Windows 11 installation media bug causes security update failures
On December 24, 2024, Microsoft reported that when media is created to include security updates released in October 2024 or November 2024 and Windows 11 version 24H2 is installed using media support, an issue has occurred in which the OS does not accept the security updates.
In addition, this problem does not occur on devices that have installed security updates via Windows Update or the Microsoft Update Catalog . In addition, according to overseas media BleepingComputer, this problem does not occur when installing Windows 11 version 24H2 using media that includes the latest December 2024 security update at the time of writing.
In response to this issue, Microsoft said, 'We are currently working to resolve this issue and will provide more information once it has been resolved.'
As a temporary measure, Microsoft is urging users to 'not install Windows 11, version 24H2 that includes the October 2024 or November 2024 security updates to prevent issues from occurring. Instead, make sure that the media you use to install Windows 11, version 24H2 includes security updates released on December 11, 2024 or later.'
