The new KB5037765 security update for Windows Server 2019 is failing to install due to a known issue, resulting in 0x800f0982 errors. This problem is more likely to affect devices without en_us language pack support. While Microsoft works on a fix, an unofficial workaround involves installing the en-US language pack.

Based on the meeting notes, the key takeaways are:

– Microsoft has acknowledged a known issue causing the failure to install the KB5037765 security update for Windows Server 2019 with error code 0x800f0982. This issue is likely to affect devices that do not have en_us language pack support.
– Windows admins have reported widespread install failures for the May 2024 security update on Windows Server 2019 systems running non-English Windows installations.
– An unofficial workaround involves installing the en-US language pack on affected systems using the LPKSetup tool.
– Microsoft has fixed a known issue related to VPN connections across client and server platforms caused by the April 2024 Windows security updates.
– Additionally, the company has addressed a bug that caused domain controller reboots and NTLM authentication failures after installing last month’s Windows Server security updates.
