Quote:Microsoft finally fixed two known issues acknowledged over five months ago, causing higher than normal battery drain and update installation failure issues on Windows 10 devices.
 
The first one affected both client and server Windows 10, version 1903 platforms, while the second addressed issue impacted Windows 10, version 1903 and  Windows 10, version 1809 client platforms.
 
These two known issues were resolved on the same day Windows 10 November 2019 Update started rolling out (also known as Windows 10, version 1909) with bug fixes and feature improvements.
 
The company also released the November 2019 security updates designed to address 74 vulnerabilities, 13 of them being classified as Critical. The November 2019 Patch Tuesday also fixed an actively exploited critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability found in Internet Explorer.
 
Microsoft fixed a known issue impacting a range of Intel Display Audio device drivers (versions 10.25.0.3 through 10.25.0.8) that was found to be causing problems leading to higher than normal battery drain on devices running Windows 10 1903 and Windows 10 1809.
 
"If you see an intcdaud.sys notification or 'What needs your attention' notification when trying to update to Windows 10, version 1903, you have an affected Intel Audio Display device driver installed on your machine," said Microsoft in an update acknowledging the issue on the Windows 10 Health Dashboard in May.
