  • First Windows 10 ESU Patch Tuesday Fails for Some as Microsoft Investigates 0x800f0922
    November 18, 2025, 11:50 PM EST. Microsoft's first Windows 10 Extended Security Update (ESU) patch, KB5068781, fails to install on devices activated via the Microsoft 365 admin center, delivering error 0x800f0922 (CBS_E_INSTALLERS_FAILED). The issue is under investigation, with no fix yet, marking the second ESU failure in a week after an out-of-band enrollment patch. The ESU program lets commercial customers pay for continued security updates after Windows 10's end of support. As Ignite unfolds, Microsoft is expected to address reliability and stability concerns rather than new features, even as executives tout AI with Copilot. Windows 10 users should monitor for updates and potential workarounds while Microsoft investigates.
  • Free Windows 10 security patches extended to October 2026 - how to enroll
    November 18, 2025, 11:48 PM EST. Microsoft is extending free security updates for Windows 10 through October 2026 via Extended Security Updates (ESU). For personal devices, you can enroll at no cost using a Microsoft account. The ESU subscription can be applied to up to 10 PCs signed in with the same account. Eligible editions are Windows 10 version 22H2 Home, Pro, Pro Education, and Workstation with the latest cumulative update installed; Enterprise and Education editions are not eligible. Devices must not be joined to an Active Directory domain, Entra, or managed by MDM. You must be signed in with an administrator account to enroll. Once activated, you can sign out and the PC will continue receiving updates through Oct 13, 2026. This avoids hardware refresh while keeping security patches current, delivered automatically on Patch Tuesday.

  • First Windows 10 ESU Update Fails on Company-Licensed PCs, Microsoft Investigates 0x800f0922
    November 18, 2025, 11:44 PM EST. Microsoft is investigating a bug that prevents the first Windows 10 ESU update (KB5068781) from installing on devices with a company license. Reports show the update appears to install but after a restart it rolls back with error 0x800f0922. The issue does not affect consumers using private licenses, and Microsoft has not announced a patch or workaround yet. The root cause appears tied to the activation of Windows subscriptions via the Microsoft 365 Admin Center. Regular Windows 10 users can still receive the ESU update automatically once their device is registered, resulting in build number 19045.6575. No workaround is currently available. The ESU update remains a critical security update now that support for Windows 10 has ended.
  • Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra gets early Black Friday cut with big discounts
    November 18, 2025, 11:42 PM EST. Samsung is rolling out early Black Friday deals on the Galaxy S25 Ultra with up to $700 instant trade-in credit and six months of Google AI Pro, though you can't stack them. All three storage tiers get $350 off: the 512GB at $1,069.99 (was $1,419.99), and the 1TB at $1,309.99 (was $1,659.99). The phone features a 6.9-inch QHD+ display, 12GB RAM, embedded S Pen, and the overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite with a 200MP main camera and 100x Space Zoom. Our take: a big, capable phone with long-term support (seven-year software updates). A base price dip to $949.99 makes it competitive against rivals. If you want up-to-date Galaxy software and S Pen, act fast-these deals may not last.
