Unable to create local users in Chinese, Japanese and Korean during device setup
When setting up a new Windows device using the Out of Box Experience (OOBE), you might be unable to create a local user when using Input Method Editor (IME). This issue might affect you if you are using the IME for Chinese, Japanese, or Korean languages.

Note This issue does not affect using a Microsoft Account during OOBE.

Affected platforms:
  • Client: Windows 10, version 1909; Windows 10, version 1903; Windows 10, version 1809; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10, version 1803; Windows 10, version 1709
  • Server: Windows Server, version 1909; Windows Server, version 1903; Windows Server, version 1809; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server, version 1803; Windows Server, version 1709
Workaround: To mitigate this issue, set the keyboard language to English during user creation or use a Microsoft Account to complete OOBE. You can set the keyboard language back to your preferred language after user creation. Once the OOBE is done and you are at the desktop, you can rename the current user using these instructions. If you prefer to create a new local user, see KB4026923.

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

TLS connections might fail or timeout
Updates for Windows released October 8, 2019 or later provide protections, tracked by CVE-2019-1318, against an attack that could allow unauthorized access to information or data within TLS connections. This type of attack is known as a man-in-the-middle exploit. Windows might fail to connect to TLS clients and servers that do not support Extended Master Secret for resumption (RFC 7627). Lack of RFC support might cause one or more of the following errors or logged events:
  • \"The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure Channel\"
  • SCHANNEL event 36887 is logged in the System event log with the description, \"A fatal alert was received from the remote endpoint. The TLS protocol defined fatal alert code is 20.​\"
Affected platforms:
  • Client: Windows 10, version 1903; Windows 10, version 1809; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10, version 1803; Windows 10, version 1709; Windows 10, version 1703; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2016; Windows 10, version 1607; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2015; Windows 8.1; Windows 7 SP1
  • Server: Windows Server, version 1903; Windows Server, version 1809; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server, version 1803; Windows Server, version 1709 ; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012; Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1; Windows Server 2008 SP2

Next Steps: Connections between two devices running any supported version of Windows should not have this issue when fully updated. There is no update for Windows needed for this issue. These changes are required to address a security issue and security compliance. For information, see KB4528489.

Workaround: You can manually install the November 2019 update for Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool (MSRT) by downloading it here for 32-bit x86-based devices or here for 64-bit x64-based devices. If you are using WSUS or Configuration Manager, guidance can be found here.

Next steps: This issue has been mitigated on the server side and MSRT will no longer offered to affected platforms. We are working on a resolution and estimate a solution will be available in the December 2019 release of Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool (MSRT).

TLS connections might fail or timeout
Updates for Windows released October 8, 2019 or later provide protections, tracked by CVE-2019-1318, against an attack that could allow unauthorized access to information or data within TLS connections. This type of attack is known as a man-in-the-middle exploit. Windows might fail to connect to TLS clients and servers that do not support Extended Master Secret for resumption (RFC 7627). Lack of RFC support might cause one or more of the following errors or logged events:
  • \"The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure Channel\"
  • SCHANNEL event 36887 is logged in the System event log with the description, \"A fatal alert was received from the remote endpoint. The TLS protocol defined fatal alert code is 20.​\"
Affected platforms:
  • Client: Windows 10, version 1903; Windows 10, version 1809; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10, version 1803; Windows 10, version 1709; Windows 10, version 1703; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2016; Windows 10, version 1607; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2015; Windows 8.1; Windows 7 SP1
  • Server: Windows Server, version 1903; Windows Server, version 1809; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server, version 1803; Windows Server, version 1709 ; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012; Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1; Windows Server 2008 SP2

Next Steps: Connections between two devices running any supported version of Windows should not have this issue when fully updated. There is no update for Windows needed for this issue. These changes are required to address a security issue and security compliance. For information, see KB4528489.

Advisory: Windows CryptoAPI certificate validation vulnerability
On January 14, 2020, Microsoft released security updates to address an elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) certificate validation issue in the Windows CryptoAPI. This vulnerability applies to all versions of the Windows 10 operating system, client and server. While we have not observed an attack exploiting this vulnerability, we recommend that you apply this update to all of your Windows 10 devices with priority. Here is what you need to know:
  • If you are running a supported version of Windows 10 and have automatic updates enabled, you are automatically protected and do not need to take any further action.
  • If you are managing updates on behalf of your organization, you should download the latest updates from the Microsoft Security Update Guide and apply those updates to your Windows 10 devices and servers as soon as possible.
If you are running an unsupported version of Windows 10, we recommend that you upgrade to the current version of Windows 10 to benefit from the latest security protections. For more information about this vulnerability, see the Microsoft Security Guidance for CVE-2020-0601 and the Microsoft Security Response Center blog, January 2020 Security Updates: CVE-2020-0601.
