Windows 11, version 23H2​

Important: Use EKB KB5027397 to update to Windows 11, version 23H2.

This security update includes quality improvements. Key changes include:
  • This build includes all the improvements in Windows 11, version 22H2.

Windows 11, version 22H2​

This security update includes improvements that were a part of update KB5040527 (released July 23, 2024). Below is a summary of the key issues that this update addresses when you install this KB. If there are new features, it lists them as well. The bold text within the brackets indicates the item or area of the change we are documenting.
  • [BitLocker (known issue)] A BitLocker recovery screen shows when you start up your device. This occurs after you install the July 9, 2024, update. This issue is more likely to occur if device encryption is on. Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Device encryption. To unlock your drive, Windows might ask you to enter the recovery key from your Microsoft account.
  • [Lock screen] This update addresses CVE-2024-38143. Because of this, the “Use my windows user account” check box is not available on the lock screen to connect to Wi-Fi.
  • [NetJoinLegacyAccountReuse] This update removes this registry key. For more information refer to KB5020276—Netjoin: Domain join hardening changes.
  • [Secure Boot Advanced Targeting (SBAT) and Linux Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI)] This update applies SBAT to systems that run Windows. This stops vulnerable Linux EFI (Shim bootloaders) from running. This SBAT update will not apply to systems that dual-boot Windows and Linux. After the SBAT update is applied, older Linux ISO images might not boot. If this occurs, work with your Linux vendor to get an updated ISO image.
If you installed earlier updates, only the new updates contained in this package will be downloaded and installed on your device.

For more information about security vulnerabilities, please refer to the Security Update Guide website and the August 2024 Security Updates.

Windows 11 servicing stack update (KB5041584) - 22621.4027 and 22631.4027​

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

Microsoft is not currently aware of any issues with this update.


How to get this update

Before you install 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

To install this update, use one of the following Windows and Microsoft release channels.

AvailableNext Step
Yes (Windows Update)None. This update will be downloaded and installed automatically from Windows Update and Microsoft Update.
Yes (MSU)To get the standalone package for this update, go to the Microsoft Update Catalog website.

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

For a list of the files that are provided in this update, download the file information for cumulative update 5041585.

For a list of the files that are provided in the servicing stack update, download the file information for the SSU (KB5041584) - versions 22621.4027 and 22631.4027.

I don't do V anything. I'm the only user.
When I shift + right click, it just opens power shell as Admin.
Same thing as if I left clicked it.
The second right click or Shift + Right Click gets different context menu, depending on which line I right click on. 😂😉
No difference from what I see on other Builds. I just tried on Canary 26257.5000 and it behaves the same way. 🤷‍♂️
Also, the context menu changes depending on which Application the pinned shortcut is for. 😉🤷‍♂️

WTF?! I just saw this in the event log!

My Western Digital Black SN850 1 TB SSD, possibly faulty! I wonder if it's another pandemic-QC-slump.....


Failtacular! (The third one, was the proper Windows update, after restoring image health with DISM and literally uninstalling and reinstalling the LCU!) (There wasn't a Windows Update Client/Agent error event reported for the CU and it acted like it updated properly, but CBS reported corruption on the first try and these two events were snuck in! I'm actually surprised that Windows Update didn't go into auto-rollback mode! Given the seriousness! It might as well have told me "Something didn't go as planned", or similar, but I didn't get that error message, or similar error message.)

Update as of 5 PM EST: The SSD SMART is OK.

I just reinstalled an older version from 12/13/2014 as it shows below.
Looks like it stopped spitting the extra page. 😂🤷‍♂️
I guess the problem is with the newer version of the Full_Solution.exe, but the problem only showed up with the latest update of windows 11.
Who knows what they have changed? I'll leave the older version which seems to work correctly. 👍🤷‍♂️

They probably "updated" driver which they do often unless you stop windows from automatic driver updates. I stopped that since W7 because that happens often.

No, I had the newer version already installed before this latest Windows update and never failed before.

This is the one I just reinstalled.
I had the newer one below for a long time without this problem, but it is not working correctly with this latest windows update. 😂😂😵‍💫🤷‍♂️

I don't know what you are showing there.
The files I downloaded for the HP-1020 were all from HP not from MS.

Since it worked with the old version, I wanted to try again with the latest version to see if I could reproduce the bug.
I downloaded the Software/driver again from HP (1st file on the list below) and reinstalled after uninstalling the old version.
Was a surprise to see that it is still working correctly. No extra page after each print. 🤞
The original problem was happening by just printing a Test Page, it was always spitting out an extra blank page.
Mysteries of Windows! I'm glad the problem disappeared; I hope it will last. 😂😵‍💫🤷‍♂️

I know this will be an unpopular point of view, but for me this update has been excellent. Up until it was installed, I was getting daily or even more lock ups followed by shutdown* on my laptop (not on the desktop), but I haven't had one since this update.
The cynical part of me has noticed that just before a major update, Windows appears to approach perfection, only for the many new 'improvements' in the exciting new update to introduce new instabilities which we all then take the next year to gradually resolve. It can't be that, can it?

*nothing of interest in event viewer.

    Dell says this system is not Windows 11 capable, but Microsoft seems happy with it.

It's a perpetual cycle of any software and OS that's "alive" and developing. It's so complicated that predicting failures is impossible until thousands try it. What happens to you may not happen to me and vice versa. Just got to learn to live with it.
