Microsoft releases Windows 10 builds 18363.752, 18362.752 with tons of fixes

While Patch Tuesday was on March 10, it's common for Microsoft to release mid-stream optional updates. For some reason, the firm doesn't do it all at once, updating older versions of the OS first, and then newer versions. That round of updates arrived for versions 1607, 1709, 1803, and 1809 a week ago, and now it's time for versions 1903 and 1909 to get some love.

Anyone on the two newest versions of Windows 10, which is most users, will be offered KB4541335. It brings the build number to 18362.752 for version 1903 and 18363.752 for version 1909, and you can manually download it here. These are the highlights:

Updates an issue that causes an error when printing to a document share.

Updates a performance issue in applications that occurs when content that is protected by digital rights management (DRM) plays or is paused in the background.
