Starting November 12, 2024, Windows 10 users might experience issues while trying to update or uninstall packaged apps. Affected Windows 10 devices have received the WinAppSDK 1.6.2 package (published on November 12, 2024). When users download an app that relies on WinAppSDK, the necessary components of the SDK are automatically downloaded and installed along with the app.
Resulting from this issue, you might observe that Microsoft Store displays the error message, ‘Something happened on our end’ in the ‘Downloads’ panel.
If you are an IT administrator trying to manage packaged apps through PowerShell using ‘Get-AppxPackage’ command you might observe the error ‘Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CFA’, ‘Please contact your software vendor. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80073CFA’) in PowerShell.
You will also notice that apps like Microsoft Teams and other 3rd party apps are impacted if you choose to uninstall and re-install the apps as part of the update process.
Please note, this issue is not caused by a Windows security or preview monthly update.
Resolution: This issue was resolved by Windows updates released November 21, 2024 (KB5046714), and later. We recommend you install the latest update for your device as it contains important improvements and issue resolutions, including this one.

A small subset of Azure Virtual Desktop customers using multi-session hosts (AVD) who have installed Windows Updates released between KB5040525 on July 23, 2024, and KB5044273 released October 8, 2024, may experience the following issues:
- An extended 10-to-30-minute-long hang at a black screen following user logon.
- Office applications including Outlook and Teams experience single sign-on (SSO) failures, preventing users from connecting or synchronizing data.
This issue is caused by a deadlock in the interactions between the Azure Active Directory(AAD) broker and the underlying AppX deployment service(AppxSvc) and Background tasks infrastructure service.You are more likely to experience this issue if you are using FSLogix user profile containers on multi-session environments. FSLogix is a Microsoft tool that helps manage and speed up user profiles on computers, especially in virtual environments like remote desktops.
Windows 10 Education edition users and home users of Windows using Home or Pro editions are unlikely to face this issue as Azure Virtual Desktop is more commonly used in enterprise environments.
Resolution:
This issue is resolved by installing the Windows updates released October 22, 2024 (KB5045594) or later updates and by applying one of the options mentioned in the Resolution section in KB5048864. Note that you need to perform both actions to resolve the issue.

After installing the September 2024 preview update (KB5043131), released September 24, 2024 or later, you might observe that apps such as Quick Assist, Microsoft Teams, Windows Narrator, etc might fail to start if you are a non-admin user. You might experience this issue on any app that sets UIAccess=true while trying to run the app as a non-admin user. The uiAccess=true attribute in an application's manifest file is used to request that the application be granted higher privileges. Apps using this attribute launch from a secure path, such as :
- %ProgramFiles% (including subdirectories)
- %ProgramFiles(x86)% (including subdirectories for 64-bit versions of Windows)
- %systemroot%\system32
- %systemroot%\syswow64 (for 64-bit versions of Windows)
If you have the Procmon monitoring tool installed in your device, you will observe that the application runs with the wrong integrity level, Integrity:Low instead of the expected Integrity:Medium. You are less likely to encounter this issue if you are running the application as an administrator.
Resolution:
This issue was resolved by Windows updates released November 12, 2024 (KB5046613), and later. We recommend you install the latest security update for your device as it contains important improvements and issue resolutions, including this one.

Following installation of the Windows update released April 23, 2024 (KB5036979)and updates released after that, certain apps might display an "Open With" dialog box asking, "How do you want to open this file?". You might experience this issue when you place your mouse on an app icon shown in your Taskbar or Start menu and right-click on the app to execute a task in that app. Resulting from this, you might see the “Open With” dialog box instead of the execution of the selected task.
This issue was reported by Teams, new Outlook for Windows, and Snip & Sketch users. This issue can also affect other applications attempting to right-click on its icon to find a context menu with a list of tasks.
Workaround: Although the "Open With" dialog prevents the use of the tasks available from the right-click context menu, it's likely that those same operations can be performed by making the application interface visible, and navigating the application interface and menus.
Resolution: This issue was resolved in updates released June 25, 2024 (KB5039299) and later. We recommend you install the latest security update for your device. It contains important improvements and issue resolutions, including this one.

