Microsoft Begins Testing Windows 10 Version 1903 Cumulative Update KB4501375 

 

Microsoft is gearing up for another release of a cumulative update, this time for its most recent Windows 10 version called May 2019 Update and also referred to as version 1903.

As a result, cumulative update KB4501375 is now available for download for users enrolled in the Release Preview ring of the Windows Insider program.

After the installation of KB4501375, the OS build number is increased to 18362.207.

Given the update is only offered to testers, a changelog isn’t yet available, and further information on what it fixes is expected to be published when the public rollout to production devices begins.No release notes available just yetIn the meantime, there are signs that cumulative update KB4501375 fixes an Event Viewer bug that was introduced by the previous updates published on Patch Tuesday. As per Microsoft:

“When trying to expand, view or create Custom Views in Event Viewer, you may receive the error, "MMC has detected an error in a snap-in and will unload it." and the app may stop responding or close. You may also receive the error using Filter Current Log in the Action menu with built-in views or logs. Built-in views and other features of Event Viewer should work as expected.”

The bug also hit older Windows 10 versions, but Microsoft could thus try to evaluate the fix with help from insiders on Windows 10 May 2019 Update before rolling it out to everyone else in the next batch of cumulative updates.

In addition to cumulative update KB4501375, Microsoft also published a new servicing stack update for Windows 10. KB4506933 is also shipped to insiders in the Release Preview ring without a changelog, but servicing stack updates are first and foremost supposed to improve the reliability of the Windows Update service.

Insiders in the Release Preview ring can go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Check for updates to install the new cumulative update right away.
