    Victim Impact Update

    Microsoft is addressing a known issue where Microsoft Teams and new Outlook for Windows can fail to launch or close unexpectedly on ARM-based Windows 11 24H2 or later devices such as Surface Pro 11 and Surface Laptop 7 after installing Windows security updates released on or after August 11, 2026 (KB5121003).
