Today we want to report again about the update KB4346783 for Windows 10 version 1803 Spring Creators Update , because many users report significant problems with this update.
Microsoft already released the update KB4346783 on 08/30/2018 and it is also a cumulative update for Windows 10 version 1803. It raises the Windows build number to version 17134.254 . The update can be downloaded and installed via Windows Update and the Windows Update Catalog.
The update KB4346783 includes the following changes in the 1803 version of Windows 10.
- The KB4346783 update addresses a problem in Microsoft Foundation Class applications that can cause applications to flicker.
- Addresses an issue in which touch and mouse events were handled differently in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications that have a transparent overlay window.
- It eliminates a reliability problem in applications with extensive window nesting .
- Addresses issues in the Universal CRT that sometimes causes AMD64 FMOD to return an incorrect result on very large inputs.
- Addresses universal CRT issues that cause the _get_pgmptr () function to return an empty string and that isprint () returns TRUE for a tab when using the C locale.
- Addresses an issue in which Microsoft Edge or other UWP applications cannot perform client authentication when the private key is stored on a TPM 2.0 device.
- Enrolling or renewing computer certificates could cause problems after installing the April 2018 update, causing the installation to fail with an ” Access Denied ” error . This issue occurs when the registration process has a lower process ID (PID) than any process other than SYSTEM.
