September 2023 Windows 10 Non-Security Optional Preview "C" Release

 Microsoft released KB5030300 for Windows 10 version 22H2 optional non-security release preview (Windows monthly updates explained).

The following are the highlighted changes included in the update:
  • New! This update brings back an improved search box experience on the taskbar. If you have a top, bottom, regular, or small icons taskbar, you will see the search box appear. You can use it to easily access apps, files, settings, and more from Windows and the web. You will also have access to the latest search updates, such as search highlights. If you want to restore your previous search experience, you can do that easily. Use the taskbar shortcut menu or respond to a dialog that appears when you use search.

  • New! This update adds animations to a few icons on the news and interests taskbar button. These animations occur when:

    • A new announcement appears on the news and interests taskbar button.

    • You hover over or click the icon while the announcement is on the taskbar.

  • This update addresses an issue that affects Microsoft Excel. It stops responding when you try to share a file as a PDF in Outlook.

  • This update addresses an issue that affects the touch keyboard. Sometimes it does not open.

See the referenced KB Article for long list of quality improvements included in the update.

This update makes quality improvements to the servicing stack, which is the component that installs Windows updates. Servicing stack updates (SSU) ensure that you have a robust and reliable servicing stack so that your devices can receive and install Microsoft updates. For general information about SSUs, see Servicing stack updates and Servicing Stack Updates (SSU): Frequently Asked Questions.

Update:  To get the update, go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update. The link to download and install the update can be found in the Optional updates available area.  To get the standalone package for this update, go to the Microsoft Update Catalog website.
