Windows 10 KB4554364 update breaks WiFi for some users

Microsoft recently rolled out Windows 10 KB4554364 update to Windows 10 PCs running Windows 10 Version 1903 and Version 1903. The update added no new features as you’d expected from a cumulative update, but it came with a fix for the annoying VPN bug. However, as is the case with most of the Cumulative updates, KB4554364 apparently has its own issue.

 

A number of users are now complaining that the KB4554364 update causing WiFI issue. Connecting Windows 10 device running KB4554364 update to a Wi-Fi modem/router now returns the following error message:

Socket error 0×2200021

 

c:/windows/sywow64/appidpolicyengineApi.dll, instruction cannot be read

The report is yet to be acknowledged by Microsoft which means we don’t have an official solution as of yet. There is one simple solution — uninstall the KB4554364 update.

HOW TO UNINSTALL WINDOWS 10 KB4554364 UPDATE

  1. Hit Windows+I to open the Settings app
  2. Click the “Update & security” option.
  3. On the “Update & security” screen.
  4. Switch to the “Windows Update” tab.
  5. Click the “View update history” option.
  6. Click the “Uninstall updates” link.

Addenum: Well, it turns out, it was an April fools prank from a group of people – and the way, how it has been established isn’t funny – imho. The abused as a group of different users the Microsoft Answers forum, where volunteers spend their spare time to help users – and then avoid, to delete or updated their posts. I read that confession about the April fools prank in one of six posts), after I created this article. It’s another reason for me, to avoid spending my time further in Microsoft Answers forum anymore – too much is going downhill during the last years.

Addendum 2: As a Microsoft Answers community moderator I expressed my disappointment and escalated one post to Microsoft’s staff. The posts were (finally) deleted by the Microsoft moderators after my intervention. I hope that the jokers were additionally blocked as users in the forum.

 

KB4554364 update breaking down Wifi?  It did NOT do that on my PCs running v1909.

 

FAKE NEWS!  NOT Funny 😡
