Update KB5043076 for Windows 11 23H2-22H2
Cumulative Update KB5043076 raises the OS build for Windows 11 to 226×1.4169 and includes quality improvements and security patches. Here is the list of fixes:
[Windows Installer] When it repairs an application, the User Account Control (UAC) does not prompt for your credentials. After you install this update, the UAC will prompt for them. Because of this, you must update your automation scripts. Application owners must add the Shield icon. It indicates that the process requires full administrator access. To turn off the UAC prompt, set the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\
Microsoft\Windows\Installer\DisableLUAInRepair registry value to 1. The changes in this update might affect automatic Windows Installer repairs; see Application Resiliency: Unlock the Hidden Features of Windows Installer.
Details on the improvements can be found in the support article. This update is automatically downloaded and installed by Windows Update, but is also available in the Microsoft Update Catalog and via WSUS and WUfB. The Windows 11 Servicing Stack Update is integrated in the patch. Any problems caused by the update are listed in the support article.

Cumulative Update KB5043067 the OS build for Windows 11 to 22000.3197 and includes quality improvements and security patches, but no new operating system functions. It should be noted that support for the Home and Pro editions expired in October 2023 and only the Enterprise versions will be supplied with patches. Support for this Windows 11 version will end in October 2024. Here are the fixes:
