Known issues in this update
Symptom Workaround After installing this update, Internet Explorer 11 may have authentication issues. This occurs when two or more people use the same user account for multiple, concurrent login sessions on the same Windows Server machine, including Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) and Terminal Server logons. Symptoms reported by customers include, but may not be limited to:
- Cache size and location show zero or empty.
- Keyboard shortcuts may not work properly.
- Webpages may intermittently fail to load or render correctly.
- Issues with credential prompts.
- Issues when downloading files.
Create unique user accounts so that two people don’t share the same user account when logging on to a Windows Server machine. Additionally, disable multiple RDP sessions for a single user account for a specific Windows Server.
Microsoft is working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.After installing this update on machines that have multiple audio devices, applications that provide advanced options for internal or external audio output devices may stop working unexpectedly. This issue occurs for users that select an audio output device different from the “Default audio device”. Examples of applications that may stop working include:
- Windows Media Player
- Realtek HD Audio Manager
- Sound Blaster Control Panel
As a temporary solution, change the output of the application to Default in the per-application audio-settings found under Settings > System > Sound> App Volume and device preferences.
Alternatively, select the “Default Audio Device” in the options provided by the application; please refer to the application’s user-manual for details.
For example, to set the Default Audio Device in Windows Media Player:
- Open Windows Media Player > Tools > Options > Devices.
- Select the device and choose Properties.
- On the next dialog, from the drop-down menu under Select the Audio Device, choose Default Audio Device from the list.
Microsoft is working on a resolution and estimates a solution will be available in late March 2019.[ADDED] After installing this update, MSXML6 causes applications to stop responding if an exception was thrown during node operations, such as appendChild(), insertBefore(), and moveNode().
Group Policy editor may also be affected when editing a Group Policy Object (GPO) that contains a Group Policy Preference for Internet Settings.Microsoft is working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release. [UPDATED 3/15] After installing this security update, Custom URI Schemes for Application Protocol handlers may not start the corresponding application for local intranet and trusted sites on Internet Explorer.

Microsoft is working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.[ADDED 3/15] After installing this update, there may be issues using the Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) to start a device from a Windows Deployment Services (WDS) server configured to use Variable Window Extension. This may cause the connection to the WDS server to terminate prematurely while downloading the image. This issue does not affect clients or devices that are not using Variable Window Extension. To mitigate the issue, disable the Variable Window Extension on WDS server using one of the following options:
Option 1:
Open an Administrator Command prompt and type the following:
Wdsutil /Set-TransportServer /EnableTftpVariableWindowExtension:No
Option 2:
Use the Windows Deployment Services UI.
- Open Windows Deployment Services from Windows Administrative Tools.
- Expand Servers and right-click a WDS server.
- Open its properties and clear the Enable Variable Window Extension box on the TFTP tab.
Option 3:
Set the following registry value to 0:
“HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WDSServer\Providers\WDSTFTP\EnableVariableWindowExtension”.
Restart the WDSServer service after disabling the Variable Window Extension.
Microsoft is working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.
