Overview
KB5058922 is an out-of-band update released on April 11, 2025 for Windows 10 and related server versions. This update addresses specific issues with Active Directory Group Policy and includes improvements to the Windows servicing stack. The update is particularly relevant for enterprise environments using Active Directory and Group Policy management tools.
This update comes at a critical time as Windows 10 approaches its end of support in October 2025. Microsoft has emphasized that after October 14, 2025, they will no longer provide free software updates, technical assistance, or security fixes for Windows 10.
General Purpose
The primary purpose of this update is to address a known issue affecting the display of Audit Logon/Logoff events in Active Directory Group Policy. The update fixes a situation where audit policies might not show as enabled in the Local Group Policy Editor or Local Security Policy, even when they are actually enabled and functioning correctly. This particularly affects enterprise environments where logon auditing is crucial for security monitoring and compliance.
Additionally, this update includes the latest servicing stack update (SSU) combined with the latest cumulative update (LCU). The SSU improvements enhance the reliability of the update process itself, helping to prevent potential issues during future update installations.
General Sentiment
The general sentiment towards this update appears cautiously positive, particularly for enterprise users who rely on Active Directory Group Policy functionality. The update addresses a specific display issue that, while not affecting the actual functionality of audit policies, could cause confusion in policy management.
It's worth noting that home users are unlikely to be affected by or concerned with the main issue this update addresses, as logon auditing is primarily relevant in enterprise environments. The inclusion of servicing stack improvements is seen as a positive addition that should help maintain system stability during future updates.
