With this update, Microsoft finally fixed the “calculated filter” message when using filters in the file explorer search results. Another bug that has been fixed is that the search filter freezes or stops responding when the user tries to change the type of filter used (such as file type, file date).

Microsoft also fixed the performance problems caused by explorer.exe, which is responsible for important elements such as file explorer, taskbar, operation center and so on.

In addition to the File Explorer fix, Microsoft has also fixed an issue where some displays will produce darker colors than expected. This happens only when using HDR mode, this feature is only available for certain monitors. It also fixes the problem that video playback synchronization cannot work when you use multiple monitors.
