The following problems are already known, which can occur through the installation of the update KB4489899.
Problem 1:
After installing this update, authentication problems may occur with IE 11. This occurs when two or more people use the same user account for multiple concurrent logon sessions on the same Windows Server computer, including Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) and Terminal Server logons. Symptoms reported by customers include:
- Cache size and location are zero or empty.
- Keyboard shortcuts may not work properly.
- Web pages may not load or render properly.
- Credential problems
- Problems downloading files.
The following workaround is offered for this problem.
Create unique user accounts so that two people do not share the same user account when they log on to a Windows Server computer. Also disable multiple RDP sessions for a single user account for a specific Windows server. Microsoft is working on a solution and will provide an update in an upcoming version.
Problem 2:
After installing this update on computers with multiple audio devices, applications that offer advanced options for internal or external audio output devices may no longer function properly. This problem occurs for users who choose an audio output device other than the default audio device. Examples of applications that may no longer work are:
- Windows Media Player
- Realtek HD Audio Manager
- Sound blaster control panel
The following workaround is offered for this problem.
As a temporary solution, select the “standard audio device” in the options provided by the application. See the application user guide for more information.
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.
- In the next dialog box, from the drop-down menu under Select audio device, select Standard audio device from the list.
- You can then send audio data from the application to the desired audio device in the audio settings of the respective application under Settings> System> Sound> App volume and device settings.
Microsoft is working on a solution and estimates that a solution will be available in late March 2019.
