Probability of successful installation and continued operation of the machine
Overview
KB5055519 is a cumulative update for Windows 10 and Windows Server systems released on April 8, 2025. This update includes both security and quality improvements. The update is part of Microsoft's regular maintenance and security update cycle, addressing various security vulnerabilities and system improvements across supported Windows versions.
General Purpose
The primary purpose of this update is to enhance system security and address known vulnerabilities. It includes protections for Kerberos Authentication vulnerabilities related to certificate authority stores, implements Daylight Saving Time updates for the Aysen region in Chile, and introduces security improvements for Internet Information Services (IIS) through the creation of a new inetpub folder structure. The update also contains servicing stack improvements to enhance the reliability of the Windows update process itself.
General Sentiment
The general sentiment towards this update appears mixed. While it provides important security fixes and system improvements, there are some concerns regarding installation issues, particularly for systems running certain Citrix components. The update requires a prerequisite installation of the August 10, 2021 SSU (KB5005112), which could add complexity to deployment. However, Microsoft has provided clear documentation and workarounds for known issues, suggesting a proactive approach to addressing potential problems.
Known Issues
- Citrix Session Recording Agent version 2411 may prevent successful installation of the update, causing system rollback
- Active Directory Group Policy audit logon/logoff events may not show as enabled in local policy even when functioning correctly
- A new %systemdrive%inetpub folder will be created post-update and should not be deleted
- Event ID 45 events may be logged on domain controllers due to Kerberos Authentication changes
