Windows 10, rilasciate le nuove build 18363.815 e 18362.814 con tantissimi fix: eccoli tutti

La scorsa settimana, in occasione del Patch Tuesday di Aprile, Microsoft ha rilasciato diversi fix per le versioni supportate di Windows 10 (non senza problemi). Nelle scorse ore, invece, l'azienda ha avviato la distribuzione di nuovi aggiornamenti opzionali, che possono essere installati a discrezione dell'utente. Gli stessi saranno presenti nel prossimo Patch Tuesday, ma per chi ha i problemi che segnaliamo di seguito può valere la pena installarli manualmente sin da subito.

Le nuove patch sono disponibili via Windows Update sulle versioni Windows 1909, 1903, 1809 e alcune SKU delle 1803 e 1607. Questa è l'ultima volta che Microsoft propone aggiornamenti nelle ultime due settimane del mese fino a nuovo ordine: a causa del coronavirus, e del fatto che molta gente lavora in smart working e ha maggiormente bisogno dei computer, gli aggiornamenti cumulativi opzionali saranno messi in attesa a favore di quelli obbligatori del Patch Tuesday.

Windows 10 versioni 1909 e 1903 hanno ricevuto il KB4550945, che porta le build a, rispettivamente, 18363.815 e 18362.815. Ecco le novità riprese dal changelog ufficiale:
