Microsoft today started rolling out a new patch to fix issues with Windows Update. The patch KB4056254 is supposed to fix the update issues on Windows 10 version 1703 (Creators Update) and older, including version 1507 (original Windows 10 RTM).

It’s worth mentioning that Microsoft released a similar patch earlier this year. If you have ever faced any weird problems with Windows Update, you might want to install the new patch on your system, but keep in mind that the update is offered to select devices only, and there’s no way to install it manually.

The update called Windows 10 update facilitation service (KB4056254) is aimed at some systems that previously experienced issues and prevented an upgrade.

“This update includes files and resources to address issues affecting background update processes in the Windows Update servicing stack. Maintaining Window Update service health and performance helps ensure that quality updates are installed seamlessly on your device and help to improve the reliability and security of devices running Windows 10,” Microsoft explains on the KB page linked above,” Microsoft said in a support page (http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4056254/windows-10-update-facilitation-service).

Microsoft says that only certain builds of Windows 10 Versions 1507, 1511, 1607, and 1703 will receive and require this update.
