KB5026361 Has Improvements for Windows 10 (Direct Download Link)

The new security update KB5026361 is now live for Windows 10 users running v20H2, v21H2, and v22H2. This is a mandatory update with several fixes and improvements to Windows 10.

This update fixes an issue with the Local Administrator Password Solution (LAPS) and prevents Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) from becoming unresponsive. Additionally, the KB5026361 update also addresses various other issues, including printing problems for mobile device management (MDM) customers, signing into Windows Hello for Business using a PIN, keyboard layout resetting, and the Microsoft Edge WebView2 causing infinite loops during process restarts.

The update also addresses several bugs and usability issues. For instance, the “News and interests” feature, which provides personalized news and weather information, had encountered functionality problems. The KB5026361 fixes that issue. Others include but are not limited to Unified Write Filter (UWF), Resilient File System (ReFS), MySQL commands on Windows Xenon containers, SMB Direct on systems with multi-byte character sets, and apps using DirectX on older Intel graphics drivers.

Of course, being a security update, KB5026361 includes fixes for several minor security fixes.

As always, the update will be installed automatically on all supported Windows 10 systems. If you want, you can install it from the Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update page or use the link below to download KB5026361 offline installer.
