Final Windows 7 (KB5022338) and Windows 8.1 (KB5022352) Patch Tuesday updates land By Paul Hill · Jan 10, 2023 14:14 EST.
Microsoft has released the final Windows 7 (KB5022338) and Windows 8.1 (KB5022352) Patch Tuesday updates. Both include improvements but unfortunately also some known issues which will now never be addressed. The release notes are as follows:
Windows 7
Improvements
Authentication might fail after you set the higher 16-bits of the msds-SupportedEncryptionTypes attribute. This issue might occur if encryption types are not set or if RC4 Encryption type is disabled on the domain.
Resolves a known issue that affects apps that use Microsoft Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) SQL Server Driver (sqlsrv32.dll) to connect to databases. The connection might fail. You might also receive an error in the app, or you might receive an error from the SQL Server.

Known issues in this update
SymptomNext Step
After installing this update and restarting your device, you might receive the error, "Failure to configure Windows updates. Reverting Changes. Do not turn off your computer", and the update might show as Failed in Update History.
This is expected in the following circumstances:
If you are installing this update on a device that is running an edition that is not supported for ESU. For a complete list of which editions are supported, see KB4497181.
If you do not have an ESU MAK add-on key installed and activated.
If you have purchased an ESU key and have encountered this issue, please verify you have applied all prerequisites and that your key is activated. For information on activation, please see this blog post. For information on the prerequisites, see the How to get this update section of this article.
After this update or a later Windows update is installed, domain join operations might be unsuccessful and error "0xaac (2732): NERR_AccountReuseBlockedByPolicy" occurs. Additionally, text stating "An account with the same name exists in Active Directory. Re-using the account was blocked by security policy" might be displayed.
Affected scenarios include some domain join or re-imaging operations where a computer account was created or pre-staged by a different identity than the identity used to join or re-join the computer to the domain.
For more information about this issue, see KB5020276—Netjoin: Domain join hardening changes.
Note Consumer Desktop editions of Windows are unlikely to experience this issue.
We have added guidance to KB5020276 and are evaluating whether optimizations can be made in a future Windows Update. This guidance will be updated as soon as those changes are released.
Windows 8.1
Improvements
Authentication might fail after you set the higher 16-bits of the msds-SupportedEncryptionTypes attribute. This issue might occur if encryption types are not set or if RC4 Encryption type is disabled on the domain.
Starting in this release, we are displaying a modal dialog box to remind users about the End of Support for Windows 8.1 in January 2023. This reminder does not appear on managed devices that run Windows 8.1 Pro or Windows 8.1 Enterprise.

Both of these updates will be delivered via Windows Update (you need an ESU SKU for Windows 7) automatically. If you have offline machines, you can grab these updates as independent downloads from the Microsoft Update Catalog (Windows 7, Windows 8.1). If you’re on Windows 7, be sure to check earlier coverage about Microsoft adding half-baked UEFI Secure Boot to Windows 7 right before killing the operating system.

Actually you can extend support of Windows 7 up to 2024 by installing Windows Server 2008 R2 Azure-only ESU updates and 8.1 up to 2026 by installing Windows Server 2012 R2 ESU updates, so, there issues will be actually addressed

Windows 8 will always have a special place in my heart as my first operating system, despite the dogshit design decisions by micro$oft
