Important notes

Always install both packages in this order:

  1. language independent components (core CU)
  2. language-dependent components (language CU)

For language-dependent packages, the language you select does not matter because each package contains updates for all languages.

If you install a new language pack on a SharePoint Server Subscription Edition farm, you must reinstall the language-dependent update afterwards.

Both KB 5002247 and KB 5002233 require Microsoft SharePoint Server Subscription Edition to be installed. A restart may be needed after installation.
