Microsoft previously released the latest KB5028244 monthly C version non-security update. However, this update has brought many problems, such as issues related to UWP and Win32, BitLocker, printers, etc.
Microsoft has now confirmed that this version has a critical bug affecting video codecs and that Windows 11 is also affected. In addition, there is a bug in this version that prevents ClickOnce applications from working properly.
Microsoft ClickOnce is a software deployment technology, which is a self-updating application program based on Windows. These applications can be installed and run with minimal user interaction. The client has to be reinstalled.
According to reports, after installing KB5028244 (19045.3271), you may be prompted to install when you open an application based on ClickOnce deployment, even if the ClickOnce application is successfully installed and marked as “trusted”.
Microsoft said that to temporarily resolve the issue, the affected ClickOnce application can be uninstalled and reinstalled again.
Alternatively, this issue can also be resolved by using a Known Issue Rollback (KIR), but it may take up to 24 hours for this to apply to consumer and unmanaged enterprise devices.
Microsoft also mentions that enterprise-managed devices that have installed the affected update and encounter this issue can be resolved by installing and configuring a special group policy.
