Today, Microsoft released a number of patches for supported Windows 10 version. The newest Windows 11 OS has also received its first cumulative update with a fix. Here are the changes.
Windows 11, Build 22000.258, KB5006674
Windows 11 has got its first cumulative update with the patch KB5006674. The update raises the OS version to build 22000.258, and comes with the following changes.
Addresses known compatibility issues between some Intel “Killer” and “SmartByte” networking software and Windows 11 (original release). Devices with the affected software might drop User Datagram Protocol (UDP) packets under certain conditions. This creates performance and other issues for protocols based on UDP. For example, some websites might load slower than others on the affected devices, which might cause videos to stream slower in certain resolutions. VPN solutions based on UDP might also be slower.
It also incorporates an update to Windows Servicing Stack, version 22000.190.
The patch is available via Windows Update. Existing users can open Settings (Win + I), and navigate to the Windows Update section. Click on the Check for updates button on the right.
Alternatively, you can download the update package manually from the Microsoft Update Catalog.
