Microsoft has confirmed that the issue is caused by recent Windows updates — specifically KB5065789, KB5066835, and KB5066131 — which interfere with the HTTP.sys component used in server-side applications. This affects environments running Windows Server 2025 and Windows 11, and disrupts the authentication flow used by the Workspot Windows Client.

Resolution Steps (as per Microsoft):
Microsoft recommends the following actions to mitigate the issue:
- Step 1: On the affected machine, go to Settings > Windows Update and click “Check for updates.”
- Step 2: Restart the machine, regardless of whether new updates are found. This reboot helps restore normal functionality.

For air-gapped environments, Microsoft has provided a manual rollback installer:
Download Known Issue Rollback MSI https://download.microsoft.com/download/16d61dc0-7e94-4cd2-ba3c-4f59dece8488/Windows 11 24H2, Windows 11 25H2 and Windows Server 2025 KB5066835 251015_22001 Known Issue Rollback.msi

Next Steps:
We recommend IT administrators:
- Review devices for the presence of the affected KB updates.
- Apply the Microsoft-recommended mitigation steps.
- Use the Web Client as a temporary workaround if needed.

We will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as necessary. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
