    Why uup dump Feature update to Windows 10, version 21H2 (19044.4291) amd64 not need these steps ?

    Code:
    support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/april-9-2024-kb5036892-os-builds-19044-4291-and-19045-4291-cb5d2d42-6b10-48f7-829a-be7d416a811b
    Code:
    Before installing this update
    
    Microsoft now combines the latest servicing stack update (SSU) for your operating system with the latest cumulative update (LCU). For general information about SSUs, see Servicing stack updates and Servicing Stack Updates (SSU): Frequently Asked Questions.
    
    Prerequisite:
    
    Based on your installation scenario, choose one of the following:
    
    1. For offline OS image servicing:
    
    If your image does not have the March 22, 2022 (KB5011543) or later LCU, you must install the special standalone May 10, 2022 SSU (KB5014032) before installing this update.
    
    
    2. For Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) deployment or when installing the standalone package from Microsoft Update Catalog:
    
    If your devices do not have the May 11, 2021 (KB5003173) or later LCU, you must install the special standalone August 10, 2021 SSU (KB5005260) before installing this update.

    None of those steps are really needed (on a running updated install or when offline integrating updates), it's a public LCU, just install it as every other LCU (19045 = 19044 + small 22H2 EP).

    The reason i ask is because of base WindowsApps 19041.1 EnterpriseG, will not update with latest offline Feature update and online updates will not update them as well.

    This is the problem file location. Every time when i start him and autoruns.
    C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.Windows.StartMenuExperienceHost_cw5n1h2txyewy

    from forum:
    "The URCTBASE.DLL is the dynamic link library file associated with Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable package.

    Please try these steps:

    1. Try to repair all the Visual C++ files in control panel - program and features

    2. Try to run Microsoft Visual Studio to repair all the C++ DLL files

    3. Restart Machine"

    Nothing helps. Starting from latest LCU Thinking about in place upgrade but

    uup-converter and W10UI always extract and install the bundled SSU first before actual LCU

    the steps are needed only for those who add LCU msu file directly

    Sorry, but what do you mean?
    I'm getting the same StartMenuExperienceHost.exe error you posted here, dozens of times a day. It started from the moment KB5036892 was installed.

    I haven't been on KB5035941 before, but linked to two threads created by users who started seeing the same issue back then. This system was on KB5035845 (March 12 CU), so I haven't experienced this frequent error prior to installing KB5036892.

    Solved: Update Windows EnterpriseG WindowsApps with winget.

    HOW:
    Code:
    PowerShell -C Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online
    
    PowerShell -C "Get-AppxPackage *HEIFImageExtension* | Remove-AppxPackage"
    
    *
    
    PowerShell
    
    winget install wingetcreate
    
    winget list
    
    winget install 'HEIF Image Extension' -s msstore --accept-package-agreements

    Exactly the same way with me. And maybe april refresh iso won't be able to fix that.

    If the issue was really introduced by the latest preview/final CU, just repair-reinstalling windows with it integrated shouldn't help. Specially if it's an incompatibility with some local account or system config/tweak, but we'll see.
    With some luck, maybe on the next CU preview by the end of the month.

    Meanwhile, I've finally noticed the start menu quickly relaunching after a very short delay while messing around with the program list, and right clicking tiles to cause one of these crashes.
    I've also tried undoing a BingSearchEnabled=0 registry tweak to disable the Web tab on Search, but didn't help.

    Thanks, I've gone through that thread, see my first post. The manual ShellExperienceHost reinstall didn't help, and that deprecated troubleshooter won't be able to do nothing. In the end, it just tries to reinstall ShellExperienceHost and complains about Cortana missing (which it can't install anymore), solving nothing. I had none of the other errors listed bellow in the last post.
    Good chance it only throws those two app errors because it's old and incompatible with current Windows.

    Do You think a clean install will fix the problem with latest KB5036892 update integrated?

    No ideia. Again, if the error only triggers after those CUs in combination with some local account/system user config/tweak you'll end up reapplying later, the problem will remain and it'll be a waste of time.
