These are updates KB5019980 and KB5019961 for Windows 11 and KB5019959 for Windows 10. Although they are intended to fix known bugs in Microsoft products, installing these packages may also affect the functionality of various applications that work with DirectX and Direct3D on computers with older versions of interact graphics drivers Intel.
“After installing KB5019980, you may receive an error message about apphelp.dll running on Windows devices with Intel graphics driver versions 26.20.100.7463 to 30.0.101.1190. This problem can be intermittent and can affect applications that use DirectX or Direct3D to render some or all of their content.”Microsoft said in a statement.
At the same time, Microsoft has promised to fix this bug in the next update. For now, you can solve the problem by installing the latest version of Intel graphics driver. This means that users can install a driver version higher than 30.0.101.1190, which was released back in December 2021.
