Workaround

After installing this update, users may experience error “0x800705b4” when launching Windows Defender Application Guard or Windows Sandbox.

Use the credentials of a local admin to create and set the following registry keys on the Host OS then restart the Host:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Containers\CmService\Policy]

Microsoft is working on a resolution and will provide an update in an upcoming release.

When using the MS UI Gothic or MS PGothic fonts, the text, layout, or cell size may become narrower or wider than expected in Microsoft Excel. For example, the layout and cell size of Microsoft Excel sheets may change when using MS UI Gothic.

Microsoft is working on a resolution and estimates a solution will be available in mid-May.

Until a resolution is released, we recommend switching to a different Japanese font, such as Yu Gothic or MS Mincho. Alternatively, you can uninstall the optional update.
