This one is a bit interesting. A field at the “Extra” header is no longer reserved. Its value of “1” does not help to understand its purpose, but I’ll update MCE to show it either way.

Nothing new in Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25131, but I don’t understand why we even post this week after week. You have to write when something new appears, right? :roll_eyes:

@westlake I do appreciate the updates, it saves me loading mcupdate_GenuineIntel.dll into MCExtractor to see if anything has changed on each insider build (and mcupdate_AuthenticAMD.dll for the AMD folks).

On a side note, I do find it amusing that a microcode for CPUID 906ED for my 9900KS and 9700K is not even present in Windows 10 21H2 mcupdate_GenuineIntel.dll.

@westlake I agree with @chinobino on this. I also find it useful to know that at least someone did check the latest dll from the various MS builds for anything new. Thank you all for keeping us in the loop. :slight_smile:

@chinobino, @plutomaniac

Perhaps my wording is imprecise? My point was that it is pointless to write week after week that there is nothing new in a given build. I did not mean that there is no point in regularly checking the two files. It is enough to write if there IS something new in them. I always check it, so you don’t have to wonder if no one posted it because no one checked it.

No, that doesn’t mean that your wording is imprecise, that’s a matter of communication:

Posting ‘nothing new’ means in addition ‘I did check’

Posting nothing leaves it open if you checked of maybe forgot it or just decided no longer to check at all or maybe MS is late with its build?

I’m not on any insider program but I appreciate it to know that someone did check and there’s nothing new…

I personally like the “nothing new” updates for MS dlls, still useful. There is no problem at all to post these whenever you check a new build. But it’s your choice of course. :wink:

I like it when someone post nothing new, cause MS will add new MC and then remove them the next build, so every new build should be checked!

I hope it will be appropriate instead of “nothing new”. I will try to keep updating. It seems complicated at first, but it’s not really. If anyone has any questions, please ask privately.
