Microsoft has released the optional Preview cumulative update for Windows 10 22H2 titled KB5027293, which includes 11 additional fixes or modifications in addition to three new features. This KB5027293 cumulative update review is important for Microsoft's new "optional non-security preview release" released on the last Tuesday of each and every month. Admins of Windows can use this update to test new features and fixes that will be made available on Patch Tuesday the following month.

This release is mostly a maintenance release because it fixes many bugs that caused crashes or problems with the network connection. But, Microsoft delivered two new enterprise features and worked on Chinese fonts and input. The preview updates do not include security updates, unlike the cumulative Patch Tuesday updates.
 

By going into Settings, clicking on Windows Update, and manually performing a "Check for Updates," Windows users can install this update. By clicking the "Download and install" link, you will be asked whether you want to install this optional update.

Post installing this update, Windows 10 22H2 will be refreshed to construct 19045.3155. The KB5027293 preview update can also be manually downloaded and installed by Windows 10 users from the Microsoft Update Catalog.
