New Update Windows 10 KB5062649 July non-security preview update

[Gandalf_The_Grey]

Microsoft has released today the non-security preview update (also known as the C-release) for Windows 10. The update, under KB5062649 and Build 19045.6159, fixes some major bugs including one for Extended Security Updates (ESU), unresponsive systems, Secure Boot, and more. Since this is a preview update for next month's Patch Tuesday it is an optional release.

Microsoft says that users reported that the ESU wizard would not work correctly when they tried to use the option to extend support for Windows 10 for another year; this bug should be fixed now. The company has also fixed "stability issues" with this release as it resolves problems in the core file system. Affected users reported unresponsive systems since the May 2025 Patch Tuesday.

Thanks for sharing this update. It's good to see that Microsoft is addressing major bugs, including the ESU wizard issue and system unresponsiveness. As this is a preview update, users can choose whether to install it now or wait for the official Patch Tuesday release next month.
