[German<\/a>]Microsoft released update KB4478877 for Windows 10 V1607 on December 4, 2018. It was also announced that the bug will be fixed in the Media Player search in mid-December 2018. <\/p>\n

Update KB4478877 for Windows 10 V1607<\/h2>\n

\"\"Update KB4478877<\/a> for Windows 10 V1607 has been released on December 4, 2018 (the kb article dates from 12\/03\/2018). This update is only available for Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows 10 Education as well as Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC. All other Windows 10 V1607 SKUs – this includes Windows Server 2016 Standard Edition, Nano Server Installation and Windows Server 2016 Datacenter Edition – are not supported. The Nano Server installation option reached the end of support on October 9, 2018. The update only fixes one error:  <\/p>\n

\n

Addresses an issue that prevents the release of the on-demand Source Network Address Translation (SNAT) port allocated to a virtual machine (VM) after the SNAT port is no longer in use. As a result, the SNAT port becomes exhausted.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The installation of this update requires an installed Servicing Stack Update (SSU) KB4465659<\/a>. At the same time, an update for the Update Client is installed and the list of known problems contains three entries. This ranges from a .NET framework SQL error (4470809<\/a>) to a bug in the search for Windows Media Player to problems or hangs when processing end-user-defined characters (EUDC). Details can be found in the KB article<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fix for Media Player Seek Bar bug comes Mid Dec. 2018<\/h2>\n

The KB article<\/a> also contains information, when Microsoft intends to fix the error causes the search field in Windows Media Player no longer to work. <\/p>\n

\n

After installing this update, users may not be able to use the Seek Bar<\/strong> in Windows Media Player when playing specific files. This issue does not affect normal playback.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This bug is a common feature of all patches shipped for Windows 10 last month (see blog post Windows 10: Nov. 2018 Patches are causing Media Player-Bug<\/a>). In the description to the above error it says:<\/p>\n

\n

Microsoft is working on a resolution and estimates a solution will be available mid-December 2018.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Instead of the hint 'the update will come sometime' they have now given a time in mid-December 2018. Possibly the fix will come on December 11, 2018, because that's the regular patchday at Microsoft. (via<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
