Update KB5017383 fixes and changes for Windows 11

These are the fixes and new features available with the latest update preview of Windows 11:

  • Introduces WebAuthn redirection. It lets you authenticate in apps and on websites without a password when you use Remote Desktop. Then, you can use Windows Hello or security devices, such as Fast Identity Online 2.0 (FIDO2) keys.
  • New! Adds more dynamic Widgets content to your taskbar with notification badging. When you open the Widgets board, a banner appears at the top of the board. It provides more information about what triggered the notification badge.
  • Addresses an issue that requires you to reinstall an app if the Microsoft Store has not signed that app. This issue occurs after you upgrade to a newer OS.
  • Addresses an issue that stops codecs from being updated from the Microsoft Store.
  • Addresses a race condition in framework autorepair registration. This issue occurs because a registration key is missing.
  • Addresses an issue that affects the Network Policy Server Management (NPSM) service. This issue causes major delays when you sign out.
  • Addresses an issue that affects the Windows Search service. Indexing progress is slow when you use the service.
  • Addresses an issue that affects cached credentials for security keys and FIDO2 authentications. On hybrid domain-joined devices, the system removes these cached credentials.
  • Addresses an issue that affects a network’s static IP. The issue causes the configuration of the static IP to be inconsistent. Because of this, NetworkAdapterConfiguration() fails sporadically.
  • Addresses a rare stop error that happens after you change the display mode and more than one display is in use.
  • Addresses an issue that affects rendering in Desktop Window Manager (DWM). This issue might cause your device to stop responding in a virtual machine setting when you use certain video graphics drivers.

  • Addresses an issue that might cause a black screen to appear on your display. This might occur when you use a pen to turn on high dynamic range (HDR).
  • Addresses an issue that affects the App-V client service. The service leaks memory when you delete App-V registry nodes.
  • Addresses an issue that might change the default printer if the printer is a network printer.

  • Addresses an issue that might bypass MSHTML and ActiveX rules for WDAC.
  • Addresses an issue that causes WDAC to log 3091 and 3092 events in audit mode.
  • Addresses an issue that affects Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC). It stops WDAC from logging .NET Dynamic Code trust verification failures.
  • Addresses an issue that affects WDAC policies. If you enable SecureLaunch on a device, WDAC policies will not apply to that device.
  • Addresses an issue that occurs when a WDAC policy fails to load. The system logs that failure as an error, but the system should log the failure as a warning.
  • Addresses an issue that affects Code Integrity logging. It logs issues as errors instead of warnings. Because of this, automatic repair is triggered.
  • Addresses an issue that affects the touch keyboard. The touch keyboard immediately closes when you tap to switch apps.
