Windows 10 KB5055627
April 25
Optional

KB5055627 is an update released on April 25, 2025, as an optional preview, which means it is not supposed to install automatically. It comes with Recall AI, Windows Search with Semantic Index and other fixes on Copilot+ PCs. This patch also makes Explorer faster, but don’t expect radical improvements.

Improvements

  • Recall AI: You can now easily find apps, websites, or files you've used before with Recall AI on Copilot+ PCs. Just describe what you're looking for, and Recall finds it quickly.
  • Better Windows Search: You can now find complicated files, photos, and settings using simple language. It is powered by AI, so the search now understands you better.
  • Phone Link: Microsoft is adding Phone Link to the Start menu, so you can easily make calls, send texts,  or access photos directly from your Start menu.
  • Automatic Camera Framing: Your camera now automatically frames you perfectly during calls.

Fixes & Improvements

  • A faster File Explorer is here! It takes less than two seconds to load the homepage on Windows 11.
  • BSODs fixed: Microsoft has finally fixed BSODs happening after recent updates.
  • Internet issues: You'll no longer lose internet after your PC wakes up.
  • JPEG not loading? Microsoft has patched a bug where JPEG files do not load correctly on some websites.
  • Windows Hello is back: Also, it looks like Windows Hello issues are finally patched, so you can now easily login using face or PIN.
