The December 2022 security update release, referred to as our "B" release, is now available for Windows 11 and all supported versions of Windows 10. We recommend that you install these updates promptly. For more information about the contents of this update, see the release notes, which are easily accessible from the Windows 11 and Windows 10 update history pages. For instructions on how to install this update on your home device, check the Update Windows article. To learn more about the different types of monthly quality updates, see our Windows quality updates primer.


Note: The December 2022 security updates release notes for Windows Server 2022 and Windows Server 2019 have an important known issue documented: System Center Virtual Machine Manager might have issues using new NICs with VMs. More information is also available on Windows release health.


IMPORTANT: There will be no preview, non-security “C” releases for Windows 10 or Windows 11 this month. The "C" releases normally target the third week of the month.


Highlights for the Windows 11 update:
Addresses a known issue that might affect Task Manager, which might display certain elements in unexpected colors if you have "Choose your mode" set to "Custom" in the Colors section of Settings.
Includes quality improvements to the servicing stack, which is the component that installs Windows updates.
