This update was specifically released to address a critical issue affecting Surface Hub v1 devices that occurred after installing the previous update KB5060533 (released on June 10, 2025). The primary purpose of this update is to prevent Surface Hub v1 devices from encountering a start failure issue that manifested as a "Secure Boot Violation" error, which rendered these devices unusable.Microsoft identified that the June 10 Patch Tuesday update (KB5060533) was causing Surface Hub v1 devices to fail to boot properly, displaying a "Secure Boot Violation" error message or even encountering a blue screen of death. As a result, Microsoft paused the KB5060533 update for Surface Hub v1 on June 11, 2025, and subsequently released KB5063159 as a replacement. This out-of-band update contains all the fixes and quality improvements that were part of the original KB5060533 update but addresses the critical boot failure issue specific to Surface Hub v1 devices.

General Purpose

KB5063159 serves as a critical replacement for the June 2025 Patch Tuesday update (KB5060533) specifically for Surface Hub v1 devices. The primary purpose of this update is to prevent the start failure issue that was causing Surface Hub v1 devices to display a "Secure Boot Violation" error after installing KB5060533. While Microsoft paused the distribution of KB5060533 to Surface Hub v1 devices on June 11, 2025, this out-of-band update ensures that these devices can receive the necessary security and quality improvements without experiencing the boot failure issue.The update includes all the fixes and improvements that were part of KB5060533, ensuring that Surface Hub v1 devices remain secure and up-to-date. Additionally, KB5063159 includes the latest servicing stack update (KB5063158 - version 19045.5967), which improves the reliability of the update process itself. This combined approach helps mitigate potential issues during installation while ensuring that all critical security patches are applied. For users of other Windows 10 devices who have already successfully installed KB5060533, KB5063159 is not offered, as it primarily targets the Surface Hub v1 issue.

General Sentiment

The general sentiment toward KB5063159 appears to be cautiously positive, as it addresses a critical issue that was affecting Surface Hub v1 devices. Users of Surface Hub v1 who experienced the boot failure issue after installing KB5060533 will likely welcome this fix, as it allows their devices to function properly again while still receiving necessary security updates.However, there is some underlying concern about the broader quality of Microsoft's June 2025 patch cycle. According to Windows Latest, the June 2025 update cycle has been problematic not only for Windows 10 but also for Windows 11, where Microsoft had to replace KB5060842 with KB5063060 due to issues causing PCs to reboot when playing games like Fortnite. Additionally, some Windows Server customers reportedly experienced issues with DHCP server functionality after the June 2025 security patches.These recurring issues across different Windows versions may contribute to some hesitation among IT professionals about immediately installing updates, even those meant to fix previous problems. The proximity of these issues to Windows 10's end of support date (October 14, 2025) might also raise questions about the quality of final updates for the operating system.

Known Issues

• There are reports of blurry or unclear CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) text when displayed at 96 DPI (100% scaling) in Chromium-based browsers such as Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome. The March 2025 Preview Update introduced Noto fonts in collaboration with Google for CJK languages as fallbacks to improve text rendering when websites or apps don't specify appropriate fonts. The issue is due to limited pixel density at 96 DPI, which can reduce the clarity and alignment of CJK characters. Increasing the display scaling improves clarity by enhancing text rendering. Microsoft has shared its findings on the blurry text issue at 96 DPI, along with potential solutions with Google for further discussion.
