Microsoft is investigating a known issue causing OneDrive and OneDrive for Business crashes on Windows 10 systems where customers have installed updates released earlier this month. "After installing KB5018410 or later updates, OneDrive might unexpectedly close," the company explained in a Windows health dashboard update.
Microsoft has released the optional KB5018482 Preview cumulative update for Windows 10 20H2, Windows 10 21H1, and Windows 10 21H2. [...]
Microsoft appears to have woken up and realized it may have left certain Windows Server and Windows 10 systems exposed to exploitable drivers for years. This month it emerged the list of vulnerable drivers HVCI was supposed to be blocking was wildly out of date on machines running certain pre-Windows 11 operating systems, such as some Windows 10 and Windows Server builds.
The feature update can be installed via Windows Update by going to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and clicking the "Check for updates" button. Customers using devices running Windows 10 20H2 or newer will have a fast installation experience as the Windows 10 2022 will install like a monthly update.
Microsoft reminded customers that all editions of Windows 10, version 21H1, would reach the end of servicing on December 13, 2022. Microsoft said in an update to the Windows health dashboard that systems running Windows 10 21H1 will no longer receive security updates.
Microsoft has released the Windows 10 KB5018410 and KB5018419 cumulative updates for versions 21H2, version 21H1, version 20H2, and 1809 to fix security vulnerabilities and resolve twenty bugs and performance issues. This update is not available for Windows 10 1909 or Windows 10 2004.
Microsoft has released the optional KB5017380 Preview cumulative update for Windows 10 20H2, Windows 10 21H1, and Windows 10 21H2. This update includes numerous bug fixes and enhancements, including a new FIDO2 and Windows Hello authentication features. The KB5017380 cumulative update preview is part of Microsoft's September 2022 monthly "C" update, allowing admins to test upcoming fixes released in the October 2022 Patch Tuesday.
The Windows 10 KB5017308 cumulative update released this Patch Tuesday is reportedly causing Group Policy Object issues, according to admin reports. "Running Windows Update Standalone Installer 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."
Microsoft has reminded customers that all editions of Windows 10, version 21H1 will reach the end of service in three months, on December 13, 2022. The company said in a support document published on Wednesday that Windows 10 21H1 that systems running these Windows editions will no longer receive security updates.
