Microsoft outs one of the last Windows 10 recovery updates KB5065918, KB5065307, KB5065845

At the cusp of Windows 11 25H2, Microsoft finally is letting some users download and install Windows 11 version 24H2 as it recently removed a safeguard hold upgrade block. The company noted that the latest September 2025 Patch Tuesday update for Windows 11 (KB5065426, KB5065431) delivered the necessary bug fix.

Typically alongside the Patch Tuesday updates, Microsoft also releases dynamic updates. However this time Microsoft has skipped updates for Windows 11 and has only released it for Windows 10, probably one of the last. They need to be installed alongside the Windows 10 (KB5065429 / KB5065428 / KB5065427 / KB5065430) September 2025 Patch Tuesday.

For those who may not know, dynamic updates bring improvements to the Windows Recovery in the form of Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) updates, also called Safe OS updates, as well as to the Setup binaries in the form of Setup updates.

These Dynamic Update packages are meant to be applied to existing Windows images prior to their deployment. These packages include fixes to Setup.exe binaries, SafeOS updates for Windows Recovery Environment, and more. Dynamic Updates also help preserve Language Pack (LP) and Features on Demand (FODs) content during the upgrade process. VBScript, for example, is currently an FOD on Windows 11 24H2.

This time no Setup update was released as there were only Recovery updates.
