Quicken Patch w5119 safe?

Two days ago, when QW Subscription started it asked if I wanted to install "quicken.Patch\w5119\self update.sup".
After the May release, I am reluctant to update QW. This is second I have refused. The description is not tied to any published update I see for QW subscription.
Is this one safe?

You already asked a similar question about a previous updateNone of us here at the Community are familiar with the numbers (w4429, w5119) you mention ... at least I am not ... and the Quicken programmers haven't responded yet, either.1) Can you include a screen image snapshot of the popup message you are receiving? I'd like to see it.2) Usually I get a Windows UAC prompt asking if "Quicken" is allowed to make changes to the system. I allow it to proceed.
I have upgraded my Quicken 2019 to R 21.16 and encountered no ill effects from the programming changes made by Quicken.
YMMV.If you're not certain about the health of both your Quicken software installation and your active data file, please follow these instructions:
