Windows 10: Is this an official Windows update or not? - 2024-09 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows...

Hi,I'm hoping someone can answer this question for me before I install this update because I just found out on Monday of this week that I had two trojans masquerading as Windows updates lurking on my old hard drive that had been on my laptop for the past year and had to have a new hard drive installed. The two trojans also locked me out of my 14 year old external hard drive because of the hack and showed that I had no files on it. Needless to say, I had throw out my external hard drive and start all over again, plus pay for a new external hard drive on top of replacing the old internal hard dr

Cumulative updates for Windows - May 2024

We have multiple Windows 10 22H2 workstations that do not detect 2024-05 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5037768). If you run the Windows update list in powershell or click "Check for updates" we see the following:

KB5037771 134GB Windows 11, version 23H2

The KB listed appears to be related to the 2024-05 Cumulative Update for Windows 11. Why is this appearing on a Windows 10 machine and why won't the Windows 10 machine detect 2024-05 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5037768)? We have attempted the Windows Update reset script on affected already without resolution to this issue.
