Patch Tuesday was almost two weeks ago, but it"s not uncommon for Microsoft to release cumulative updates in the middle of the month. Last week, Windows 10 users on versions 1607 and 1703 got some love, and today, the company is releasing a new update for those on the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, or version 1709.
Today"s update is KB4103714, and it brings the build number to 16299.461. It can be manually downloaded here, and it contains the following fixes:
Addresses additional issues with updated time zone information.
Addresses an issue that causes Internet Explorer dialogs on a second monitor to also appear on the primary monitor when using extended display.
Addresses an issue with Microsoft Edge browser windows in remote sessions.
Addresses a reliability issue in .NET applications when using a Japanese IME in a textbox.
Addresses a reliability issue that may cause Microsoft Edge or other applications to stop responding when you create a new audio endpoint while audio or video playback is starting.
Addresses an issue with Bluetooth devices failing to receive data after a restart.
Addresses an issue that can prevent the touch keyboard from showing up reliably in some instances.
Addresses an issue where UWP apps that store local crash dumps in their local app data folders can"t be cleared using Disk Cleanup or StorageSense. In these cases, LocalDumps isn"t enabled.
Addresses an issue that prevents adding performance counters to the Performance Monitor on systems with many processors.
Addresses an issue that causes BitLocker to go into recovery mode when updates are applied.
Addresses an issue where expired VPN certificates aren"t deleted, slowing application performance.

Provides an explicit error when plugins fail to connect to prevent timeouts.
Addresses an issue where running the DiskShadow utility after adding a persistent memory controller causes RetrieveAllVirtualMachinesComponentsMetadata() to stop responding.
Addresses an issue that causes a VM to throw an error after creating the VM with static memory. This occurs when you enable HYPER-V and disable NUMA in the BIOS on a physical machine that has more than 64 logical processors. The error is “The data is invalid. (0x8007000D)”, and the VM fails to start.
Addresses an issue that occurs when multiple processes are limited by rate, using job objects. This can cause various symptoms including, but not limited to, system-process CPU spikes, interrupt-time CPU spikes, high privileged time on some CPUs, and increased system or processor queue lengths.
Addresses an issue that causes docker builds to fail with the error message “hcsshim::ImportLayer failed in Win32: The system cannot find the path specified.”
Addresses an issue in which Windows 10 clients that authenticate to 802.1x WLAN access points fail to apply Group Policy permissions, run scripts, or retrieve roaming profiles at user logon. This occurs because Kerberos authentication fails for \\domain\sysvol, \\domain\netlogon, and other DFS paths.
Addresses an issue in a RemoteApp session that causes clicking in the foreground window to become unresponsive when using grouped windows.
Addresses an issue in a RemoteApp session that may result in a black screen when maximizing an application on a secondary monitor.
Addresses an issue with application association in the DISM tool.

The build does not contain any known issues.
Typically, we"d recommend heading over to Windows Update and checking for updates to get the cumulative update that"s designated for your version of Windows 10. Unfortunately, Microsoft has decided that anyone that hits the Check for updates button wants Windows 10 version 1803 right now, whether your machine is ready for it or not. So if you want this update now, you should either install it manually, or wait for Windows Update to do it automatically.
