Microsoft has released out-of-band updates on Thursday evening to address a newly acknowledged issue impacting Microsoft Store apps.

This known issue affects devices running Windows 10 where users have installed the KB5011831 optional preview cumulative update or other updates released since April 25th. "After installing KB5011831 or later updates, you might receive an error code: 0xC002001B when attempting to install from the Microsoft Store," Microsoft explained on the Windows health dashboard.

This emergency OOB Windows update has to be installed manually after downloading from the Microsoft Update Catalog and cannot be installed automatically via Windows Update.

Admins can import the update into Windows Server Update Services and Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager.

Yesterday, Microsoft also released emergency updates to address Active Directory authentication issues for some Windows services triggered by the May 2022 Patch Tuesday Windows Updates installed on domain controllers.

In November 2021, Microsoft released another series of out-of-band updates to fix an issue causing Windows Server authentication failures related to Kerberos delegation scenarios impacting domain controllers.
