We're a week out from Microsoft's regular monthly Patch Tuesday release, but the company is now pushing out a small fix for Fall Creators Update PCs. The update ticks the build number up to version 16299.251 and includes a single fix related to USB devices (via Neowin).
Here's what's new, from Microsoft:
Addresses an issue in which some USB devices and onboard devices, such as a built-in laptop camera, keyboard, or mouse, stop working. This may occur when the Windows Update servicing stack incorrectly skips installing the newer version of some critical drivers in the cumulative update and uninstalls the currently active drivers during maintenance.
Microsoft also cites a handful of known issues in this build, including that the fix may not be available to computers running antivirus software that hasn't been updated with a specific registry key. Some devices may also fail to start after applying the update. For more, check out Microsoft's full release notes.
If you're on the Fall Creators Update, you should be able to grab the latest cumulative update via Windows Update now. It's also available as a manual download at the Microsoft Update Catalog site.
