Overview
- The long-running glitch that caused “update and shut down” to perform an “update and restart” is now resolved for supported Windows 11 releases.
- The fix is delivered in KB5067036 for Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2 and requires Build 26200.7019 or newer.
- A broader rollout of the fix is anticipated with the November Patch Tuesday updates, following its current optional status.
- Microsoft acknowledges the behavior also affected Windows 10, though this specific remediation applies to Windows 11.
- Update management changes continue as Microsoft simplifies titles and pledges to keep month–year in names, while other issues persist such as driver error 0x80070103 and false end‑of‑support notices on some Windows 10 editions.
