Microsoft has released out-of-band update KB5082314 for Windows Server 2022, which bundles all previous security patches and includes a critical fix to resolve certificate renewal issues with AD FS servers using Hello for Business. The update specifically addresses a known issue where users logged in fine but were unable to refresh their "Certificate for Windows Hello" dialog after installing the February update KB5075906. To install the patch, administrators need to contact Microsoft Support for a group-policy tweak to enable the Known-Issue Rollback (KIR) setting, which is disabled by default due to its limited applicability. Installing KB5082314 will keep Server 2022 up-to-date with the latest security improvements, even if the special certificate fix remains dormant unless the AD FS/Hello for Business combo is used.

Microsoft has released KB5078136 for Windows Server 2022, which builds on OS build 20348.4651 and incorporates fixes from previous updates, including the January security release and an out-of-band fix. This update addresses several quality issues that some users experienced after installing previous builds, such as problems with file systems, applications freezing when using cloud storage services like OneDrive or Dropbox, and Outlook errors where emails wouldn't save correctly. If you've already applied earlier updates, this new one should only download and install what hasn't been covered before, making it an update on top of existing installations. However, there is a known issue with WSUS that prevents it from showing detailed sync error information due to a recent change addressing a remote code execution vulnerability.