After installing the February 2024 Windows security update (KB5034203), released February 13, 2024, or later updates, some Windows devices which use the DHCP Option 235 for discovery of Microsoft Connected Cache (MCC) nodes in their network might be unable to use the MCC nodes. Instead, these Windows devices will download updates and apps from the public internet and IT administrators would see increased download traffic on their internet routes.
Home users of Windows are unlikely to experience this issue, as Microsoft Connected Cache configured via DHCP Option 235 is more commonly used in enterprise environments.
Workaround:
- Option1: Configure Microsoft Connected Cache endpoint in DOCacheHost policy as indicated in Cache hostname. Additionally, DOCacheHostSource has to be set to 1 or removed as indicated in Cache hostname source. Note that by default, the DOCacheHost and DOCacheHostSource policies have no value.
- Option2: This issue can also be mitigated using Group Policies available through our support channel. Organizations can request help through Support for business.

Updates to Edge browser version 123.0.2420.65, released on March 28, 2024, and later, might incorrectly install a new package (MSIX) called ‘Microsoft chat provider for Copilot in Windows’ on Windows devices. Resulting from this, the Microsoft Copilot app might appear in the Installed apps in Settings menu.
It is important to note that the Microsoft chat provider for Copilot in Windows does not execute any code or process, and does not acquire, analyze, or transmit device or environment data in any capacity.
This package was intended to prepare some Windows devices for future Windows Copilot enablement and was not intended for all devices. Although the component installed as part of this issue can cause the Microsoft Copilot app to be shown as part of the Installed apps, this component does not fully install or enable Microsoft Copilot.
Note: Edge browser version 124.0.2478.51, released on April 18, 2024, contains a change by which the chat provider for Copilot in Windows will not continue to be installed on every device.
Resolution: This issue is now resolved with Edge browser updates released on April 26, 2024, and June 13, 2024. Edge version 124.0.2478.67 was released on April 26 and removed the package ‘Microsoft chat provider for Copilot in Windows’ from all servers affected by this issue. Edge version 126.0.2592.56 was released on June 13, 2024, and removed the same package from all Windows client versions affected by this issue. The ‘Microsoft Copilot’ entry will not show in the Installed apps list in the Settings menu once the Edge browser is updated.

Devices attempting to install the January 2024 Windows Recovery Environment update (KB5034441) might display an error related to the size of the Recovery Environment's partition. The Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) is used to repair or recover from issues affecting Windows.
Resulting from this error, the following message might be displayed.
- "0x80070643 - ERROR_INSTALL_FAILURE"
Important: If your Windows device does not have a recovery environment configured, you do not need this update (KB5034441). In this case, the error can be ignored.
To determine whether your device has a recovery environment configured, inspect the WinRE status by following these steps:
- Open a Command Prompt window (cmd) as admin.
- To check the WinRE status, run reagentc /info. If the WinRE is configured, a "Windows RE status" field will appear in the output, with value "Enabled". If WinRE is not configured, this field will have the value "Disabled".
Resolution: Automatic resolution of this issue won't be available in a future Windows update. Manual steps are necessary to complete the installation of this update on devices which are experiencing this error.
The WinRE partition requires 250 megabytes of free space. Devices which do not have sufficient free space will need to increase the size of the partition via manual action. For guidance on making this change, review the following resources:
- A code script can be used to extend the partition size. A sample script has been provided in the documentation for adding an update package to WinRE. See Extend the Windows RE Partition.
- Guidance to manually change the WinRE partition size can additionally be found in KB5028997: Instructions to manually resize your partition to install the WinRE update.
Completion of these manual steps will allow the installation of this update to succeed.

