UPDATED 5/13/2025: The Windows 10 update KB5058379 (build 19045.5854) is now rolling out in the Stable Channel as the May 2025 update as a mandatory install. This is another maintenance update for the operating system that brings various fixes and improvements to version 22H2. Also, Windows 11 21H2 is getting build 19044.5854 with the same improvements as the latest version of the operating system.
According to the official changes (logs from the Stable Channel as a preview and Release Preview Channel), Windows 10 build 19045.5854 introduces a couple of non-security fixes.
On the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), the GPU paravirtualization is case-sensitive, and this could cause the support to fail. However, this problem has now been fixed.
Microsoft also notes that KB5058379 updates the Windows Kernel Vulnerable Driver Blocklist (DriverSiPolicy.p7b). Furthermore, the update adds changes to blocklist drivers with security vulnerabilities that have been used in Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attacks.
In addition, the software giant also made available a preview of the next Patch Tuesday update for Windows 11, which will include several new features and improvements. For example, for the next quality update, Microsoft plans to officially roll out Windows Recall, Click to Do, and Semantic Indexing for Copilot+ PCs.
Furthermore, this release will roll out improvements and changes for other components, such as Widgets, File Explorer, Settings, Windows Share, Start menu, Taskbar, and more.
Older versions of Windows 10
Furthermore, Microsoft is releasing updates available for older operating system versions, including 1809, 1607, and 1507. For example, the company is rolling out the update KB5058392 for version 1809, bumping the build number to 17763.7314 with security and graphics fixes. Also, the company is adding an update for the Secure Boot Advanced Targeting (SBAT) and Linux Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) to improve the detection of Linux systems.
Windows 10 1607 receives the update KB5058383, which bumps the version to build 14393.8066, addresses some issues, and updates the SBAT to improve the detection of Linux systems.
Finally, Windows 10 1507 is getting the update KB5058387, which bumps the build number to 10240.21014 and adds improvements for the Secure Boot Advanced Targeting and Linux Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) to better detect Linux systems.

If you want to download and install Windows 10 build 19045.5854, you can force the update from Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update, turn on the “Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available” toggle switch, and click the “Check for updates” button.

Windows 10 end of support
Microsoft announced the end of support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025, even though they are still releasing maintenance updates. After this date, Microsoft will no longer provide security updates, bug fixes, features, or technical support for Windows 10. This lack of updates will leave your system vulnerable to security threats and may decrease its performance.
Since the software giant will no longer provide updates or support for Windows 10, you should upgrade to Windows 11 or another operating system, such as Linux Mint, or plan to purchase a new device.
If you want to continue using Windows 10, Microsoft now offers Extended Security Updates (ESU). This service was originally reserved for organizations needing to run older operating systems beyond the official support period, but it is now also offered to regular consumers.
