Hello,

I am trying to apply a security patch to Windows Server 2019 based on the security advisory from the following Microsoft Security Response Center blog post:

https://msrc.microsoft.com/blog/2025/07/202507-security-update/

Server Environment:

  • Operating System: Windows Server 2019
  • Server Type: Not exposed to external networks (internal server)
  • Installation Method: Standalone installer (offline installation)

Applied Installer:

Error Message:

"This update is not applicable to your computer" (Windows Update Standalone Installer)

Additional Information:

  • The prerequisite patch KB5005112 has already been successfully applied to this server.

Question:

Could you please advise which specific installer I should use for this Windows Server 2019 system? I want to ensure I'm applying the correct security patch to address the vulnerabilities mentioned in the security advisory.

Any guidance on the proper installation procedure or alternative installers would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,

    Dear 吉岡 辰一,

    The error message “This update is not applicable to your computer” typically indicates a mismatch between the update package and the system’s current configuration. Although KB5005112 has been successfully applied, please ensure that your server is running the correct build of Windows Server 2019 that aligns with the cumulative update requirements. You can verify your current OS build by running winver or checking System Information.

    Additionally, please confirm that the update package matches your system’s language and architecture. In some cases, updates labeled for “Windows 10” may not apply to Server editions if the metadata does not align, even though the binaries are compatible. We recommend downloading the update directly from the Microsoft Update Catalog and verifying that the package is listed for Windows Server 2019.

    If the issue persists, consider using the DISM tool to apply the update manually or review the CBS logs for more detailed error context.

    I hope this helps. Just kindly tick Accept Answer that others in the community facing similar issues can easily find the solution. Your contribution is highly appreciated.

    Best regards,

    Domic Vo

    Here is your question translated into English for the Microsoft Q&A community:


    Subject: How to check dependencies for KB5062557 on Windows Server 2019

    Thank you for your assistance.

    Current system information:

    • Edition: Windows Server 2019 Datacenter
    • Version: 1809
    • OS Build: 17763.7678

    I downloaded a standalone installer for Windows Server 2019 from the Microsoft Update Catalog, but the filename indicates "Windows10." This server typically does not have security patches applied, so I would like to know how to check for dependent packages that may be required.

    My ultimate goal is to apply "KB5062557."

    Is there a method to verify the dependencies needed before installing this update on an unpatched server?

    Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
