Windows 11 version 24H2 has been facing rollout challenges due to compatibility issues, leading Microsoft to implement a new block identified by protection number 56318982. The removal of such blocks can take time, similar to the previous ID 52754008 case. Current problems with Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) are preventing devices on Windows 11 versions 23H2 and 22H2 from accessing the 24H2 update. Users attempting to download version 24H2 may encounter error code 0x80240069, attributed to the April 2025 security update (KB5055528). This error obstructs the download process, and there is no temporary workaround available from Microsoft at this time. The issue is also affecting the System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM). Error code 0x80240069 is not documented in Microsoft's resources.

Microsoft has warned about potential accessibility issues with Windows Server 2025 domain controllers after a restart, where affected servers revert to the default firewall profile, disrupting applications and services. A temporary workaround involves manually restarting the network adapter on the impacted servers using the PowerShell command: Restart-NetAdapter *. This workaround needs to be reapplied after each restart of the domain controller, and Microsoft recommends setting up a scheduled task to automate this process. Windows Server 2025, launched earlier this year, introduced new features and security enhancements but has faced previous issues, including freezing Remote Desktop sessions and accidental upgrades from Windows Server 2022. Developers are currently working on a permanent solution for the domain controller issue.

Microsoft has warned IT administrators about a significant issue affecting Windows Server 2025 domain controllers, which may struggle to manage network traffic after a system restart. This problem arises because the domain controllers revert to the standard firewall profile instead of the required domain firewall profile, leading to potential inaccessibility on the domain network, application failures, and open ports that could pose security risks. The issue specifically affects Windows Server 2025 systems with the Active Directory Domain Services role, while client systems and earlier server versions remain unaffected. To address this, Microsoft recommends a temporary workaround: manually restarting the network adapter using PowerShell with the command Restart-NetAdapter * after each reboot. Administrators are advised to create a scheduled task for automation, monitor domain controllers for disruptions, and minimize unnecessary restarts. Microsoft is working on a permanent fix, with an update expected in the future.
