Microsoft released optional preview update KB5040527 for Windows 11 (22H2 and 23H2) addressing backup failures on EFI systems, an upgrade failure (0x80070005) in LicenseAcquisition, WDAC memory leaks and policy application bugs, printing-related issues, and additions to the kernel vulnerable driver blocklist to reduce BYOVD risk; the update is available via Windows Update or the Microsoft Update Catalog.
