"On the eve of its Ignite conference, Microsoft has managed to break the first Extended Security Update (ESU) for many commercial Windows 10 customers. The November 11 update, KB5068781, fails to install on devices activated via the Microsoft 365 admin center, throwing a 0x800f0922 (CBS_E_INSTALLERS_FAILED) error message. "The issue is under investigation, and additional information will be shared as soon as it becomes available," said Microsoft. At the time of writing, there is no fix or workaround for the problem."
"This marks the second ESU failure in a week. On Thursday Microsoft issued an out-of-band patch after consumers reported enrollment failures. Ironically, the latest update included a fix for the October 14 release that incorrectly showed a message in the Windows Update Settings page: " Your version of Windows has reached the end of support". Microsoft's ESU program allows commercial customers to pay for continued security updates after Windows 10's free support ended on October 14."
The November 11 update KB5068781 fails to install on devices activated through the Microsoft 365 admin center, producing a 0x800f0922 (CBS_E_INSTALLERS_FAILED) error and currently lacking a fix or workaround. Microsoft states the issue is under investigation. This is the second ESU failure in a week after an out-of-band patch addressed prior enrollment problems. The update also included a fix for an October 14 release that incorrectly displayed an "end of support" message in Windows Update Settings. The ESU program allows commercial customers to pay for security updates after Windows 10's free support ended on October 14. Customers express frustration with reliability amid broader product and roadmap priorities.
