Cumulative updates KB5018418 and KB5018427 are out for Windows 11 users. Here are the direct links to download offline installers.
Microsoft has just released KB5018418 and KB5018427 cumulative security updates for Windows 11 v22H1 and v22H2 users, respectively. Because this is a security update, no general fixes, improvements, or new features are included. However, if you haven’t already installed earlier cumulative updates, this update may install them.
It is suggested that you install the security update as soon as possible to safeguard your system from vulnerabilities and other security flaws.
As always, you may download and install the cumulative update from the Settings app. Open the Settings app, navigate to the “Windows Update” page, and click the “Check for updates” button. Windows 11 should check for and install any available updates.
I’m providing the offline installer download links so you can install them manually on an offline machine or if Windows Update fails.
