Microsoft’s September 2025 security updates have thrown Windows Server 2025 into chaos, with Active Directory issues wreaking havoc on large security groups.

Hot Take:

Hold onto your hats, folks, because Microsoft’s September 2025 update has turned into a synchronization soap opera! Active Directory is having a mid-life crisis, thanks to a Windows Server 2025 update that has sent it spiraling into dysfunction. It’s a classic tale of “update gone rogue” — and Microsoft just handed us the registry key equivalent of duct tape. Be warned: one wrong move and you might end up having to reinstall your entire operating system. Who knew that tech could be this melodramatic?

Key Points:

  • September 2025 security updates are causing Active Directory issues in Windows Server 2025.
  • Synchronization problems affect large AD security groups and Microsoft Entra Connect Sync.
  • Workaround involves adding a specific registry key, but risks are involved.
  • Microsoft is also troubleshooting update failures on Windows 11 24H2 and Server 2025 via KIR.
  • Previous issues involved Azure VMs and domain controller unreachability.
