For more information about the various types of Windows updates, such as critical, security, driver, service packs, and so on, please see the following article.

Highlights

  • Updates an issue that might prevent ActiveX content from loading.

  • Updates an issue that prevents some applications from printing to network printers.

Improvements and fixes

This non-security update includes quality improvements. Key changes include:

  • Addresses an issue that might prevent ActiveX content from loading.

  • Addresses an issue that might cause Microsoft browsers to bypass proxy servers.

  • Addresses an issue that generates an “unknown username or bad password” error when attempting to sign in. This occurs in an environment that has a Windows Server 2003 domain controller (DC) and a Windows Server 2016 or later DC.

  • Provides live response capability that gives Security Operations (SecOps) immediate access to compromised machines using the Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) console (Microsoft Defender Security Center).

  • Improves the accuracy of detection in Microsoft Defender ATP Threat & Vulnerability Management.

  • Addresses an issue that might cause Direct Access servers to use a large amount of non-paged pool memory (pooltag: NDnd).

  • Addresses an issue in which the WinHTTP AutoProxy service does not comply with the value set for the maximum Time To Live (TTL) on the Proxy Auto-Configuration (PAC) file. This prevents the cached file from updating dynamically.

  • Addresses an issue that prevents some applications from printing to network printers.

  • Addresses an issue with certificate validation that causes Internet Explorer mode in Microsoft Edge to fail.

If you installed earlier updates, only the new fixes contained in this package will be downloaded and installed on your device.

Known issues in this update

Symptom

Workaround

Certain operations, such as rename, that you perform on files or folders that are on a Cluster Shared Volume (CSV) may fail with the error, “STATUS_BAD_IMPERSONATION_LEVEL (0xC00000A5)”. This occurs when you perform the operation on a CSV owner node from a process that doesn’t have administrator privilege.

After investigation, we have found that this issue does not affect this version of Windows.

Devices using a manual or auto-configured proxy, especially with a virtual private network (VPN), might show limited or no internet connection status in the Network Connectivity Status Indicator (NCSI) in the notification area. This might happen when connected to or disconnected from a VPN or after changing the state between the two. Devices with this issue might also have issues reaching the internet using applications that use WinHTTP or WinInet. Examples of apps that might be affected on devices in this state include, but are not limited to, Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Office 365, Microsoft Outlook, Internet Explorer 11, and some versions of Microsoft Edge.

This issue is resolved in KB4554342.
