What changes does SharePoint configuration wizard do?

What changes does SharePoint configuration wizard do?

This is a common question for most of the administrators, asking me the same by different SharePoint Admins, Most of the times after we install any CU or SP we must run the Products and Technologies configuration wizard, why? Here is the answer.

Answer:
1.      When we run the “Configuration Wizard “ it updates the database schema to the latest version
2.     When we run the “Configuration Wizard “ it fixes security settings on the file system to match what SharePoint needs
3.     When we run the “Configuration Wizard “ it will copies required binaries from the install location into the _app_bin directories of the web applications
4.     When we run the “Configuration Wizard “ it updates features registrations with SharePoint

Note: It is also recommended to run the PSConfig wizard once the security patches is installed, but most of the times we don’t run.
