Alongside KB5060829 for Windows 11 24H2, Microsoft has also released its C-release non-security preview update for Windows 11 23H2 and 22H2 today. The new update is rolling out under KB5060826 (builds 22621.5549 and 22631.5549).
KB5060826 brings an upgraded Setup which will now let admins choose whether to deploy critical updates during the OOBE (the initial out-of-box experience setup on Windows). Alongside that, it also adds the new PC migration experience on Windows Backup, as well as the default app changes related to the European Economic Area (EEA) region.
The full changelog is given below:
First up we have the changes and improvements for Gradual Rollout:
-
[App defaults]
-
New! We are rolling out some small changes in the European Economic Area (EEA) region for default browsers through the Set default button in Settings > Apps > Default apps:
-
Additional file and link types will be set for the new default browser, if it registers them.
-
The new default browser will be pinned to the Taskbar and Start menu unless you choose not to pin it by clearing the checkboxes.
-
There is now a separate one-click button for browsers to change your .pdf default, if the browser registers for the .pdf file type.

[PC Migration] New! The PC-to-PC migration experience in Windows is starting to roll out. You’ll begin to see the landing and the pairing page in the Windows Backup app, giving you a first look at what’s coming. In the full experience, you’ll be able to transfer files and settings from an old PC to a new one during setup. Support for this feature during PC setup will arrive in a future update. The rollout is being introduced in phases to support a smooth experience.
-
[Windows Share] New! When you share links or web content using the Windows share window, you will see a visual preview for that content.
Up next, we have Normal Rollout features:
-
[Windows Setup] New! Admins can configure whether a new device gets critical updates during the out-of-box experience (OOBE).
The update has a single known issue related to Noto fonts.
You can view the support article here on Microsoft's official website. The update can be obtained by clicking on "Check for optional updates" inside Windows Update. You can also download it manually from Microsoft Update Catalog website.
