• ^{UPDATED 10/12/22}
• ACTION REQUIRED: .NET 3.1 end of life is on 12/13/2022!  You must migrate to .NET 6.0 before January 2023.
• .NET Core 3.1 will reach end of life on December 13, 2022.  Any service using .NET Core 3.1 after December 2022 will be at immediate security and compliance risk starting on January 13, 2023.  Because of the security impact, there are no extensions and deferrals for these dates.
• Call To Action: Services using .NET 3.1 must migrate to, recompile, and validate to .NET 6.0 before January 2023.

IMPORTANT .NET 5.0 reached end of service on May 8, 2022. We will discontinue .NET 5.0 support on Windows Server 2022 Azure Marketplace images after June 2022. Microsoft recommends that you migrate your applications to a newer version of .NET. 

Note

IMPORTANT The standalone servicing stack update (SSU), KB5005112, for Windows Server 2019 Datacenter edition does not show as installed on the latest Azure Marketplace images. This is by design. Because of this, WSUS and Configuration Manager admins can deploy this SSU on devices that do not have the latest SSU that Unified packages require.

Note

Windows Server 2019 images include the latest version of Microsoft Edge starting in the October 2022 release.
