What’s Up with KB 3124200 Cumulative Update for Version 1511??
Not surprisingly, the description of the patch is quite scarce, not giving insight on what functionalities it aims to improve. However, this fact never stopped both experienced users and researchers from digging deeper.
According to InfoWorld, KB 3124200 has installed on Windows 10 version 1511 overnight and may have caused a reboot of the system the next morning. Also, note that the cumulative update may have installed only on Windows 10 version 1511 machines that aren’t on a metered connection.
Reports indicate that the KB 3124200 patch may have served to fix a bug that caused WLAN AutoConfig service to crash and harm Wi-Fi services. According to users who have posted on Microsoft Answers, the issue was caused by the 5th cumulative update known as KB 3116908 and released on December 3.
If Win10 v1511 users have experienced issues with their wireless connections, and suddenly these issues are now gone, this could mean that KB 3124200 silently corrected the wrongs.
Well, for now we are only left with assumptions, since Microsoft has said nothing on the matter.
