Windows 10: Windows 10 KB5014699 is now available – what’s new and fixed

Windows 10 KB5014699 is now available for users in the production channel. The cumulative update apparently doesn’t come with major changes or improvements, but there are several fixes. Direct download links for Windows 10 KB5014699 offline installers are also available on Microsoft Update Catalog.

KB5014699 is a security cumulative update and it is available as part of the June 2022 Patch Tuesday cycle. Since Windows 10 is no longer the primary operating system for Microsoft, you won’t find any big changes in the latest update or forthcoming cumulative releases.

Of course, Microsoft has fixed several bugs, including an issue where certain apps like Outlook or Excel won’t launch. Another bug has been fixed where Internet Explorer mode in Microsoft Edge won’t function properly and users will run into issues with the window frame.

As we reported recently, Windows 10 users have reported a nasty bug that causes apps to crash with unhelpful messages. As a result, some folks have paused their Windows Updates in a bid to minimize app crashes. The bug happens when the user opens their favourite app with .NET Framework and it only affects folks who have the latest updates.

Thankfully, Microsoft has finally fixed the remaining app compatibility issues and most apps should just run fine on Windows 10.

If you check for updates, you’ll see either of the update alerts depending on the version of Windows 10:

2022-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 21H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5014699)

Or

2022-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 21H1 for x64-based Systems (KB5014699)
