14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft has released cumulative update KB4512941 for devices running Windows 10 version 1903, or the May 2019 Update, after previously testing it as part of the Release Preview ring in the Windows Insider program.
This new cumulative update increases the OS build number to 18362.329 and comes with a long list of improvements, all of which you can find below the article.
The most important, however, concerns a bug that’s been around for several years already and causing Windows 10 apps to come with the default package name, and not the actual name after installation. I’ve experienced this problem on more than just one Windows 10 version, so it’s good that Microsoft finally managed to resolve it in the May update.
The company explains the following in the release notes of this cumulative update:
“Addresses an issue that may cause the name of an unsupported application to appear as default text, such as “ms-resource:AppName/Text” in the Start menu after upgrading the operating system.”
Windows Sandbox fixes
Additionally, Microsoft managed to correct a bug hitting Windows Sandbox. Launched in Windows 10 version 1903, Windows Sandbox allows users to run a separate Windows 10 instance in a sandbox, making it possible to run files without any risk of compromising their data.
Due to a bug in the latest updates, however, Windows Sandbox was broken down for some, so this cumulative update finally fixes and restores the expected behavior of Windows Sandbox.
“Addresses an issue that may prevent the Windows Sandbox from starting with the error, "ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND (0x80070002)." This occurs on devices in which the operating system language is changed during the update process when installing Windows 10, version 1903.”
You can download the new cumulative update from Windows Update, and at the time of wirting this article, we are not aware of any installation issues experienced on devices where it was already installed.
