In this article, we will talk about the latest Windows 11 Update for the Main Release, which is Build 22621.2134 or KB5029263.

For those of you who are not familiar with how Windows 11 Updates for the Main Release work, I will explain it to you in the following lines.

Every month Windows 11 has a B and a C Release for Windows 11. Usually, the B Release is launched on the second Tuesday of the month and contains all the features that were tested in the previous month’s C Release.

Particular to this Build, you can encounter the following:

  • This update makes miscellaneous security improvements to internal OS functionality. No additional issues were documented for this release.

To see the full list of Security Improvements in this Build, you can check this article from the Microsoft Blog.

This Update also includes Improvements from last month’s C Release:

  • This update makes brightness settings more accurate.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects certain display and audio devices. They are missing after your system resumes from sleep.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Widgets. They unpin from the taskbar when you do not expect it.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects virtual private networks (VPN). There might be excessive Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) requests to the network gateway. This occurs when the VPN is on a wireless mesh network that uses an aggressive throttling algorithm. Because of this, network performance is poor.
