KB5058921: Overview with user sentiment and feedback

Overview

KB5058921 is an out-of-band update released on April 11, 2025 for Windows 10 version 1607 and Windows Server 2016. This non-security update addresses specific quality improvements and focuses on resolving an issue related to Active Directory Group Policy audit settings. The update is part of Microsoft's ongoing effort to maintain system stability and improve functionality for enterprise environments.

General Purpose

The primary purpose of this update is to address a known issue where Audit Logon/Logoff events in the local policy of the Active Directory Group Policy might not display correctly. Specifically, even when these audit policies are enabled and functioning as expected, they may appear as disabled in the Local Group Policy Editor or Local Security Policy interface. This particularly affects the display of the "Audit logon events" policy, which may incorrectly show a Security Setting of "No auditing" despite being actively enforced.

General Sentiment

The general sentiment towards this update appears positive as it addresses a specific display issue in enterprise environments without introducing new complications. The update is particularly relevant for system administrators managing Active Directory environments, while home users are unlikely to be affected by or need this update. The focused nature of the fix and its non-security classification suggests minimal risk for deployment.

Known Issues

• Microsoft has not reported any known issues with this update
• The update requires the latest Servicing Stack Update (KB5055661) to be installed first
• Home users are generally unaffected by this update as it pertains to enterprise features
