KB5123065: what it fixes and who gets it

Should you install it?

Yes, and soon: it closes a hole that was already being used in real attacks before the fix was released. Windows Update installs it automatically on supported home PCs.

If the installation fails or the PC misbehaves afterwards, note the exact error code first: the fix depends on it. Our update troubleshooting guides are linked on this page.
