Windows Secure Boot certificate expiration

Important:
Secure Boot certificates used by most Windows devices are set to expire starting in June 2026. This might affect the ability of certain personal and business devices to boot securely if not updated in time. To avoid disruption, we recommend reviewing the guidance and taking action to update certificates in advance. For details and preparation steps, see Windows Secure Boot certificate expiration and CA updates.

To learn more about Windows update terminology, see types of Windows updates and monthly quality update types. For an overview, see the update history page for Windows 11, version 24H2.

Stay informed! Follow @WindowsUpdate for the latest updates from the Windows release health dashboard.

Windows Updates do not include updates for Microsoft Store apps.
If you're an enterprise user, see Microsoft Store apps - Configuration Manager.
If you're an consumer user, see Get updates for apps and games in Microsoft Store.

Windows 11 servicing stack update (KB5065381)- 26100.4933​

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. To learn more about SSUs, see Simplifying on-premises deployment of servicing stack updates.

Known issues in this update

1 Error events are logged for CertificateServicesClient

Symptoms

After installing the July 2025 Windows non-security preview update (KB5062600) or a later update, including the August 2025 Windows security update, you might see the following error in Event Viewer related to CertificateServicesClient (CertEnroll):

The "Microsoft Pluton Cryptographic Provider" provider was not loaded because initialization failed.

This event appears with Error ID 57 and is logged every time the device restarts. It does not indicate a problem with any active Windows component. The event is related to a feature that is currently in development.

There is no impact to Windows functionality, and no action is required.

Workaround

This issue is addressed in KB5064081.

2 Install error with error code 0x80240069

Symptoms

The August 2025 security update (KB5063878) might fail to install with error code 0x80240069 when deployed through Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). WSUS enables servers with the WSUS role to defer, selectively approve, and schedule updates for specific devices or groups across an organization.

This issue is unlikely to affect home users, as WSUS is intended for use in business and enterprise environments.

Workaround

The issue affecting the Windows Update service for devices managed through Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) has been resolved. If you experienced this problem, refresh, and re-sync with WSUS to install this update.

A Group Policy had previously been released using Known Issue Rollback (KIR) to work around this issue. If you installed the special Group Policy, you could find it in Group Policy Management Editor under: Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows 11 24H2 and Windows Server 2025 KB5063878 250814_00551 Known Issue Rollback

Organizations no longer need to install and configure this Group Policy to address this issue.

3 Network Device Interface streaming performance issue

Symptoms

After installing the August 2025 Windows security update (KB5063878), you might experience delays or uneven audio and video performance when using Network Device Interface (NDI) to stream or transfer feeds between PCs.

This issue affects streaming apps such as OBS Studio (Open Broadcaster Software) and NDI Tools, especially when Display Capture is enabled on the source PC. The problem can even occur under low-bandwidth conditions.

Workaround

This issue is addressed in KB5065426.

4 Unexpected User Account Control (UAC) prompt when doing MSI repair operations

Symptoms

A security improvement was included in the August 2025 Windows security update and later updates to enforce the requirement that User Account Control (UAC) prompt for administrator credentials when performing Windows Installer (MSI) repair and related operations. This improvement addressed security vulnerability CVE-2025-50173.

After installing the update, standard users might see a User Account Control (UAC) prompt in several scenarios.
  • Running MSI repair commands (such as msiexec /fu).
  • Opening Autodesk apps, including some versions of AutoCAD, Civil 3D and Inventor CAM, or when installing an MSI file after a user signs into the app for the first time.
  • Installing apps that configure per user.
  • Running Windows Installer during Active Setup.
  • Deploying packages through Manager Configuration Manager (ConfigMgr) that rely on user-specific "advertising" configurations.
  • Enabling Secure Desktop.
If a non-admin user runs an app that initiates an MSI repair operation without displaying UI, it will fail with an error message. For example, installing and running Office Professional Plus 2010 as a standard user will fail with Error 1730 during the configuration process.

Workaround

This issue is addressed in KB5065426.

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
Included
This update downloads and installs automatically from Windows Update and Microsoft Update.
Yes 1Before 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 require installation in a specific order.

Install this update

Method 1: Install all MSU files together


Download all MSU files for KB5063878 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-KB5063878-x64.msu

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

Add-WindowsPackage -Online -PackagePath "c:\packages\Windows11.0-KB5063878-x64.msu"

Or use Windows Update Standalone Installer to install the target update.

Updating Windows Installation media

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

Note: When downloading other Dynamic Update packages, ensure they match the same month as this KB. If the SafeOS Dynamic Update or Setup Dynamic Update is not available for the same month as this KB, use the most recently published version of each.

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-KB5063878-x64.msu

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

Add-WindowsPackage -Path "c:\offline" -PackagePath "Windows11.0-KB5063878-x64.msu" -PreventPending

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-kb5063878-x64_199ed7806a74fe78e3b0ef4f2073760000f71972.msu
1 This latest cumulative update includes updates for AI components. Even though the AI component updates are included in the update, the AI components are only applicable to Windows Copilot+ PCs and will not install on Windows PC or Windows Server.

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 provided in this update, download the file information for cumulative update 5063878.

For a list of the files provided in the servicing stack update, download the file information for the SSU (KB5065381) - version 26100.4933.

