Yesterday, Microsoft released the new cumulative update KB4019472 for Windows 10 version 1607. As usual, the new patch brings a few system improvements and a bunch of bug fixes. It also changes the system version from 14393.1066  to 14393.1198.

As this is a cumulative update, you’ll get all the previously-released system improvements, in case you’ve missed any of the past cumulative updates.

As for the bug fixes that come with this update, the list is actually pretty long. The biggest highlight is probably the workaround for the issue where the Settings app pages don’t display correctly. Furthermore, update KB4019472 also fixes the problem with Windows Defender blocking other updates.

Along with bug fixes and system improvements, a few system features have been updated, like Internet Explorer 11. Additionally, the new update also brings security updates for some built-in features.

Here’s the complete changelog of the update:

  • “Addressed issue where the PC Settings pages do not display the correct options after the installation of KB3213986 and a language pack.
