Avoid creases on your device by checking which version of Windows 10 you have.

Time to update Windows 10

Have you checked that your Windows 10 has been updated to the latest version? If you have not updated after November 2019 (version 1909), you will soon lose support and maintenance for your version.

 

Microsoft will end technical support for this release as early as next month. This means that any technical bugs will not be fixed and you may miss out on security-related updates.

 

Fortunately, it is completely free to update to a newer version as the OS itself has long been more or less free with infinite time to upgrade from older versions. You may have received a reminder on your computer to update already, otherwise, you can check which version you have yourself.

 

By the way, Microsoft tonight released the KB5001330 update for the latest, stable Windows 10 version.
This is corrected:

 

• Addresses an issue in which a principal in a trusted MIT realm fails to obtain a Kerberos service ticket from Active Directory domain controllers (DC). This occurs on devices that installed Windows Updates that contain CVE-2020-17049 protections and configured PerfromTicketSignature to 1 or higher. These updates were released between November 10, 2020, and December 8, 2020. Ticket acquisition also fails with the error, “KRB_GENERIC_ERROR”, if callers submit a PAC-less Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) as an evidence ticket without providing the USER_NO_AUTH_DATA_REQUIRED flag.
  
  

• Addresses an issue with security vulnerabilities identified by a security researcher. Because of these security vulnerabilities, this and all future Windows updates will no longer contain the RemoteFX vGPU feature. For more information about the vulnerability and its removal, see CVE-2020-1036 and KB4570006. Secure vGPU alternatives are available using Discrete Device Assignment (DDA) in Windows Server LTSC releases (Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2019) and Windows Server SAC releases (Windows Server, version 1803 and later versions).
  
  

• Addresses a potential elevation of privilege vulnerability in the way Azure Active Directory web sign-in allows arbitrary browsing from the third-party endpoints used for federated authentication. For more information, see CVE-2021-27092 and Policy CSP – Authentication.
  
  

• Security updates to Windows App Platform and Frameworks, Windows Apps, Windows Input and Composition, Windows Office Media, Windows Fundamentals, Windows Cryptography, the Windows AI Platform, Windows Kernel, Windows Virtualization, and Windows Media.

 

 

How often do you need to check this?

Windows 10 makes regular updates twice a year, one in the spring and one in the fall, and they often include important improvements.

 

In the latest version (v. 2004), which was recently released, they fixed a problem that caused devices to stop working if you deleted a OneDrive folder. Quite so significant, in other words. Read more about the improvements that came with the latest version of Windows 10.

 

However, you do not have to worry about the Windows 10 core itself becoming outdated immediately: a sequel is not expected until 2025 at the earliest.
