November 10, 2026—Baseline (KB5131090)

Applies To
Windows Server 2022 Datacenter: Azure Edition

Baseline Month

Note

The November 2026 Windows security update will be released as a standard update rather than a hotpatch update. Some of the security improvements in this update change components that cannot be updated without a restart. As a result, devices enrolled in hotpatching will need to restart to complete installation.

The November 2026 security baseline will be available starting November 10, 2026. For more information, see KB5131090.
