Windows Secure Boot certificate expiration
Important: Secure Boot certificates used by most Windows devices were set to expire starting in June 2026. Microsoft has been updating these certificates on PCs and non-managed business devices for the past months. Devices that haven’t received the newer certificates will continue to start, and standard Windows updates will continue to install. We will continue to install the newer certificates via Windows updates in the coming months.

End of updates
Windows 11, version 24H2 Home and Pro editions will reach end of updates on October 13, 2026. Devices running these editions will no longer receive fixes for known issues, time zone updates, technical support, or monthly security and preview updates containing protections from the latest security threats. Enterprise and Education editions remain supported until October 12, 2027.

To stay protected and up to date, we recommend you upgrade to the latest version of Windows 11.

• July 2026 Security Updates

The following summary outlines key quality improvements addressed by this update. The bold text within the brackets indicates the item or area of the change.

• [Secure Boot] This update includes additional high confidence device targeting data, increasing coverage of devices eligible to automatically receive new Secure Boot certificates. Certificate deployment via Windows updates continues
• [Apps (Known issue)] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that affects certain third-party apps that use OLE Automation to interact with Microsoft Office. After installing the June 2026 security update (KB5094126), these apps might fail to launch Office or open documents.
• [Input] This update changes hotkey unregister and cleanup behavior. In rare cases, some built-in Windows experiences that rely on previous hotkey lifecycle behavior might temporarily stop responding to certain keyboard shortcuts. This issue can typically be resolved by restarting the app affected. If the issue is not resolved, report it through the Feedback Hub.
• [Networking] This update introduces a security hardening change that enforces TDI transport registration requirements. As a result, applications that use sockets over unregistered third-party TDI transports might stop working after installing this update. Registered TDI transports are not affected. For more information, see Third-party TDI transports might stop working after installing Windows security updates released on or after July 14, 2026.
• [Recycle Bin (known issue)] Fixed: This update addresses additional scenarios where the confirmation dialog might display an internal Recycle Bin file name instead of the original file name when permanently deleting a file. This issue might occur after installing the June 2026 security update (KB5094126)
• [Security] This update upgrades the curl tool in Windows to version 8.21.0 and includes security improvements that help protect your device.
• [Remote Desktop (RDP) Security] Support for SHA-2 certificate thumbprints has been added for trusted RDP publishers, with SHA-1 support retained only for backward compatibility and planned for future removal. New guidance is available for managing RDP file security through Group to help organizations reduce phishing risks by controlling which .rdp files users can open. We recommend IT administrators migrate to SHA-256 thumbprints or a stronger algorithm as soon as possible to avoid disruption.

If you've already installed previous updates, your device will download and install only the new updates included in this package.
