There is a Security-only Update for those with Win7 ESU subscriptions.
There is no September IE11 CU for Win7 ESU subscriptions.
September Rollup KB5017361 Download 32-bit or 64-bit for those with Win7 ESU subscriptions.
You must have at least the August 2020 Servicing Stack KB4570673 previously installed to receive these updates).
There is a Sept 2022 Servicing Stack KB5017397 – Download 32-bit or 64-bit for those with Win7 ESU subscriptions.

****** UPDATE: ********
Microsoft has released a new ESU Licensing Preparation Package KB5016892 for the extension of Win7/Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 ESU on Aug 25, 2022. This is for the extension of the ESU into 2023 after the current one expires. Requires SHA-2 KB4474419 (9/23/2019 or later) and SSU KB4490628 (3/12/2019).
There is a Sept, 2022 Servicing Stack KB5017398 – Download 32-bit or 64-bit for Win8.1
AskWoody experts:
Does the new ESU Licensing Preparation Package KB5016892 for the extension of Win7/Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 ESU that was released by Microsoft on August 25, 2022, have to be installed prior to installing this month’s ESU updates or has this been subsequently rolled into the ESU for September?
The confusion ensues and enquiring minds want to know.
Thank you, as always, for your great wisdom, Abbodi Wan Kenobi.
As a follow up, is there a way to verify the new ESU Licensing Preparation Package KB5016892 has successfully been installed if you choose to not install it as a standalone update and instead opt for the monthly rollup option?
Sorry for the delay in replying, but I just had an opportunity to run this command now.
Here’s the text of the output:
Client-ESU-Year1
Client-ESU-Year2
Client-ESU-Year3
Client-ESU-Year4
Client-ESU-Year5
Client-ESU-Year6
Client-FES-ESU-Year1
Client-FES-ESU-Year2
Client-FES-ESU-Year3
Client-FES-ESU-Year4
Client-FES-ESU-Year5
Client-FES-ESU-Year6
OCUR
So, all looks good and ready for years 4, 5 and 6.
Thanks again, @abbodi86, for your assistance.
One other quick question though, what does OCUR at the end of the above output stand for in this context?
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/desktop/mstv/ocur-devices
something related to Media Center
Interesting.
I tried to look up OCUR before asking my question and the Media Centre thing kept coming up. I thought that couldn’t possibly be related to the further three year extension of ESU’s for Win 7/Server 2008 R2 SP1 but it appears that indeed was not the case
I thought OCUR was instead some top secret/convoluted Microsoft acronym because, you know, they are Microsoft after all.

First report of a problem with this month’s patching:
kb5017308 W10 Sept CU seems to be breaking created shortcuts within GPO:
Uninstalling the CU fixes the issue for those who have created shortcuts and run into problems (more geared to business than homeusers)
Gborn has also blogged further on the subject.
First report of a problem with this month’s patching: kb5017308 W10 Sept CU seems to be breaking created shortcuts within GPO: …
After reading Gunter Born’s blog post <here> I’m not really clear on the scope of the this problem. From that blog:
“… After September updates, creating two shortcuts on the users desktop via GPO within the domain no longer works reliably.
After a GPUPDATE /force on the client, one of the two shortcuts created by the GPO disappears. After another manual call of GPUPDATE /force it is available again and disappears again independently (after the default GPUPDATE interval). This game can be played on as an endless loop…“
That blog post mentions Enterprise / Education editions of Windows 10 and 11, and it sounds like desktops shortcuts are corrupted on the client computer when third-party software updates are pushed out from a remote server. Does this problem only occur in a business environment where client computers are connected to a LAN? I’m not a system admin and have no idea how user policies (GPOs) are used to create desktop shortcuts.

Just updated my machines w/o issue!
All three machines got the same updates:

KB5017308 KB5016705 KB5017022
Hi RetiredGeek:
What is the KB5016705 update that was installed on all your Win 10 v21H2 machines?
You didn’t provide a description and I couldn’t find any information on this update when I searched the Microsoft Update Catalog.
———–
Dell Inspiron 5584 * 64-bit Win 10 Pro v21H2 build 19044.1889 * Firefox v104.0.2 * Microsoft Defender v4.18.2207.7-1.1.19600.3 * Malwarebytes Premium v4.5.14.210-1.0.1751 * Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.6979
You see it when you dism, you won’t see it on WU or in MU catalog.
As an aside I personally thing sfc/dism is overkill given the number of times that they’ve triggered a non fatal issue that we had to ignore.

Imacri,
I’m a little baffled also, here’s why.
My WinVer program returns this:
But View Update History returns this:
Go figure. They have always returned the same information before.
Note: I did find one result of a user who couldn’t boot after that update on the MS Forums.
I went back and looked at the other 2 machines and I truly must have been out to lunch when I put the first post together.
Now you have accurate view of what I got or didn’t get as the case may be. However, as stated before ALL machines are running fine!
Sorry for the confusion!
I’m a little baffled also, here’s why.
According to Microsoft’s Official Description, KB5017500 actually contains two “completely different” KB updates for .NET.
• CU for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8 for Windows 10 Version 21H2 (KB5017022)
• CU for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8.1 for Windows 10 Version 21H2 (KB5017025)
So, while the update history shows KB5017500 as having been installed (it was downloaded and successfully ran), your WinVer program, which shows which updates were “actual installed” by KB number, shows KB5017022 was installed but KB5017025 wasn’t (i.e. since your PCs don’t have .NET 4.8.1, the “second part” of KB5017500 wasn’t installed.)
For those who may be interested here’s the PowerShell code I used to populate the tab on my program:
$HFFmt = @{Expression={ ($_.InstalledOn).ToString("yyyy/MM/dd")}; Label="Installed On"; Width=12}, @{Expression={$_.HotFixID}; Label="Hot Fix ID"; Width=10}, @{Expression={$_.CSName}; Label="Computer"; Width=14}, @{Expression={$_.Description}; Label="Description"; Width=35} $x = Get-HotFix $RetVal = $x | Sort-Object -Descending -Property InstalledOn | Format-Table $HFFmt | Out-String "$RetVal"
Note: the Get-Hotfix cmdlet is not my creation it is in the PSWindowsUpdate Module.
“the new PowerToys Text tool is da bomb!”
Are you referring to the ‘Text Extractor’ ??

