The fix
Microsoft fixes this in updateKB5044288. The fixed build differs per Windows version, so the row that matters is the one matching the machine you are looking at.
| Windows version | Fixed in build | Update | Released |
|---|---|---|---|
| Windows Server 2022, 23H2 Edition (Server Core installation) | 10.0.25398.1189 | KB5044288 | 2026-09-17 |
Having the KB is not the same as knowing whether a machine has it. Windows updates supersede each other, so the update you installed often covers a fix that shipped in an earlier one. Paste your build into the patch checker and it walks that chain for you.
