    Windows 11 KB5060842 24H2 out with features, direct download links for .msu installer

    June 10, 2025

    Windows 11 KB5060842 is now available for Windows 11 24H2 with Build 26100.4349 via Windows Update. If it fails to install, Microsoft has posted direct download links for KB5060842 offline installer (.msu) on Update Catalog. Today’s update has a lot of new features, including Win+C to open Copilot/ChatGPT, Resume for OneDrive, and more.

    KB5060842 is a mandatory security update, which means it’s supposed to download and install automatically unless you hit the brakes by pausing updates for seven or more days. In our tests, Windows Latest noticed that the update takes over five minutes to download and another three minutes to finish installing.

    Once you’ve installed Windows 11’s June 2025 Update, you’ll notice that the Win+C keyboard shortcut now works again. It’ll open Copilot instead of doing nothing. As you probably know, this keyboard shortcut previously handled Cortana, but Microsoft’s decision to retire the digital assistant left the keyboard shortcut vacant.

    While testing KB5060842, Windows Latest noticed that it’s possible to reassign the keyboard shortcut to open Windows Search, ChatGPT and other supported AI apps, such as Perplexity.

    You don’t have to make changes to the registry. Just open Settings > Personalization > Text Input, and select ChatGPT from the list.

    2025-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 24H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5060842)

    As you can see in the above screenshot, this update shows up as “2025-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 24H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5060842),” and it advances PCs to Windows 11 Build 26100.4343.

    Download Links for Windows 11 KB5060842

    Windows 11 KB5060842 Direct Download Links: 64-bit and ARM-64 | Microsoft Update Catalog.

    Based on our tests, Windows 11 Build 26100.4343 is quite a large update with up to 3GB size for the .msu file on Intel and AMD PCs, while the ARM version is approximately 2.9 GB.

    I’ve been saying it for months now, and I’m going to repeat it again. The reason we’re seeing a massive increase in the size of these Windows Update offline packages is that Microsoft is now bundling AI models with the .msu files.

    The AI models won’t get applied on non-AI PCs, but you’ll still need to download everything because Microsoft hasn’t figured out a way to decouple AI models from offline installers (.msu). However, it looks like it has tried to optimize the .msu a bit, as the size dropped to 3GB in the June 2025 Update from 4GB in the May 2025 Update.

    If you don’t want to download a 3GB update, I recommend relying on Windows Update, which requires less than a gigabyte of bandwidth for KB5060842 installation.

    What’s new in Windows 11 Build 26100.4349?

    With Windows 11 KB5060842, Microsoft is bumping Windows 11 24H2 to Build 26100.4343 and here’s everything new:

    1. AI features in the June 2025 Update for Windows 11

    Click To Do, which is a knock-off of Windows Recall, is getting Ask Copilot support. This allows you to highlight text or an image, and access ‘Ask Copilot,’ which sends the content to the Copilot app.

    In case of AI PCs, you can enter the “Click to Do” experience and trigger “Ask Copilot” anywhere. It also works on regular PCs, but only via File Explorer.

    2. Copilot voice mode can now be triggered by holding Win + C

    You just need to hold the Win+C key, and Copilot will start speaking to you. On a Copilot+ PC, you can also tap and hold the Copilot key for a few seconds. Both of the shortcuts will trigger Copilot’s speak mode.

    With Windows 11 KB5060842, Microsoft still allows you to use Alt + Spacebar to interact with Copilot, but it’s not necessary. Since Win+C is back, it’s better to use the shortcut for other features, such as PowerToys’ Run.

    Microsoft told Windows Latest that the Alt+Spacebar keyboard shortcut is set using a Registry trick, and if two or more apps share the same shortcut, Windows redirects it to the supported app that you opened first on your PC.

    3. Windows Resume feature rolls out with OneDrive

    Windows 11 Build 26100.4349 with Resume feature

    Microsoft is making it possible to edit files on your phone (iOS and Android) and resume them on your PC with a new feature called “Resume”, but it works only when the files are synced to OneDrive.

    cross device resume editing feature in Windows 11 24H2

    To use Resume, make sure the toggle is turned on in Settings > Apps, all your devices are using the same OneDrive and files are edited on your phone using Microsoft apps. Once you’ve edited the file on your phone, you need to unlock your PC within the last five minutes, or you’ll not get the alert.

    The Resume integration is similar to Apple’s Continuity, but it’s not useful at the moment.

    For example, OneDrive integration is buggy and doesn’t work most of the time. You might run into the feature accidentally, but it’s not something you’ll use daily, at least for now.

    In a future release of Windows, you’ll be able to start a song on Spotify for Android/iOS and resume it on your PC directly from the taskbar.

    4. System Restore locked to 60 days

    This one is a pretty interesting change, and I do not understand why the System Restore feature is even changing.

    Starting Windows 11 24H2’s June 2025 Update, System Restore point will not retain your restore points for up to 60 days.

    Everything remains the same, and the feature isn’t being deprecated or removed, but you’ll notice that Windows 11 KB5060842 locks restore points to 60 days.

    5. New Share UI, better Settings and more

    Windows 11 New Drag Tray to Share Files

    You can now select a file and drag it to the top region of the screen to access a “Share UI” where you can drop the file and send it to one of the selected apps, such as Outlook or Phone Link, which transfers the file to a connected Android phone.

    Another noteworthy change is a new toggle in Settings > System > Display that allows you to turn Dolby Vision on or off regardless of HDR settings, so you have full control over graphics.

    Here’s the full list of improvements and fixes in Windows 11 KB5060842:

    • Microsoft has patched an issue where BitLocker could cause a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD).
    • Another bug has been fixed here. BitLocker PIN and Recovery screen render slowly.
    • Microsoft has fixed an issue that causes game performance issues and GPU memory leak (excessive usage).
    • A bug has been fixed where certain camera setting blocks Windows Hello Face Enrollment.
    • A bug that caused high RAM usage when you used the keyboard or mouse while playing games has been fixed. It was tied to the Input service’s increased memory usage.
    • Certain USB devices won’t work and appear “disconnected” until you reboot your PC.
    • A bug where File Explorer search doesn’t work when you disconnect from a network has been fixed.

    It is worth noting that most of the improvements are rolling out, including the Phone Link panel in the Start menu, which now lets you mirror your Android screen to the desktop.

    If you’re on Windows 11 24H2, you can install KB5060842, OS build 26100.4349 from Windows Update by checking for updates, but don’t expect to get access to any of these features immediately.
