Windows 11 servicing stack update (KB5049685)- 26100.2592​

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 usersWe’re aware of an issue where players on Arm devices are unable to download and play Roblox via the Microsoft Store on Windows.Players on Arm devices can play Roblox by downloading the title directly from www.Roblox.com.
All usersFollowing the installation of the October 2024 security update, some customers report that the OpenSSH (Open Secure Shell) service fails to start, preventing SSH connections. The service fails with no detailed logging, and manual intervention is required to run the sshd.exe process.

This issue is affecting both enterprise, IOT, and education customers, with a limited number of devices impacted. Microsoft is investigating whether consumer customers using Home or Pro editions of Windows are affected.
Customers can temporarily resolve the issue by updating permissions (ACLs) on the affected directories. Follow these steps:
  1. Open PowerShell as an Administrator.
  2. Update the permissions for C:\ProgramData\ssh and C:\ProgramData\ssh\logs to allow full control for SYSTEM and the Administrators group, while allowing read access for Authenticated Users. You can restrict read access to specific users or groups by modifying the permissions string if needed.

    Use the following commands to update the permissions:

    $directoryPath = "C:\ProgramData\ssh" $acl = Get-Acl -Path $directoryPath $sddlString = "O:BAD:PAI(A;OICI;FA;;;SY)(A;OICI;FA;;;BA)(A;OICI;0x1200a9;;;AU)" $securityDescriptor = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.RawSecurityDescriptor $sddlString $acl.SetSecurityDescriptorSddlForm($securityDescriptor.GetSddlForm("All")) Set-Acl -Path $directoryPath -AclObject $acl
  3. Repeat the above steps for C:\ProgramData\ssh\logs.

Microsoft is actively investigating the issue and will provide a resolution in an upcoming Windows update. Further communications will be provided when a resolution or additional workarounds are available.

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)Before you install this update

To get the standalone package(s) for this update, go to the Microsoft Update Catalog website. This KB contains one or more MSU files that must be installed in order.


Install this update

Method 1: Install all MSU files together

Download all MSU files for KB5048667 from Microsoft Update Catalog and place them in the same folder (for example, C:/Packages). Use Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM.exe) to install the target update. DISM will use the folder specified in PackagePath to discover and install one or more prerequisite MSU files as needed.


Updating Windows PC
To apply this update to a running Windows PC, run the following command from an elevated Command Prompt:


DISM /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:c:\packages\Windows11.0-KB

Or, run the following command from an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt:
Add-WindowsPackage -Online -PackagePath "c:\packages\Windows11.0-KB

Updating Windows Installation media
To apply this update to Windows Installation media, see Update Windows installation media with Dynamic Update.


To add this update to a mounted image, run the following command from an elevated Command Prompt:

DISM /Image:mountdir /Add-Package /PackagePath:Windows11.0-KB

Or, run the following command from an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt:

Add-WindowsPackage -Path "c:\offline" -PackagePath "Windows11.0-KB

Method 2: Install each MSU file individually, in order

Download and install each MSU file individually either using DISM or Windows Update Standalone Installer in the following order:
  1. windows11.0-kb5043080-x64_953449672073f8fb99badb4cc6d5d7849b9c83e8.msu
  2. windows11.0-kb5048667-x64_d4ad0ca69de9a02bc356757581e0e0d6960c9f93.msu

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

Interesting you do not need it!
I do!
My network has 10 computers(well... Technically 7 because 3 is VM), plus NAS, network printers(3) phones and tablet.


Well, set it to Manual.
That way, if it's needed, it will turn on.

In Services... that's what Manual is for.

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 15 years?
I never access sound settings from there as I use audio switcher, however, I did check and just as you point out there's a lot of room now.
I really like that audio switcher. Before I downloaded that I could't get audio out of my external speakers at all. I downloaded that and they just started working. I now have a monitor with built in speakers.

I tried to stop this update but no cigar, it got past me. So far Windows is working okay, even maybe faster. After reading the horror stories herein I was afraid to let it load. Am I to assume MS fixed their work?
I read the horror stories too. I just do the updates. I always make my daily Macrium Reflect images and I have OneDrive. I can always recover from anything.

So far 24H2 26100.2605 is solid here.

Either one is probably fine.
Since Windows 10... I just set the ones I'm pretty sure I don't need to Manual.
For "some" Services... Manual is not a good choice.
Some Services have one or more dependencies.
If you set the wrong Service to Manual, and it doesn't turn ON, then a "dependent" Service may be unable to turn ON.

If I'm 100% sure I don't need it... I set it to Disabled.

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 15 years?
I read the horror stories too. I just do the updates. I always make my daily Macrium Reflect images and I have OneDrive. I can always recover from anything.

So far 24H2 26100.2605 is solid here.
Yes, I do the same making a Macrium backup of my drive before the grand MS update adventure. However, I have found that the Win-11 dudes and dudettes are more learned that he Win-10 whizz kids, so things seem to work some better. Maybe it is wishful thinking on my part, but maybe there are two groups of software engineers in their world.

From minor testing it appears all my software is working as designed. Miracles do occur occasionally.

I can always connect with putty in ssh with my router, even though I have always had this "problem". I didn't realize it was disabled, but I can access the router without any problems.What do I do? Do I keep it disabled?

I left it disabled. I have multiple PCs on my home network an apparently, they don't need this service to communicate with each other.
I'll wait for MS to fix this if it is a problem. 🤷‍♂️

Same on Build 26120.2702, the service is disabled.

And on 23H2, Beta build 22635.4655. 😂🤷‍♂️

Hey,

not sure why, but this service is disabled for me.

Just curious, my friend is running 23H2 and it is also disabled for him.

Do I really need it? Since it is set to disabled as default.

That is the same I just showed above for 23H2.
Hopefully MS will sort it out. 🤷‍♂️

Okay! I left it disabled. Strange things are happening in these last bars of 2024 for Microsoft. This new 24H2 was born weird and I think it will end in the same way.

Welcome to Eleven Forum.

No, not in my en-gb install, at least. Looks like it may be a language localisation issue.

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to mechanical deterioration this PC has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.

    I've now clean installed 25H2 and used Garlin's scripts to update Secure Boot to CA 2023 and revoke the PCA 2011 certificates. It's new role is to test secure boot issues.

I don't understand which issue you are referring to, could you clarify?
Look at the width of @lucasmaceds cut/copy/rename/etc. It's not as wide as the rest, plus it doesn't have rounded corners..
