Microsoft is working to fix an issue causing a recently released Windows 10 21H1 build to fail to install for customers enrolled in the Windows Insider program.
"Some Windows Insiders may experience an 0x800f081f error when attempting to install 21H1 Build 19043.906," Microsoft explained in an update added to the original KB5000842 announcement.
"We are aware of the issue and planning to resolve the issue in a new Cumulative Update for 21H1," the company added.
906 were first reported after the release of multiple out-of-band Windows 10 cumulative updates that addressed a bug triggering blue screen crashes when printing.
Despite claiming to fix the crash issues, multiple BleepingComputer readers reported still experiencing blue screen crashes and some of the graphical content printing problems this 21H1 addresses.
Microsoft confirmed the known issue causing Windows 10 BSOD crashes two days after releasing the originating updates behind the printing bugs after BleepingComputer reported a wave of incoming user complaints of system crashes.
