The following known issue will be resolved by installing the KB4517211 update, due to be released in late September 2019: + +- TPM attestation fails on Windows 10 1903 due to missing AKI extension in EK certificate. (An additional validation added in Windows 10 1903 to check that the TPM EK certs had the proper attributes according to the TCG specifications uncovered that a number of them don’t, so that validation will be removed). +Download and install the KB4517211 update.

This update is currently pending release. +
The following known issues are resolved by installing the August 30, 2019 KB4512941 update (OS Build 18362.329): + +- Windows Autopilot for existing devices feature does not properly suppress “Activities” page during OOBE. (Because of this, you’ll see that extra page during OOBE). +- TPM attestation state is not cleared by sysprep /generalize, causing TPM attestation failure during later OOBE flow. (This isn’t a particularly common issue, but you could run into it while testing if you are running sysprep /generalize and then rebooting or reimaging the device to go back through an Autopilot white glove or self-deploying scenario). +- TPM attestation may fail if the device has a valid AIK cert but no EK cert. (This is related to the previous item). +- If TPM attestation fails during the Windows Autopilot white glove process, the landing page appears to be hung. (Basically, the white glove landing page, where you click “Provision” to start the white glove process, isn’t reporting errors properly). +- TPM attestation fails on newer Infineon TPMs (firmware version > 7.69). (Prior to this fix, only a specific list of firmware versions was accepted). +- Device naming templates may truncate the computer name at 14 characters instead of 15. +- Assigned Access policies cause a reboot which can interfere with the configuration of single-app kiosk devices. +Download and install the KB4512941 update.

Notification issue: \"Your device is missing important security and quality fixes.\"
Some users may have incorrectly received the notification \"Your device is missing important security and quality fixes\" in the Windows Update dialog and a red \"!\" in the task tray on the Windows Update tray icon. This notification is intended for devices that are 90 days or more out of date, but some users with installed updates released in June or July also saw this notification.

Affected platforms:
  • Client: Windows 10, version 1803
  • Server: Windows Server, version 1803
Resolution: This issue was resolved on the server side on August 30, 2019. Only devices that are out of date by 90 days or more should now see the notification. No action is required by the user to resolve this issue. If you are still seeing the \"Your device is missing important security and quality fixes\" notification, we recommend selecting Check for Updates in the Windows Update dialog. For instructions, see Update Windows 10. Microsoft always recommends trying to keep your devices up to date, as the monthly updates contain important security fixes.

Safeguard on certain devices with some Intel and Broadcom Wi-Fi adapters
Microsoft and NEC have found incompatibility issues with Intel Centrino 6205/6235 and Broadcom 802.11ac Wi-Fi cards when running Windows 10, version 1903 on specific models of NEC devices. If these devices are updated to Windows 10, version 1903, they will no longer be able to use any Wi-Fi connections. The Wi-Fi driver may have a yellow exclamation point in device manager. The task tray icon for networking may show the icon for no internet and Network & Internet settings may not show any Wi-Fi networks.

To safeguard your update experience, we have applied a compatibility hold on the affected devices from being offered Windows 10, version 1903.

Affected platforms:
  • Client: Windows 10, version 1903
Workaround: If you are using an affected device and you have already installed Windows 10, version 1903, you can mitigate the issue disabling then re-enabling the Wi-Fi adapter in Device Manager. You should now be able to use Wi-Fi until your next reboot.

Next steps: Microsoft and NEC are working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.

Note We recommend that you do not attempt to manually update using the Update now button or the Media Creation Tool until this issue has been resolved.

Audio in games is quiet or different than expected
Microsoft has received reports that audio in certain games is quieter or different than expected. At the request of some of our audio partners, we implemented a compatibility change that enabled certain games to query support and render multi-channel audio. Due to customer feedback, we are reverting this change as some games and some devices are not rendering multi-channel audio as expected. This may result in games sounding different than customers are used to and may have missing channels.

Affected platforms:
  • Client: Windows 10, version 1903
Workaround: To mitigate the issue, open settings in the impacted game and disable multi-channel audio, if this option is available. You can also search in the Windows Control Panel for 3rd party audio device control panels and disable Multi-channel audio or Virtual Surround Sound, if these options are available.  

Next steps: We are working on a resolution and estimates a solution will be available in late September.

Windows updates that are SHA-2 signed may not be offered for Symantec and Norton AV
Symantec identified the potential for a negative interaction that may occur after Windows Updates code signed with SHA-2 only certificates are installed on devices with Symantec or Norton antivirus programs installed. The software may not correctly identify files included in the update as code signed by Microsoft, putting the device at risk for a delayed or incomplete update.

Affected platforms:
  • Client: Windows 7 SP1
  • Server: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
Resolution: The safeguard hold has been removed. Symantec has completed its evaluation of the impact of this update and future updates to Windows 7/Windows 2008 R2 and has determined that there is no increased risk of a false positive detection for all in-field versions of Symantec Endpoint Protection and Norton antivirus programs. See the Symantec support article for additional detail and please reach out to Symantec or Norton support if you encounter any issues.
