Microsoft released optional July 2024 preview update KB5040525 for Windows 10 22H2 (build 19045.4717) that fixes a WDAC memory leak and app failures, addresses Windows Backup EFI partition backup failures, resolves Print Support and Universal Print client issues (including WPAD-related failures), and updates the Kernel Vulnerable Driver Blocklist to reduce BYOVD risk; the update is optional for testing and does not include security updates.
