The good news is that Windows Home Edition users are unlikely to encounter this problem because the bug mainly occurs in virtualized environments.

Microsoft said that this issue is more likely to affect devices using virtual machine tools and nested virtualization features (such as CloudPC, DevBox, Azure Virtual Desktop). The relevant team is investigating to determine the exact conditions that may trigger this issue and will provide updates in upcoming releases.

Gradual rollout: not available to all users yet
