Improvements and fixes
This update includes quality improvements. Key changes include:
- Addresses an issue that occurs when you enable per font end-user-defined characters (EUDC). The system will stop working and a blue screen will appear at startup. This is not a common setting in non-Asian regions.

- Addresses an issue that causes the Group Policy editor to stop responding when editing a Group Policy Object (GPO) that contains Group Policy Preferences (GPP) for Internet Explorer 10 Internet settings.
- Addresses an issue that may cause authentication issues for Internet Explorer 11 and other applications that use WININET.DLL. 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.
- [UPDATED 4/11] Addresses an issue that may cause compound document (OLE) server applications to display embedded objects incorrectly if you use the PatBlt API to place embedded objects into the Windows Metafile (WMF).
- Security updates to Windows Datacenter Networking, Windows Server, the Microsoft JET Database Engine, Windows Kernel, Windows Input and Composition, Microsoft Scripting Engine, Windows App Platform and Frameworks, Windows Storage and Filesystems, Microsoft Graphics Component, Windows Virtualization, Windows MSXML, Windows SQL components, and Microsoft Edge.

- [ADDED 4/15] Addresses an issue about application installation notifications on Microsoft HoloLens devices.
- [ADDED 4/15] Addresses an issue about the installation of sideloaded Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps from Windows Device Portal on Microsoft HoloLens. Sideloaded means the apps are not published in the Microsoft Store.
- [ADDED 4/15] Improves the efficiency of the environment data that Microsoft Azure Spatial Anchors use, which allows you to place spatial anchors in smaller physical locations in Microsoft HoloLens.

They actually fixed the font BSOD. But apparently it wouldn't have occured for me either way. PC have already checked for updates today so I will wait tomorrow. Yes, I don't touch that "check for updates" button. I have a long streak going on.
Explorer crashed twice when I hit the restart button.
All seems fine after a restart.
