Windows 10 KB5046714: Resolve App Uninstall Issues Now!

Recently, Microsoft unveiled the optional KB5046714 Preview cumulative update for Windows 10 22H2, which encompasses six bug fixes, notably addressing an issue that hindered users from uninstalling or updating packaged applications.

This preview update is part of Microsoft’s schedule for “optional non-security preview updates,” typically rolled out at the end of each month. It provides Windows administrators an opportunity to test forthcoming fixes and features anticipated in the subsequent December Patch Tuesday.

In contrast to the regular Patch Tuesday updates, this preview does not include any security enhancements.

To install this update, Windows users should navigate to Settings, select Windows Update, and then manually click on ‘Check for Updates.’

As it’s an optional update, users will need to confirm their intention to install it by selecting the ‘Download and install’ link, as depicted in the accompanying image.
