July Update for Windows 11 22H2
proposed a number of minor improvements in the form of Moment 3
In addition, Redmonds has managed to fix 130 vulnerabilities in its products as part of its monthly patch cycle. I remind you that the last service update for Windows 10 21H2 was released a month ago, so now only one is supported at the consumer level.
On July 11, Microsoft released the following updates for supported consumer editions of its operating systems:
- KB5028185 for Windows 11 Version 22H2 (Build 22621.1992)
- KB5028182 for Windows 11 Version 21H2 (Build 22000.2176)
- KB5028166 for Windows 10 Version 22H2 (Build 19045.3208).
Known update issues
Windows 11 Version 22H2
- System configuration using PPKG packages may fail. Households are not usually affected. Using Windows Autopilot should be fine.
Windows 11 Version 21H2
- Microsoft sees no difficulty.
Windows 10 Version 22H2
- On Windows installed from manually modified installation media, the old Edge has been removed, but it cannot be automatically replaced by the new browser. You can help prevent this by integrating the March 29, 2021 or later servicing stack update before integrating the Windows Cumulative Servicing Update to media.
