Windows 10 remains one of the most robust versions of the operating system, which is why so many users see no reason to switch to Windows 11. However, this month’s KB5053606 update is proving problematic and causing concern for Windows 10 users, reports Windows Latest.
For starters, some users aren’t able to install the update in the first place, with the installation process failing with error codes like 0x80070020. For others, the installation takes an unusually long time, which is out of the ordinary for a small update that doesn’t bring any new features. Still other users are finding that the update installs even though automatic updates are disabled for their system. (It’s worth noting, however, that KB5053606 is an important security update. As such, Windows 10 is supposed to install it automatically.)

For the rest who are able to install KB5053606, that’s when the real problems start. Some have complained about icons disappearing from the taskbar, while others have mentioned that individual customizations to the desktop are being reset to factory settings. Windows 10 is also apparently slowing to a crawl and sometimes getting a delay with keyboard input, resulting in a sluggish experience.
Windows 10 PCs that are still being used in the corporate sector are also experiencing printer problems. Windows Latest quotes one user as saying: “Our clients got KB5053606 yesterday and most could work just fine today, until they did a restart. After a restart, something in the user profile seems to be broken. Print spooler has many issues, like slow loading, programs crashing, and no passthrough into Citrix.”
On the update’s support page, Microsoft has acknowledged the issues with Citrix and USB printers, but none of the other problems. There are no known solutions yet, so if you’re affected, you’ll have to wait for a fix.