Since the SSD failure talk is found only on that website and has dubious reliability, I would chalk it up to pure Click Bait.
I'm noticing an alarming amount of click bait this year alone! Same with what I could consider rage bait! :ffs:

    Other Info
    From Dell: 512GB NVME Solid State Drive accelerated by 32GB Intel Optane Memory are the fastest as compared to NAND SSDs. Intel Optane H10 with SSD offers speedy storage and accelerates opening your programs.
That's what I noticed, and the lack of real tests besides copiying Cyberpunk2077 files over and over. My problem is trust, and Microsoft has had SSD failures before with this version of Windows...
I'll keep this manual until 25H2 appears... I hope that version fixes what is still buggy here...
I did some informal testing here on 24H4 build 26100.5061.

I copied two large files, a 350GB and 400GB Acronis TI backup files from one 2TB SATA SSD to another 2TB SATA SSD. I did a binary compare after the copy, and both files still match.

I then copied them back to the original drive into a new folder and did another binary compare, still match just fine. I don't doubt that someone could have experienced issues with their disks, and maybe it's even associated with this update. OTOH, it appears it's not a universal issue, at least IMO.

As you can see, I have the KB5063878 update installed, and even a couple of updates after it.

The Phison controller is just more of a problem, the article made it clear that other controllers also exhibited the issue.

I was using a Crucial BX500 and a TEAMGROUP T2532TB for these tests. They're the two drives I use for backup that are currently in my system.

I have some bad news for you - 24H2 is equal to 25H2. Remember, 25H2 will be nothing more than an enablement package. In other words, if you are running 24H2 then you effectively already running 25H2 minus the enablement of the 25H2 bits and of course not in final released form yet.
Sadge...

Welp... the sad state of Windows... I still keep some hope they at least fix the login fade in bug... or anything... if at all...

I'm dumb I know lol

I did some informal testing here on 24H4 build 26100.5061.

I copied two large files, a 350GB and 400GB Acronis TI backup files from one 2TB SATA SSD to another 2TB SATA SSD. I did a binary compare after the copy, and both files still match.

I then copied them back to the original drive into a new folder and did another binary compare, still match just fine. I don't doubt that someone could have experienced issues with their disks, and maybe it's even associated with this update. OTOH, it appears it's not a universal issue, at least IMO.

As you can see, I have the KB5063878 update installed, and even a couple of updates after it.

It's a relief to see this... Thanks for your tests.
Well, I'll still wait for 25H2... I'm not risking this system. I need to work lol

I have four Win11 Pro systems here, all are equipped with SSD drives of various types and brands. I'm not uninstalling anything without a lot more evidence, so far I've seen nothing to convince me that I have a problem.

I just ran sfc /scannow for the first time in my 11 days old Windows 11. Found nothing. Most of the time I done one of those in Windows 10, it would find something, and the system would fix it. This is another plus for me for W11 over W10. I also found doing the sfc /scannow in W11 very fast, it was done in about a minute. And Yes, I am giving 24H2 a big thumb up. (y)

What is "the login fade in bug"?
If you have a high refresh rate monitor, and you have it at anything other than 60hz, Windows login doesn't fade in from black as it usually does, instead takes a sec, and appears from nowhere, then it fades into desktop. It started happening to me since 24H2 a couple of weeks ago. My mother's PC also does this, with similar specs to mine. Only my laptop doesn't do it, because it's a 60hz common panel.

I just ran sfc /scannow for the first time in my 11 days old Windows 11. Found nothing. Most of the time I done one of those in Windows 10, it would find something, and the system would fix it. This is another plus for me for W11 over W10. I also found doing the sfc /scannow in W11 very fast, it was done in about a minute. And Yes, I am giving 24H2 a big thumb up. (y)

Hi Bo I had trouble with Windows 10 running an SSD on old hardware and constant SFC errors.
I found it was the default Chipset Drivers that were installed when Windows 10 was installed.
The motherboard was old and Intel did not support the Chipset in Windows 10.
I found the latest Windows 8 Chipset drivers and Installed them and the SFC errors stopped happening.
Cheers EB2XR6.

Hi EB2XR6. My W10 is not SSD but thanks for the info. It is a Dell with HDD. :-)

Are you guys checking for any errors in event log after installing the update? Any event ID/source in particular?
Except these 3 errors regarding pluton (Microsoft will fix it soon), I have another one of the following at every PC's reboot (it is randow which will appear every time):

The server {6FA05A24-B1DF-4155-909E-7B424F2D2BB5} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout. (widgets platform runtime)
The server {5CA9C941-68D9-5462-B0F5-C850C0361A39} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout (google update internal service)
The server {740FE937-01F7-4482-AA62-C83F0AD3D6D0} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout. (widgets platform runtime) The server {3E11DF0F-42EB-4747-9A35-802D98B5BCF0} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout. (widgets platform runtime)

These 4 errors 100% appeared after the latest Google and web experience pack updates.
Dcom Google error solved after setting its service to manual..
As for the Widgets Platform Runtime, uninstall and reinstall it didn't help.. I have toggled off the enable option to taskbar settings and unchecked every option inside the app (hover, start feed and notifications). The only services that always run are widgetsservice.exe and widgetsboard.exe...
And the only real fix to these widgets dcom errors is to uninstall the web experience pack... However it is not recommended to do so, that's why I reinstalled it back..
I know, I have to ignore it as it is clearly a new bug created by Microsoft store new update...
