14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft has recently acknowledged an issue in Windows 10 cumulative update KB4093120, which was published on April 17 for systems running the Anniversary Update (version 1607).
The company originally said there were no known bugs in this cumulative update, but it has recently updated the official KB page with one issue that’s reportedly hitting enterprises – Windows 10 Anniversary Update is no longer getting updates for Home and Pro SKUs, but only for Education and Enterprise, as support for this particular version already ended.
“After installing the March 13, 2018 or later Cumulative Update for Windows 10 version 1607, only the latest Windows 10 feature update is returned as applicable. This prevents the deployment of previously released feature updates using ConfigMgr (current branch) and Windows 10 servicing plans,” Microsoft says in an update posted on April 18.
The temporary workaround, in this case, is to decline all feature updates on the WSUS server except for the one that you want to install with ConfigMgr, Microsoft says, and then run another update scan or wait for devices to do it automatically.
Further fixes coming in future cumulative update
Furthermore, the company promises that a fix would be part of a future cumulative update, though the exact timing of this release is not yet available. Microsoft will ship a new batch of cumulative updates to Windows 10 in early May as part of the next month’s Patch Tuesday cycle.
On the other hand, there are no reports of failed installs experienced by Windows 10 cumulative update KB4093120, and this can only be a good thing given that the patch is specifically aimed at enterprises and education PCs.
In the past, several cumulative updates hit installation bugs that pushed systems into reboot loops, and the most recent one is the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update release KB4093112 published on Patch Tuesday.
