Key notes
Still haven’t upgraded to the latest Microsoft-designed operating system? Not really a problem, considering that Windows 10 will still be supported until 2025, and probably some time after as well.
Now, Insiders that use Windows 10 21H2 have just received a brand new cumulative update today, full of further attempts at fixes for apps closing unexpectedly when dependent on d3d9.dll with certain graphics cards.
This latest software also contains unrelated fixes that prevented Microsoft Excel and Outlook apps from opening.
KB5014023 brings a long list of fixes
The new build 19044.1739 (21H2),which isKB5014023, tests if certain non-security fixes can make it through to the next Patch Tuesday, it is available now through the Release Preview Channel.
Among everything else, Microsoft also introduced a new sorting version 6.4.3, which addresses the sorting issue that affects Japanese half-width katakana.
Fixes
This is pretty much what is coming with this new cumulative update, just so that you have the general idea on what to expect from the Redmond tech giant.
Thankfully, there are no known issues, and as previously pointed out, no new features either. Furthermore, this is an optional C update which is generally released in the third or fourth week of the month and is designed to test new bug fixes and improvements for other non-security issues.
Know that these C updates are optional, and Windows Update won’t automatically install them on your PC, when offered outside of Windows Insider channels.
