Improvements

This non-security update includes quality improvements. When you install this KB:

• This update addresses an issue that affects the Appx State Repository. When you remove a user profile, the cleanup is incomplete. Because of this, its database grows as time passes. This growth might cause delays when users sign in to multi-user environments like FSLogix.
• This update affects the United Mexican States. This update supports the government’s daylight saving time change order for 2023.
• This update addresses an issue that affects the Z-order of two maximized windows. A window that is behind another window might appear on top.
• This update addresses an issue that affects AppV. It stops file names from having the correct letter case (uppercase or lowercase).
• This update addresses an issue that affects Microsoft Edge. The issue removes conflicting policies for Microsoft Edge. This occurs when you set the MDMWinsOverGPFlag in a Microsoft Intune tenant and Intune detects a policy conflict.
• This update addresses an issue that affects Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). Using a provisioning package for bulk provisioning fails.
• This update addresses an issue that affects the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS). LSASS might stop responding. This occurs after you run Sysprep on a domain-joined machine.
• This update addresses an issue that affects parity virtual disks. Using Server Manager to create them fails.
