2022-04 update for windows 11 for x64-based systems (kb4023057)

Summary

This update includes reliability improvements to Windows Update Service components in all editions of Windows 10, version 1507, 1511, 1607, 1703, 1709, 1803, 1809, 1903, 1909, 2004, 20H2, 21H1, 21H2, and Windows 11 (original release). It may take steps to free up disk space on your device if you do not have enough disk space to install Windows updates.

This update includes files and resources that address issues that affect the update processes in Windows that may prevent important Windows updates from being installed. These improvements help make sure that updates are installed seamlessly on your device, and they help improve the reliability and security of devices that are running Windows. 

Note: Microsoft Update Health Tools are automatically deployed to Windows 10, version 1809 and later Windows devices connected to Windows Update. You can also manually deploy Microsoft Update Health Tools, For more information, see Announcing Update Health Tools.

Important:  If your device is out of support, it is no longer receiving security updates from Microsoft and may become more vulnerable to security risks and viruses. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you update to the latest version of Windows. Each version of Windows is supported for 18 months. After support ends, you must update to a newer version of Windows to continue receiving Windows updates and security fixes. To learn more about the Windows lifecycle, see Windows 10 lifecycle fact sheet and the Windows 11 lifecycle fact sheet.

Notes: 

  • For feature update information for Windows 10, version 1809, 1903, 1909, 2004, and 20H2, see KB 5001716.

  • This update may request your device to stay awake longer to enable installation of updates.

    Note The installation will respect any user-configured sleep configurations and also your "active hours" when you use your device the most.

  • This update may try to reset network settings if problems are detected, and it will clean up registry keys that may be preventing updates from being installed successfully.

  • This update may repair disabled or corrupted Windows operating system components that determine the applicability of updates to your version of Windows.

  • This update may compress files in your user profile directory to help free up enough disk space to install important updates.

  • This update may reset the Windows Update database to repair the problems that could prevent updates from installing successfully. Therefore, you may see that your Windows Update history was cleared.

Important information about devices that have low disk space

When a Windows feature update is available for your device, you may see a message on the Windows Update settings page or elsewhere that asks you to free up disk space by removing files or applications that you do not use regularly. If you see this message, select Fix issues to free up disk space on your device.

After the Windows update has installed, some users may be prompted to restart their device. See Free up drive space in Windows for more information about other ways that you can free up disk space on your device.

Compressing files

To help free up disk space, this update may compress files in your user profile directory so that Windows Update can install important updates. When files or folders are compressed, they appear as having two blue arrows overlaid on the icon. Depending on your File Explorer settings, you may see icons that look larger or smaller. The following screen shot shows an example of these icons.

After you install the update, your files are restored to their original state, and the blue arrows disappear from the file icons in File Explorer. At any point during the update process, you should be able to access your files.

Microsoft Support notification

This update may display a notification on devices that are running low on space. If selected, this notification will open a Microsoft Support URL in the default browser with contact options for Microsoft support so you can easily get help freeing up space on your device.

Disk Cleanup

When this update is installed, new options for cleaning up disk space will be available to make it easier for you to update your device when it is low on disk space. If a feature update fails due to a low disk space, you can help increase storage space by using the Disk Cleanup tool or selecting Free up space now in Settings > Storage. These will help you remove unused files and free up storage space before a major feature update.
