UPDATED 2\/11\/2025:<\/strong> Microsoft is now rolling out Windows 10 build 19045.5487 (KB5051974) as part of the February 2025 update for version 22H2, which includes the new Outlook app and fixes for virtual memory, IME, NFC, USB Print, and screen capture. (Windows 11 22H2 is getting build 19044.5487 with the same KB5051974 update number.)<\/p>\n

According to the official changes<\/a> (Microsoft notes from the Release Preview Channel<\/a>), build 19045.5435 for Windows 10 22H2 replaces the Mail app with the new Outlook experience already available on Windows 11<\/a>. You can block the new Outlook app<\/a> from installing automatically by modifying the Registry.<\/p>\n

Also, this update now shows weather information in the calendar. To turn on this option, open Settings<\/strong> > Time & Language<\/strong> and turn on the “Weather”<\/strong> toggle under the “Calendar Events” section. You will also find two on the page, including “Feature holiday & events”<\/strong> and “Holiday illustrations.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once you turn on the features, you will notice information for weather, holidays, and holiday graphics in the “Calendar” interface when clicking the “time and date” area in the System Tray.<\/p>\n

If you can’t find the settings, it’s possible to enable the “Calendar events” section (via @PhantomOfEarth<\/a>) using the ViveTool<\/a> and running vivetool \/enable \/id:51858330,48433719,49453572<\/code> command. (This command may or may not work for everyone.)<\/p>\n

In addition, this Windows 10<\/a> non-security update fixes various issues with virtual memory, causing apps to fail, and addresses a problem.<\/p>\n

When using the Chinese Pinyin input method editor (IME), Bing will stop giving automatic suggestions. This update also fixes a problem preventing NFC from reading cards, addresses print spooler issues<\/a> with the USB Print and IPP Over USB, and fixes the Capture Service and Snipping Tool<\/a> to stop responding.<\/p>\n

Finally, this release updates the list of drivers at risk for Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attacks.<\/p>\n

Older versions of Windows 10<\/h2>\n

In addition, Microsoft is releasing updates available for older operating system versions, including 1809, 1607, and 1507.\u00a0For example, the company is rolling out the update KB5052000 for version 1809<\/a>, bumping the build number to 17763.6893 with some fixes regarding Microsoft Edge IE mode, Windows Kernel Vulnerable Driver Blocklist file, and Digital\/Analog converter (DAC).<\/p>\n

Windows 10 1607 receives the update KB5052006<\/a>, which bumps the version to build 14393.7785 and resolves a number of USB problems with the operating system.<\/p>\n

Finally, Windows 10 1507 is getting the update KB5052040<\/a>, which increases the version to build 10240.20915 and introduces some security fixes.<\/p>\n

Cumulative update installation<\/h2>\n

If you want to download and install Windows 10 build 19045.5435, you can force the update from Settings<\/strong> > Update & Security<\/strong> > Windows Update<\/strong>, turn on the “Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available”<\/strong> toggle switch and click the “Check for updates”<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n

If you prefer manually installing the February 2025 update<\/a> for Windows 10 22H2 and 21H2, download it from the Microsoft Update Catalog website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you encounter issues after applying this cumulative update, you can uninstall it using these instructions<\/a> to revert to the previous version of the operating system.<\/p>\n

Originally, this update was available as the Windows 10 build 19045.5435 (KB5050081) in the Release Preview Channel of the Windows Insider Program, but now, it’s rolling out as an optional install as build 19045.5440 with the same KB number in the Stable Channel. On February 11, the update becomes build 19045.5487 for version 22H2 and build 19044.5487 for version 21H2, but both builds have the same KB5051974 number.<\/p>\n
