It is time for this month's optional non-security updates for Windows 11 and 10. Windows 10 is the first to receive April's C-update under KB5055612 (build number 19045.5796), which, slightly confusingly, contains security improvements to the Windows Kernel Vulnerable Driver Blocklist and a single fix for GPU paravirtualization support in Windows Subsystem for Linux 2.
You can download KB5055612 from Windows Update or the Microsoft Update Catalog. Keep in mind that today's release is optional, so feel free to skip it if you do not need or want anything from its changelog. Changes in KB5055612 will be included in the following mandatory Patch Tuesday updates.
