Microsoft Resolves Certificate Services Client Bug in Windows 11
Recently, we reported that users were experiencing issues related to the CertificateServicesClient (CertEnroll) in Event Viewer, particularly with Event ID 57, after the installation of non-security preview updates in July. Initially, Microsoft advised users to disregard this error message, as it referred to a feature still under development. However, the company has now released a permanent fix.
Details of the Resolution
In a recent update published on the Windows Release Health dashboard, Microsoft confirmed that it has effectively addressed this issue through the KB5064081 non-security update for Windows 11, specifically for devices running version 24H2. This critical fix is being rolled out to all commercial devices managed by Microsoft, as well as for consumer versions, including Windows Home and Pro, which will receive the update automatically.
Update Rollout Timeline
It’s worth mentioning that Microsoft expects it may take up to four weeks for the update to fully propagate across all devices. Future security and non-security updates will include this patch by default. For organizations with IT-managed Windows updates, they can anticipate receiving this update next month.
Understanding the Bug’s Nature
It’s essential for users to understand that the bug specifically affected devices running Windows 11, version 24H2. Although the error message indicated a failure to load the “Microsoft Pluton Cryptographic Provider, ”this was a misleading false positive — no actual processes were compromised, which is why Microsoft initially encouraged users to overlook the error.
Other Ongoing Issues
Additionally, Microsoft is actively investigating another known issue affecting OBS NDI streaming performance across multiple Windows versions. While the company has provided a temporary workaround, they are working diligently on a permanent fix. No specific timelines for this patch have been announced yet, but we will keep you updated as more information becomes available.