Some issues related to printer configurations are being observed on Windows devices. Microsoft is investigating this issue and coordinating with partners on a solution.
Symptoms can include the following:
- Some Windows devices are installing the HP Smart app.
- Printers may show LaserJet M101-M106 model information regardless of their manufacturer. Printer icons might also be changed.
- Double clicking on a printer displays the on-screen error "No tasks are available for this page".
Note: Our investigations indicate that this issue is not caused by an HP update. In most cases, it should be possible to use the printer as expected, including queueing printing jobs, as well as other features such as copy, scan, or fax. Printers on the device will continue to use the expected drivers for printer operations. However, this issue might affect associations with other manufacturer-supplied printer apps used to extend basic printer capabilities. If this is the case, some or all of those extended functions might not work.
Resolution: You can resolve this issue by downloading and executing one of the files listed in the article KB5034510 Printer Metadata Remediation Tool – December 2023. In addition to this tool, a critical troubleshooter is being gradually rolled out to all affected Home and non-managed business devices. Critical troubleshooting happens automatically in the background and won’t get in the way of using your device. To learn more about critical and recommended troubleshooters, see Keep your device running smoothly with recommended troubleshooting.

Windows devices using more than one monitor might experience issues with desktop icons moving unexpectedly between monitors or other icon alignment issues when attempting to use Copilot in Windows (in preview).
To prevent users from encountering this issue, Copilot in Windows might not be available on devices that have been used or are currently being used in a multimonitor configuration. You might also not be able to update to Windows 11, version 23H2 as we have applied a compatibility hold on devices encountering this issue.
If your organization is using Windows Update for Business reports, the safeguard ID is 47615939.
Resolution: We are gradually rolling out a new Copilot experience for devices with Windows updates released June 25, 2024 () or later. This new experience will resolve this issue for Windows 10, version 22H2. This update () was released on June 25, 2024, and you can expect to receive the new Copilot experience between now and the coming months.
Safeguard Resolution: This issue was resolved on the service-side for Windows 11, version 23H2 and Windows 11, version 22H2 on devices with updates released January 9, 2024 or later. Non-managed consumer Windows devices with no other compatibility hold should now have Copilot for Windows available. The safeguard hold has been removed as of February 7, 2024. Eligible Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices with no other safeguards should now be able to upgrade to Windows 11, version 23H2. Please note, it can take up to 48 hours before the update to Windows 11, version 23H2 is offered. Restarting your device might help it offer faster. Note: Managed devices in your environment that have been used or are currently being used in a multimonitor configuration will not yet have Copilot for Windows available.

Devices with locale set to Croatia might not utilize the expected currency
| Status | Originating update | History |

The correct default currency might not display or be used in Windows devices which have locale set to Croatia. This can affect applications which retrieve the device's currency for purchases or other transactions.
Earlier this year, Croatia joined the Eurozone, changing its currency from the Kuna to Euro. Windows Locale data for Croatia will be updated for this change in the short term.
Workaround: Changing the currency in Windows can help. This can be accomplished via the Windows Control Panel.
- Open the "Windows Region" settings. This can be done in one of the following ways:
- Open "Control Panel" from the start menu and select "Change date, time, or number formats" under "Clock and Region"
- On your keyboard, press and hold the Windows key, then press the letter R. This will open the "Run" window. Type INTL.CPL into the Open field,
- In the Region settings, choose one of the 2 locales for Croatia:
- Croatian (Bosnia & Herzegovina)
- Croatian (Croatia)
- In this same window, click the "Additional settings" button. Once there, click the "Currency" tab.
- Change the currency symbol from "KN" to Euro, "€"
Additional information can be seen here: Currency formatting - Globalization | Microsoft Learn.
Manually changing currency might also be an option in some applications. Although this won't change the device’s default currency, this could allow usage of the application with the desired currency preference. Some applications might not allow this manual change. Please view the settings and documentation for your applications.
