Windows 11 is not the only one to have received a new update today since Microsoft's previous operating system is also served. For Windows 10, the update is named KB5009596 and it also contains lots of fixes.

Microsoft has therefore released an optional update dubbed KB5009596 for Windows 10 users. It brings a large list of fixes but also a small novelty to help users migrate to Windows 11 more easily. Indeed, a new feature dubbed “ Synchronize your settings” has been added and allows you to keep the list of installed applications in your Microsoft account. This way, if you change PCs, you can more easily restore the applications installed on your old PC that is running Windows 11.

In addition to this small novelty, Microsoft has also included many fixes with this update. We can for example cite the resolution of a bug that could block printing on printers connected by USB, a fix that allows you to find the connection with your Bluetooth headset or even improvements related to Edge. Here is the complete changelog shared by Microsoft regarding KB5009596:
