   I always believed MS was thoroughly testing every CU before it’s released? How can this happen

   Should we go ahead and install KB5002682 while waiting for this to be resolved, or both at the same time?

      Hi Brian,
      the updated fix is now available.
      So you can install both of them.
      Cheers,
      Stefan

      In case anyone is downloading the re-released .cab file from Microsoft Update Catalog at https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB5002692, the new file name is:

      sts-x-none_b61ab549ca1fc7e5e22d1ecea6aed04e9b5cda89.cab

      The previous file, which now is obsolete, was:

      sts-x-none-f9ca5796ba…….5c570.cab

   I can confirm the new package installs without errors.
   Build number for the language independent patch was increased to 1003.
   Language independent : 16.0.5495.1003
   Language dependent : 16.0.5495.1002
