Microsoft creates separate Windows 11 24H2 update for incompatible PCs
Microsoft confirmed on Tuesday that it's pushing a revised security update targeting some Windows 11 24H2 systems incompatible with the initial update released during this month's Patch Tuesday.
"This update is being gradually rolled out to devices running Windows 11, version 24H2. We've identified a compatibility issue affecting a limited set of these devices," the company said in a Twitter thread.
"If your device is affected, you'll receive a revised update with all the June 2025 security improvements in the near term."
In a message center update on Tuesday, Redmond added that "the June 2025 security update is fully available for all other supported versions of Windows."
Microsoft has yet to disclose the hardware or software configurations affected by the compatibility issue that prompted the release of a revised security update and how the affected PCs were impacted after installing this month's Patch Tuesday cumulative updates.
Also, the company didn't share if this was the first time it released a revised Patch Tuesday update to address compatibility issues and if this is something customers can expect from Microsoft in the future.
A Microsoft spokesperson was not immediately available for comment when contacted by BleepingComputer earlier today.
On Tuesday, Microsoft released security updates (KB5060842 and KB5060999) for 66 vulnerabilities in Windows 11 24H2 and 23H2, including one actively exploited Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) zero-day (CVE-2025-33053) and a publicly disclosed Windows SMB privilege escalation flaw.
This month's Patch Tuesday Windows updates addressed ten critical vulnerabilities, eight allowing attackers to gain remote code execution on unpatched devices and two enabling them to escalate privileges.
KB5060842 also resolves a Windows Hello issue preventing users from signing in with self-signed certificates and extends system restore points availability up to 60 days on Windows 11 24H2 devices, while KB5060999 fixes a graphics support issue blocking Remote Desktop connections with "session has ended" and "remote desktop connection cannot be established" errors.
The same day, Microsoft released the KB5060533 Windows 10 22H2 cumulative update, which brings seconds back to the time shown in the Calendar flyout and fixes an issue causing Hyper-V virtual machines with Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server to freeze or restart unexpectedly.
