Microsoft released a non-security preview update for Windows 11 21H2 and Windows 10 22H2 earlier today that fixes a bunch of issues. In addition to that, Microsoft has released a new OOBE (Out-of-box experience) improvement update for Windows 11 21H2.
The March OOBE update added Shim to improve compatibility with Component Object Model (COM) objects, and the April OOBE update also addressed compatibility issues, related to the registry.
Microsoft says the update will install automatically during OOBE if an Internet connection is available, requiring a restart of the device to complete the installation.
For the May OOBE update release, Microsoft simply mentioned that in order to improve the Windows 21H2 out-of-the-box experience, this update only applies to the Windows 11 OOBE process and is only available when the OOBE update is installed.
The official OOBE Update support documentation (under KB5026910) details the documentation provided with this release.
