Good morning, I downloaded updates last Wednesday (Patch Tuesday), I am now on Build 19045 7663 Windows 10 22H2.The question is I can't see update KB5120249 in my "VIEW UPDATES". I have read I need this to change to the latest build (which I have got) so a little confused! I signed up last year for the ESU scheme which has been extended to Oct 2027. I have a couple of friends who are also having problems downloading KB5120249. I have suggested SCANNOW and IMAGE AND RESTORE HEALTH SCAN.I check my PC daily for updates and do regular maintenance

Hi again Brian.

If you open the Settings App and go to System - About.

If it is indicated you are now on Build No. 19045 7663 then your system is fully up to date and the August 11 KB5120249 has been successfully installed on your system.

If that update is not appearing in the installed update history section, that is nothing to worry about, it is just a glitch and will resolve itself with the next update, there is nothing further you need to do.

    If the device is already on Windows 10 22H2 build 19045.7663, then KB5120249 is already installed. That KB corresponds to the August 11, 2026 security update that brings Windows 10 22H2 to OS Build 19045.7663.

    A few points from the update information:

    1. KB5120249 is the update for build 19045.7663
      If the system shows 19045.7663, that matches the KB5120249 release.
    2. The update should normally install automatically through Windows Update
      Microsoft states this update is downloaded and installed automatically from Windows Update, or from Windows Update for Business according to policy.
    3. There are currently no known issues listed for KB5120249
      Microsoft says it is not currently aware of any issues with this update.
    4. The latest SSU is required
      Microsoft notes that the latest servicing stack update is required before applying Windows updates, and that not having the latest SSU can prevent a Windows update from being offered.

    For the current device, no further action is indicated if the build is already 19045.7663.

    For the friends who are not getting KB5120249:

    1. Confirm they are on Windows 10 22H2.
    2. Check whether the latest servicing stack update is installed.
    3. Use Windows Update first, since that is the standard delivery channel.
    4. If needed, the standalone package is available from the Microsoft Update Catalog.

    The ESU detail in the question cannot be verified from the provided support article for KB5120249, so the key point here is simply that build 19045.7663 means KB5120249 has been applied.

    Hi DaveM121, thanks for replying to my question. Although everything is OK shouldn't the KB5120249 be listed in my "VIEW UPDATES LIST"? I can't see it anywhere!
