Starting from Last April , when install Tuesday Patches , it's completed successfully but undo any change after reboot, when check Staged , I have find a lot of packages has stuck on Staged , I have remove all of them and install KB5123239 using Download KB , but the same issue still existing, and trying to install it using CAB file , but the same issue still existing, and trying to reinstall it after uninstall the EDR , but the problem still existing otherwise , after reboot and check installed updates, I have find this KB it's shown as it's installed List of all Staged Pacakges : I have follow the below technote to remove them https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-server/installing-updates-features-roles/error-0x800f0922-installing-windows-updates and then trying to install it using cab file anyway, I'm trying to Exclude Drivers in updates. After Undo changes (first picture above )after reboot, the control panel was shown this KB !!! this KB is related to patch in 2024 , and I'm already remove all staged packages !!!

Hi everyone, I'm a student of IT systems administration and I'm practicing with a Windows Server 2025 domain controller in a virtual machine on my laptop. The DC has two network adapters, one in NAT mode to have internet and another one in an internal network 192.168.10.0/24 where I have a Windows 11 client joined to the domain.49Views0likes0CommentsRDS stops responding after Sept. 2026 security updates
Hi All, I have one last Windows Server 2012 R2 ESU VM in PROD, used for a legacy SQL Server / Video / Audio solution. Since installing KB5123066: RDP cannot connect to the VM The Windows Desktop is unstable File Explorer is unresponsive Windows Update services will not start As per: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/resolved-issues-windows-8.1-and-windows-server-2012-r2#4981msgdesc Since Windows Update services won't start, we can't deploy the fix (KB5129243) through normal means. Attempts so far: KIR (Known Issue Rollback) via GPO — deployed the Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 KB5123066 260911_18477 Known Issue Rollback.msi, scoped a GPO to the VM with the corresponding policy set to Disabled, ran gpupdate /force. No change in behavior. Uninstall KB5123066 in Safe Mode with Networking — fails, Windows rolls back to KB5123066. Install KB5129243 in Safe Mode with Networking — fails, Windows rolls back. Offline DISM servicing from WinPE (booted from Server 2012 R2 ISO): DISM /Image:C:\ /Get-Packages shows several RollupFix package versions in inconsistent states — one Superseded, one Install Pending, one Staged, all dated the same day — suggesting a stuck servicing transaction from the repeated rollback attempts. DISM /Image:C:\ /Cleanup-Image /RevertPendingActions completes successfully and queues a revert for next boot. On reboot, the VM sits at "Getting Windows ready / Don't turn off your computer" and eventually returns to the same symptoms — no change. Re-running Get-Packages afterward returns Error 3017: The requested operation failed. A system reboot is required to roll back changes made — the offline image is apparently now stuck mid-transaction and won't let us query or modify it further. A second full boot cycle triggers the same "Getting Windows ready" screen again, but symptoms remain unchanged afterward and error 3017 persists. We do have backups of the VM prior to KB5123066, but it is not a straightforward rollback due to SQL Db/Transaction log restores as well for the AV solution (which is out of support). Given the CBS transaction now appears stuck (error 3017 not clearing even after two full boot/revert cycles), I suspect further offline DISM attempts risk making things worse rather than better. Before we escalate to Microsoft Support for Business as the KB suggests, has anyone resolved this same stuck-transaction state, or found a way to clear error 3017 on an offline 2012 R2 image without a pre-patch backup to fall back on? Thanks in advance. SteveSolved1KViews0likes1CommentWindows Server 2025 – DHCP Failover con dos controladores de dominio: el ámbito no se sincroniza
Hola buenas a todos. Recientemente he configurado una implementación de DHCP Failover entre dos controladores de dominio con Windows Server 2025 (DC1 y DC2), utilizando el modo Hot Standby. La configuración del ámbito se replica correctamente después de la configuración inicial, pero después de realizar cualquier cambio manual en las opciones del ámbito (por ejemplo, modificar la puerta de enlace predeterminada o añadir una nueva reserva), los cambios no se sincronizan automáticamente con el servidor asociado. Cada vez tengo que ejecutar manualmente «Replicar ámbito». Ambos servidores están en la misma subred y pueden comunicarse sin problemas. ¿Se trata de un problema conocido de DHCP Failover en Windows Server 2025, o hay alguna configuración específica que pueda estar pasando por alto para habilitar la replicación automática de los cambios realizados en el ámbito? Gracias.120Views0likes1CommentWindows Server 2025 – DHCP Failover con dos controladores de dominio: el ámbito no se sincroniza

Users are able to perform interactive/manual logons successfully with their current credentials. The failures are also generated outside normal working hours. The Client Address in the 4771 events corresponds to the workstation/IP of the respective user. We have observed many different Client Addresses (at least 15 different source IPs), so the failures are not originating from a single host. As an initial troubleshooting step, we executed: klist purge for one affected user. The Kerberos ticket cache was cleared successfully, but the Event ID 4771 failures continued afterward with no noticeable change. Previous guidance suggested checking for stale/stored credentials, scheduled tasks, Windows services, Credential Manager entries, mapped resources, proxy authentication, or background applications that might be attempting authentication with outdated credentials. Another recommendation was to use Sysmon on an affected workstation and correlate outbound Kerberos traffic on port 88 with the timestamp of the 4771 event in order to identify the process or executable generating the request. Before making changes or deploying additional monitoring software in the client's environment, we would like to determine the safest and most appropriate troubleshooting approach. Given that: interactive logons work normally; 0x18 failures occur for many users; each user's Client Address generally corresponds to their own workstation; the issue occurs across many different workstations; and clearing the Kerberos ticket cache did not change the behavior, what would be the recommended Microsoft troubleshooting method to identify the exact process, service, application, or stored credential generating these failed Kerberos pre-authentication requests? Thank you.71Views0likes0Comments
