Secure Boot uses certificates to ensure only trusted programs run during the boot process, and many certificates are due to expire in June, prompting Microsoft to update them across most Windows PCs. The certificate refresh began with January's updates and continues in February. New Secure Boot certificates target both Windows 11 and Windows 10, although Windows 10 machines must be enrolled in Extended Security Updates (ESU) to keep receiving these patches until October 2026. The February Patch Tuesday release also corrects feature bugs: Windows 11 fixes full-screen gaming and certain WPA3‑Personal Wi‑Fi connection issues; Windows 10 addresses Chinese font problems, graphics-processor issues, and custom File Explorer folder-name glitches.
