These updates are available to all versions of Windows 10, ranging from version 1909 to 1507. However, one of these updates, namely KB4540705 for Windows 10 version 1703 fixes an issue that prevents machines that have Credential Guard enabled from joining a domain.
Those with Credential Guard activated could not join domains
According to KB4540705’s official homepage, the error message is the following: Not being able to join domains had the potential to severely hinder work and functionality, as such the fix will most likely be well-received. This issue is singular in nature since it affects only one version of Windows 10, however, this has all been fixed without any further issues. This KB also addresses an issue that might cause Microsoft browsers to bypass proxy servers, along with another issue that might prevent icons and cursors from appearing as expected. These fixes are something that KB4540705 shares with all the other cumulative updates released during the March Patch Tuesday round of updates. As far as issues go, Microsoft is not currently aware of any issues with this update.
