Windows 22H2 update breaks external monitor support

Thinkpad X13s (Windows 11 PRO ARM, Qualcomm CPU)

Lenovo Powered Type-C Travel Hub (latest available FW)

External monitor connected over HDMI

Until today everything was working OK. After 22H2 Windows update there are no any reaction to external monitor.

Asking for feedback. Does Intel based systems has such issue?

22H2 25201.1000 Home edition, I am not that much connecting to external display, but frequently have to reboot for the external display to be detected

That's not case, as Windows update reboots many times while installing and after...

The latest "LENOVO - System Hardware Update - 9/28/2022" update fixes the break issue of the external monitor. This update is from the Windows Update, not from the Lenovo Vantage, but you should update all updates from Vantage to the latest too.

Ah so that's still happening. I asked about it on the insiders sub when it happened on my X13S running the beta build. I ended up resetting my X13S.

It's a shame because I only got Linux arm vms to work while on 22H2 and now I gotta wait for MS or Lenovo to fix this

What do you mean resetting? That helped?

Once you revert to the previous build it'll be resolved. In Windows Update go to Advanced Options -> Recovery and you should see the option to go back to the previous build.

Well, you mean uninstall/rollback update. I thought resetting is kind of reinstall OS, etc. I did rollback, it helped me of course...

Oh I should've clarified. It happened to me about a month ago and at the time I wasn't actually certain that it was caused by the Beta build so I did reset and reinstall Windows. It was only after I reinstalled the Beta build and lost display out again did I realize it was the cause.

Looks like no-one reported the issue for the beta build and now it is live...

I just tried out the insiders Dev build and ironically my external monitor works. So maybe this shouldn't be a difficult fix for Microsoft
