Microsoft: September updates cause RDS failures on Windows Server

Microsoft has acknowledged that September 2026 security updates introduce failures affecting Remote Desktop Services (RDS) on Windows Server systems. The issue affects server deployments relying on RDS functionality after the monthly patch cycle.

Why it matters: Windows Server administrators using RDS must evaluate whether to defer September updates or prepare workarounds, as applying patches risks service disruption in production environments.
