Microsoft Releases Windows 10 Cumulative Update KB4499177 

 

Microsoft has released a new cumulative update for Windows 10 Anniversary Update (version 1607) and Windows Server 2016.

 

Windows 10 cumulative update KB4499177 pushes the OS build number to 14393.2999 and comes with fixes that are also part of the other cumulative updates released for the rest of Windows 10 versions.

For example, this update updates time zone information for Morocco and Palestinian Authority, while also resolving an issue that causes Microsoft Office and other applications to prompt for a password after the user account password is changed.

Additionally, Microsoft says Windows 10 cumulative update KB4499177 fix an issue that causes the OS to fail to record the last logon time of a local user, “even when the user has accessed the server’s network share,” as per the official changelog.

The full release notes are embedded in the box at the end of the article.Anniversary Update no longer supported for Home and ProAs the majority of cumulative updates, KB4499177 comes with some known issues as well, but most of them have already been acknowledged in the previous releases.

More important to know is that Windows 10 Anniversary Update no longer receives updates for Home and Pro versions. Microsoft also ended servicing for Windows 10 Enterprise, Education, and IoT Enterprise editions on April 9, 2019, so today’s update is specifically aimed at devices enrolled in LTSC.

“Devices on the Long-Term Servicing Channels (LTSC) will continue to receive updates until October 2026 per the Lifecycle Policy page. Windows 10 Anniversary Update (v. 1607) devices running the Intel “Clovertrail” chipset will continue to receive updates until January 2023 per the Microsoft Community blog,” Microsoft explains.

The update is available on Windows Update, and it can also be downloaded from Microsoft’s Update Catalog using the link here. A reboot of the device is obviously required to complete the installation.
