Microsoft has released cumulative update KB5122878 for Windows 10 version 22H2 as part of the September 2026 Patch Tuesday. This update is intended for devices enrolled in the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program and contains a number of improvements aimed at enhancing system stability and compatibility, as well as fixes for previously identified issues.
- Date and time. Updated Morocco time zone settings due to the country's transition to permanent UTC+00:00 time starting September 20, 2026.
- OMA DM protocol. Improved logging for the OMA DM Client component (omadmclient.exe). More debug information is now saved when connecting to the server.
- Windows Code Integrity policies. Improved application compatibility when changing the Windows certificate authority. Microsoft Windows Production PCA 2026 RSA2048-SHA256 is now recognized as equivalent to PCA 2011.
- Remote Desktop. Fixed an audio redirection issue where sound from a remote session might not play on the local computer in certain configurations.
- BitLocker Group Policies. Fixed a known issue where devices with a non-recommended BitLocker group policy configuration could prompt for a recovery key.
Cumulative update KB5122878 is installed automatically through Windows Update. To check for the update, go to Settings, then Update & Security, and click Check for updates. A computer restart will be required after installation is complete. The build number for Windows 10 version 22H2 will change to 19045.7725.

Find and Change Settings
| Setting | Where to find | How to change |
|---|---|---|
| Morocco Time Zone | Settings > Time & Language > Date & time | To reflect Morocco's permanent switch to UTC+00:00 starting September 20, 2026, open Settings > Time & Language > Date & time and select the updated time zone for Morocco. You can also enable "Set time zone automatically" or manually choose "(UTC+00:00) Morocco" from the time zone dropdown. |
| OMA DM Client Logging | Event Viewer > Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > DeviceManagement-Enterprise-Diagnostics-Provider | The improved logging is automatic. To view the additional debug information, open Event Viewer and navigate to Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > DeviceManagement-Enterprise-Diagnostics-Provider. No user action is required to enable the logging; it is saved when the OMA DM Client connects to the server. |
| Windows Code Integrity Policy Compatibility | Local Security Policy > Security Settings > Application Control Policies > AppLocker or Windows Defender Application Control | This improvement is applied automatically. Microsoft Windows Production PCA 2026 RSA2048-SHA256 is now treated as equivalent to PCA 2011. No manual change is required, but you can verify or adjust code integrity policies in Local Security Policy or via Intune if application compatibility issues occur. |
| Remote Desktop Audio Redirection | Settings > System > Remote Desktop > Advanced settings | The audio redirection fix is applied automatically with the update. To adjust remote audio settings, open Settings > System > Remote Desktop > Advanced settings and configure "Play remote audio" to "Play on this computer" or "Play on remote computer" as needed. |
| BitLocker Group Policy Recovery Key Prompt | Group Policy Editor > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > BitLocker Drive Encryption | The fix is applied automatically. To avoid recovery key prompts, ensure BitLocker group policies follow recommended configurations. Open Group Policy Editor and review settings under Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > BitLocker Drive Encryption, and align them with Microsoft recommendations. |
