Updates for SharePoint Server 2019 (August 2026 CU)

A new cumulative update (August 2026 CU) has been released for SharePoint Server 2019.

SP Build:
16.0.10417.20198 (Language independent CU)
16.0.10417.20198 (Language dependent CU)

Important before installation:

If you are upgrading from the September 2025 CU to a newer update, remove the NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM account from the local WSS_WPG and IIS_IUSRS groups on every SharePoint server in the farm before installation, if it is a member. Otherwise, installation of the update may fail.

SharePoint 2019 CU – KB articles describing the CU:

  • KB 5002894 – August 2026 Update for SharePoint Server 2019 (language independent)
  • KB 5002896 – August 2026 Update for SharePoint Server 2019 (language dependent)

SharePoint Server 2019 CU – CU download links:

After installation, remember to run the SharePoint 2019 Products Configuration Wizard or the following command:

PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures -cmd secureresources -cmd services -install

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 2019 farm, you must reinstall the language-dependent update afterwards.

Remember to keep Distributed Cache updated as well as SharePoint. See How to update Distributed Cache correctly (in Czech).

Note for this CU:

KB 5002894: Farms using SharePoint Workflow Manager need KB 5002799 installed before this CU.

KB 5002896: If the farm runs 2013-type workflows, install the August 2025 SharePoint Workflow Manager update before this CU.

To keep using Classic Workflow Manager, enable its debug flag with:

      $farm = Get-SPFarm
      $farm.ServerDebugFlags.Add(53601)
      $farm.update()
      iisreset

The release version of SharePoint Server 2019 must already be installed.
