ISSUE: Edge Updates might Cause Microsoft Copilot App to Show up in Installed Apps
Date: April 26, 2024
Details: Updates to Edge browser version 123.0.2420.65, released on March 28, 2024 and later, might incorrectly install a new package (MSIX) called ‘Microsoft chat provider for Copilot in Windows’ on Windows devices. Resulting from this, the Microsoft Copilot app might appear in the Installed apps in Settings menu.
It is important to note that the Microsoft chat provider for Copilot in Windows does not execute any code or process, and does not acquire, analyze, or transmit device or environment data in any capacity.
This package is intended to prepare some Windows devices for future Windows Copilot enablement and is not intended for all devices. Although the component installed as part of this issue can cause the Microsoft Copilot app to be shown as part of the Installed apps, this component does not fully install or enable Microsoft Copilot.
As part of the upcoming resolution of this issue, the chat provider for Copilot in Windows component will be removed from devices where Microsoft Copilot is not intended to be enabled or installed. This includes most Windows Server devices.

Workaround or Fix: More details about the issue are available in our exclusive article. Microsoft is working on a resolution for all affected clients and servers. An upcoming version of Microsoft Edge is expected to remove or adjust the installation of this component on specific devices.
Resolution: This issue is now resolved with Edge browser updates released on April 26, 2024. Edge version 124.0.2478.67 removes the package ‘Microsoft chat provider for Copilot in Windows’ from all servers affected by this issue. The ‘Microsoft Copilot’ entry will not show in the Installed apps list in the Settings menu once the Edge browser is updated. An upcoming version of Microsoft Edge is expected to remove or adjust the installation of this component on specific client devices.
ISSUE: BitLocker might Incorrectly Receive a 65000 Error in MDMs
Date: October 31, 2023
Details: Using the FixedDrivesEncryptionType or SystemDrivesEncryptionType policy settings in the BitLocker configuration service provider (CSP) node in mobile device management (MDM) apps might incorrectly show a 65000 error in the “Require Device Encryption” setting for some devices in your environment. Affected environments are those with the “Enforce drive encryption type on operating system drives” or “Enforce drive encryption on fixed drives” policies set to enabled and selecting either “full encryption” or “used space only”. Microsoft Intune is affected by this issue but third-party MDMs might also be affected. Important: This issue is a reporting issue only and does not affect drive encryption or the reporting of other issues on the device, including other BitLocker issues.
Status: Mitigated
Workaround or Fix: To mitigate this issue in Microsoft Intune, you can set the “Enforce drive encryption type on operating system drives” or “Enforce drive encryption on fixed drives” policies to not configured.
Microsoft is working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.

Since Windows 11 22H2 upgrade in HP Pavilion 13-bb0075, I had faced a critical issue of “No Hard Drive Install” which was emerging anytime a day either on the first boot or reboot, even after updating the BIOS.
However, now since updating OS with the cumulative update KB5017389 (OS Build 22621.608) dated September 30, 2022, no recurrence of the issue has been noticed.
Hence now I am unable to sense whether the issue was caused by Windows 11 22H2 upgrade or not?
Another Bug is Cascading Menus does not appear sometime. Some programs are PowerISO, 7-Zip, Winrar
After installing this update, my file explorer crashes anytime I try to open it. now I have to use a third party file explorer to access my files.
I have the same problem as teni, Windows explorer keeps crashing. Sometimes it will open and note that is working on it and then fail other times it just fails and you can tell Explorer restarted. I have tried upgrading to 22H2 twice with the same results thought a Net update was the issue but now ???? All updates are done, and all DELL updates are done and same problem. Roll it back, no problem, so I’ll stay on 21H2 for awhile until Microsoft figures it out. Funny, I have a old File Manager App/program and it works just fine with 22H2
