Microsoft started rolling out a Cumulative Update for Windows 10 version 1903 recently. It includes fixes for issues reported on the Windows Hello and some features of the Microsoft Edge.

A cumulative update practically means a list of hotfixes addressing bugs encountered on various apps and features of an operating system. As for the latest Cumulative Update (KB4505903) for Windows 10 version 1903 officially released last Friday, the highlight fixes provided for issues observed on the Windows Hello, Microsoft Edge functions, Bluetooth device, and Start menu among others.

Windows 10 latest update: Most anticipated fixes

Since the Windows 10 version 1903 was released earlier this year, there were reports of the Windows Hello not working properly after initiating a restart. Cumulative Update KB4505903 should fix that. Several bugs were also reported on the Microsoft Edge browser where users were not able to use its PDF-related functions such as printing and opening a file. The same update shall also fix those.

There were cases where users were not able to change the display brightness after opening their computers from Sleep or Hibernate mode. Meanwhile, others were unable to turn their computers to Sleep mode due to active apps that use the Bluetooth device. Both these problems are also addressed by installing the Windows 10 cumulative update KB4505903. The Start menu should also function properly for new users once the group additional update is installed.

How to install Windows 10 cumulative update KB4505903

Part of the changes issued through Windows 10 version 1903 was improving the process of downloading and installing future updates. As usual, users can open Settings through its icon on the lower left part of the Start menu. From there, open the Update & Security menu. Once a device is ready to install Windows 10 cumulative update KB4505903, users should see the message “Additional updates available” in the Windows Update tab.

Aside from the option to adjust the “active hours” for updates installation, users can still opt to “pause” updates for up to 35 days. However, after that period, Microsoft notes, “When you reach the pause limit, your device will need to get new updates before you can pause again.”
