Known issues

Symptom Workaround
An old problem running from multiple updates is System and user certificates might be missing when updating from Windows 10 v1809, or later to a later version. You will come across this issue if you’ve already installed CU rolled out on September 16, 2020 or later. Afterward, you proceed to update to a later version via media or an installation source that does not have a CU rolled out on October 13, 2020, or later integrated. This predominantly occurs when managed devices are updated via outdated bundles. Furthermore, this also happens when using media through an update management tool such as WSUS or Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager. This might also occur when ISO image or physical media or that do not contain the most recent updates.

Note – Devices using Windows Update for Business or that connect directly to Windows Update are not impacted. Any device connecting to Windows Update should always receive the latest versions of the feature update, including the latest LCU, without any extra steps.

If you have already come across this issue, you can mitigate it within the uninstall window by going back to your previous version. You can follow this article if necessary – How to change the roll back period to 60 days in Windows 10.

Some PCs with Windows installations created from custom offline media or custom ISO images might have the classic Edge browser eliminated by this update, but not automatically replaced by the new one. This problem only takes place when ISO images or custom offline media are developed by slipstreaming this update into the image.  Additionally, the images or media first installed the standalone SSU which was rolled out on March 29, 2021, or later.

Remark – Devices that connect straight to Windows Update to get updates are not affected. This comprises devices using Windows Update for Business. Youst have SSU installed.

To prevent this problem from occurring, slipstream the SSU March 29, 2021 or later before slipstreaming the LCU. To do this with the combined LCU and SSU you will have to separate the SSU. Use the underneath method to extract using SSU –

1.  Extract the cab from the MSU using this command without quotes (For instance, KB5000842) – “expand Windows10.0-KB5000842-x64.msu /f:Windows10.0-KB5000842-x64.cab <destination path>”

2.  Extract the Servicing Stack Update from the earlier extracted cab through running – “expand Windows10.0-KB5000842-x64.cab /f:* <destination path>”

3.  You are now comprising the SSU cab, in this example named SSU-19041.903-x64.cab. Slipstream this file into the offline image then into the Cumulative Update.

Those who already found this issue can directly install the new Microsoft Edge.
