[Gandalf_The_Grey]

Microsoft is rolling out an out-of-band update for Windows 11 version 24H2. Just yesterday, on June 10, 2025, Microsoft released this month's cumulative updates for all of its supported operating systems, including Windows 10. However, some Windows 11 users did not receive it due to a compatibility issue with certain games. Now, Microsoft is addressing the problem.

The company is rolling out KB5063060 (build number 26100.4351) to gamers on Windows 11 version 24H2. Today's update is aimed at users who have games with Easy Anti-Cheat, a service that is part of certain games to combat cheaters and improve security.

According to Microsoft, the June 2025 security update for Windows 11 version 24H2 has compatibility issues with Easy Anti-Cheat, which, in turn, causes the operating system to restart. Here is what Microsoft says in the release notes:

• [Fix for incompatibility issue with Easy Anti-Cheat] This update addresses an incompatibility issue where Windows might restart unexpectedly when opening games that use the Easy Anti-Cheat service. Easy Anti-Cheat automatically installs with certain games to enhance security and prevent cheating in multiplayer online PC games.

While the issue sounds rough, the bug likely did not affect many users. In the release notes, Microsoft adds that KB5060842, this month's security update for Windows 11, was not available to users with games that utilize Easy Anti-Cheat. Now, however, thanks to KB5063060, they can get the latest security updates and fixes. The update is cumulative, which means it contains all the updates that were released before.
