The Windows 10 22H2 February Update (KB5022834) has finally made it to everyone’s Windows Update. In this Patch Tuesday (“update of Tuesday”), as we call the main monthly changes of Microsoft, we have as main changes the correction of a bug that caused problems in the first login attempts, with the second one working, the solution to a problem that affected the cached “Fast Identity Online 2.0” (FIDO2) authentication data, and finally fixed a bug that affected the DNS (Domain Name System) suffix search list that does not have “parent domain” ( parent domain).
This is an automatic one, that is, if you do not select the download button in Windows Update, the installation will be carried out automatically sooner or later. For this reason, it is important to carefully check the changes applied by the update.
