Is KB5101684 causing a Windows 11 File History issue with backup versions and timestamps not updating?

Hello,
I would like to ask whether other Windows 11 users are experiencing the same issue.
After installing KB5101684, I noticed that File History appears to be malfunctioning.
File History is enabled, and my D: drive is working normally as the backup drive. When I go to:
Control Panel → All Control Panel Items → File History → Run now
the files and pictures are indeed copied to the FileHistory folder on the D: drive.
However, the last backup time shown in File History does not update correctly. Even after modifying a file, saving it successfully, and clicking Run now, the latest backup time and file version are still not updated as expected.
In addition, when I check:
File Properties → Previous Versions
it still shows:
No previous versions available.
This issue has now continued for approximately 10 days, and I have not yet seen Microsoft officially confirm whether this is a known issue related to KB5101684.
I am also currently unable to sign in to the Microsoft Feedback Hub due to an account sign-in problem. Therefore, I submitted this issue without being signed in to the Feedback Hub. I hope Microsoft can still forward this report to the appropriate team for investigation.
I understand that KB5101684 includes other fixes, but I hope Microsoft can investigate and confirm whether this update is causing a File History problem, particularly when using a local D: drive as the backup destination.
There are now only 4 days until Microsoft releases the August 12, 2026 security update. I sincerely hope Microsoft can confirm and fix this File History issue in the August security update.
If this is indeed related to KB5101684, I would also appreciate it if Microsoft could clearly document the fix in the update's release notes.
Please ask Microsoft to investigate and confirm this File History issue. I hope a fix can be included in the August security update.
Thank you.
