. :-)

Just what I need. Another desktop shortcut.
I'll still probably end up using ThisPC. I've only been using ThisPC, for about 25 years. :/
Or Computer, or MyComputer... etc., etc., etc.



Or back when ships were wood and men were iron...

I like desktop shortcuts, when they work to do what I need.
I was also disappointed that the File Explorer shortcut could only open one window.
Then I found out this shortcut workaround and did not care anymore. I just hope MS doesn't screw that up too. 😂😜🤬

If any of you find a way to resolve the problem with the tabs... ViveTool and how to disable the Tabs in the File Explorer?
I posted one workaround, but hopefully, there will be a better solution.
I don't really want to disable Tabs in file explorer, I just don't use them. 😂
This one was creating problems in the past. I have not tried to disable it in this Build. 😎

Looks like it is ignored, WASDK is now enabled by default. 🤷‍♂️

You can do the same thing with Notepad tabs.

I like the tabs. Here's how i open more than one File Explorer

You can drag them back in if you want

You can do the same thing with Notepad tabs.
No need for a video for that, it was explained in one of the MS blogs. 😎
I still don't care for it. 😜

yup I don't like the idea of AI running on my PC.. lol
Me neither, I blocked AI and Bing via DNS (it can be done via HOSTS as well).
I was also disappointed that the File Explorer shortcut could only open one window.
You can use middle button on the shortcut to open another window.

Both devices updated. Two failed downloads on my desktop, but I put that down to internet interruption (we had strong winds in the UK this morning, and there could have been power cuts somewhere). All good now.

No problems detected so far. I'm hoping this will resolve the minor search issue I was having soon after startup. I'll find out the next time I do a search!

Pretty fast... BUT... it has an issue with TranslucentTB. Can't open Windows Explorer.

Went back to 22631.3007
SFC came up clean but File Explorer was broken on 22631.3085

This happened once before... had something to do with File Explorer tabs?


@Edwin

Do you remember what was the cause of this broken File Explorer, about 6-8 months ago?
Seer post #5 below, too.
Explorer works fine for me with TranslucentTB.

The solution had nothing to do with TranslucentTB.

File Explorer was breaking after this update... "because" I had File Explorer tabs disabled.
See post #15

Starting with 22631.3085, you must have File Explorer tabs... enabled.
If you don't have File Explorer tabs, enabled, and you apply KB5034204... File Explorer will not open. :/





I only use Winaero Tweaker and TranslucentTB. So those using Explorer Patcher or StartAllBack, may have different results.

What middle button are you referring to?
He just means that if you left-click the FE icon, you get an Explorer window, and if you then click (not turn) your mouse wheel, you'll get another FE window. You can then drag those apart if you wish. Some people refer to the wheel as "the middle button."

Click on the wheel works, thanks.
This works too, right click on the icon in the taskbar and click File Explore. I still like my desktop shortcut of explorer.exe better. 😉
