New updates now available for Windows 10 devices

Jun 27, 2019 05:03 GMT  ·  By

Microsoft has just released a new batch of cumulative updates for all Windows 10 versions except for the May 2019 Update (also referred to as version 1903).

Since they don’t land on a Patch Tuesday, there are no security improvements in these updates, and the focus is entirely on fixing bugs and refining the performance of Windows 10.

All updates, however, come with a single change mentioned in the release notes, albeit more undisclosed improvements could also be introduced. According to the software giant, the June 26 cumulative updates resolves an issue breaking down the Event Viewer. This is a bug that was introduced by the previous batch of cumulative updates for Windows 10.

“Addresses an issue that may prevent devices from connecting to some Storage Area Network (SAN) devices using Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) after installing KB4499147. You may also receive an error in the System log section of Event Viewer with Event ID 43 from iScsiPrt and a description of “Target failed to respond in time for a login request.”

Cumulative updates and OS build numbers

The cumulative updates that are included in this new batch are the following:  

Windows 10 October 2018 Update (version 1809): KB4509479 (OS Build 17763.593)
Windows 10 April 2018 Update (version 1803): KB4509478 (OS Build 17134.860)
Windows 10 Fall Creators Update (version 1709): KB4509477 (OS Build 16299.1239)
Windows 10 Creators Update (version 1703): KB4509476 (OS Build 15063.1898)
Keep in mind that Windows 10 Creators Update and Windows 10 Fall Creators Update no longer receive cumulative updates on Home and Pro SKUs, so devices must be in the LTSC or run Education or Enterprise versions to be offered the updates on Windows Update.

There are no reports of failed installs at the time of writing this article, and Microsoft says there are no new known issues, others than the ones that have already been acknowledged in the previous cumulative updates.