Windows 11 Pro Version 21H2 (OS Build 22000.978)
KB5017328 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 for x64-based Systems
KB5017497 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5, 4.8 and 4.8.1 for Windows 11 for x64
KB890830 Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool x64 – v5.105
The B side of my dual boot also got
KB5017903 .NET Core 3.1.29 Security Update for x64 Client
No hiccups.
Did a win10 and 11 and all went well. Just had a call from a client that after rebooting his win10 pro after update lost his ability to use his usb keyboard on his Dell desktop. Worked OK for me remotely and didn’t notice anything much in devmgr or logs. Reboot fixed him up. Fluke I guess.
Both my machine (Win10 21H2 Home, the other Win 10 21H2 Pro) are offered KB5017500. Interestingly, the label assigned by WU to this update in my local language translates to “Preview Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5, 4.8 and 4.8.1 for Windows 10 Version 21H2“, but the corresponding KB article and all other websites discussing this update do not label it as a “Preview” update.
I am under the impression that whoever applied the label in my local language to the update did a mistake and this is not in fact a preview update. Did anyone else notice the same issue and/or can anyone confirm this is not a preview update? Thanks!
Interestingly, the label assigned by WU to this update in my local language translates to “Preview Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5, 4.8 and 4.8.1 for Windows 10 Version 21H2“,
I am Win10/Pro 21H2.
WU delivered KB5017500 to me, also. WUSHOWHIDE hid it. I checked there and the label is “Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5, 4.8 and 4.8.1 for Windows 10 Version 21H2.” I presume WU will show that label (no Preview in the title) when I unhide and get the “Download” button for it. (I have GP=2, notify download/install for producing the Download button).
I noticed that KB5017500 is not in the Master Patch List.
My understanding is that KB5017500 is for all three .NET versions (3.5, 4.8, and 4.8.1), whereas KB5017022 is for one pair of them (3.5 and 4.8) and KB5017025 is for the other pair of them (3.5 and 4.8.1).
Thanks Alex. I’m still on .NET 3.x/4.x, so that explains why I’m offered updates for those versions. KB5017500 was released on September 13, 2022 as noted here.

I’m on Windows 8.1 and I’m not sure why I wasn’t offered the .NET update. I have version 4.7 installed and I was given the .NET update in August. Just strange.
I just had a thought it could be because I haven’t installed the SSU yet. I’ll have to see what happens after the go-ahead to install usually later in the month.
Win 10 ver. 22H2 x64
Windows 10 Pro 21H2 Sept updates.

All is well.
Hi Susan:
Windows Update successfully installed the following Sep 2022 Patch Tuesday updates on my Win 10 Pro v21H2 laptop and I haven’t noticed any negative effects so far:
I did notice a minor glitch during the installation, which I’ve seen before when a .NET Framework update is delivered during a Patch Tuesday update. As soon as KB5017500 (2022-09 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5, 4.8 and 4.8.1) finished installing Windows Update prompted me “Restart Now“, even though KB5017308 (2022-09 Cumulative Update for Win 10 Version 21H2) was still downloading. Once KB5017308 reached “Downloading – 100%” the installation process seemed to get stuck there (see image), but putting my computer to sleep and then waking from sleep cleared the problem and KB5017308 then finished installing (i.e., Status – Pending Restart).
This month I forgot to temporarily disable my Malwarebytes Premium real-time protection after Windows Update started downloading my Sep 2022 Patch Tuesday updates – I don’t if that’s what caused this KB5017308 installation glitch but in the past few months there have been reports that Malwarebytes seems to interfere with installation of the monthly cumulative Quality Update on Win 11 computers – see AgntZer0’s 11-Aug-2022 Win 11 Cumulative Update KB5016629 Failing to Install Due to Malwarebytes for one example.

Thank you!
That explains why it appears MS has pulled the update – we’re not seeing it now. Four early test machines (Win10 Pro 21H2) did see kb5017308. The 5th and final test machine yesterday did not see it – I assumed due to some odd timing and demand/bandwidth issue.
Oy!

Just installed kb5017308 this morning.
It is still on Microsoft Catalog:
https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=kb5017308
Alex5723 – yes, thanks. I should have said pulled from automatic update distribution. They often seem to leave it in their catalog for admins to decide on relative risk and such.
And automatic distribution appears to have been re-enabled. So testing resumes.
Thank you again

No issues to report on two Windows 8.1 Pro systems.
After taking a Macrium image of each system, installed the Servicing Stack Update first (KB5017398) downloaded from the Microsoft Catalog. Then via Windows Update installed the Monthly Rollup (KB5017367).
The End of Support (EOS) notification tasks (Microsoft implemented in the July updates) continue to remain disabled.
about this quote from Susan in that article:
Windows 10 patch does NOT indicate audio issues are triggered in this release.
although that audio issue is not listed in the KB5017308 update of Sept. 13, it IS however mentioned or listed in the newly released KB5017380 preview update of Tue 9/20 for Win10 20H2/21H1/21H2:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/september-20-2022-kb5017380-os-builds-19042-2075-19043-2075-and-19044-2075-preview-59ab550c-105e-4481-b440-c37f07bf7897
expand the “known issues in this update” section for KB5017380 and the audio problem is listed there
