They've done it again! From not being able to shut down to not booting into Windows at all! Praise Salad Nutella and the Windows AI vibe coding future

 

[LiquidMetal14]

What the hell man lol

This is so stupid

 

[Sticks]

 

[Topher]

Same shit...

 

[Skifi28]

Shit, just updated the work laptop.

 

[Bojji]

 

[Celcius]

Oof I just installed this like 2 days ago. No issues here so far but I miss the old Microsoft. You know, the competent one.

 

[neo raider]

That's why im still on extended windows 10

 

[Bark]

I can see why people want a pc hybrid xbox, when windows is this reliable.

 

[roosnam1980]

 

[Gaiff]

Honestly does. It's a case of if happens or it doesn't, but man is Microsoft fucking incompetent.

Competent one?

 

[Gonzito]

No issues here. What's going in with Microsoft man, they break stuff all the time

 

[GrayChild]

Save us, Gabe. Release the Steam OS desktop version already!

 

[Saber]

Ladies and gentlemen, do you know what time is?
Yes ladies and gentlemen, it's your favotire thing of day.
Folks, it's time for "What did Windows break up this time".

 

[Bojji]

Honestly does. It's a case of if happens or it doesn't, but man is Microsoft fucking incompetent.

This I think is linked to the update that was already reported to causing issues. Today MS released some patches if you have "get the latest updates" checked on.

Found some video about what OP is talking about:



MS should really hire their QA people again...

 

[phant0m]

reminder to all there's plenty of folks here that have great gaming experience with Bazzite and CachyOS

 

[PauloRoberto]

Competent one?

That's the crazyest thing... if you compare Windows 7 dev cycle with current Win11 state... yeah, MS looked more competent back there (im not neutral, i was a Win7 beta tester, so...)

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

I upgraded from 10 (which I already debloted) and I haven't had any issue with 11 (outside random performance issues and some visual bugs).

But yeah, debloat windows make miracles with this shit

 

[YCoCg]

AI will be the QA, it's doing a great job!

 

[Miles708]

I wonder if there's the ground for a lawsuit, especially in the corporate environment

 

[Teslerum]

Same.

Somehow I've been extremely lucky with windows 11. Barely had issues so far.

Found some video about what OP is talking about:

Quite honestly a very similiar issue I did have. With a much older update. Fixed it then via the windows update troubleshooter (IIRC).

 

[LiquidMetal14]

reminder to all there's plenty of folks here that have great gaming experience with Bazzite and CachyOS

I use windows by choice mainly because it's a habit. I've gone Bazzite on my last 2 ROG Ally's including the Xbox Ally. Not going back on those. I need to continue to test my everyday needs.

It's not in jest that I say I am closer to having a permanent drive just for Linux/Steam OS the more time goes on. Just need the drivers to get better for nvidia and for the work to continue to make it so. The industry cannot be held captive by Microsoft anymore. This is way out of hand and more people are simply getting tired of this.

 

[John Bilbo]

Motherfuckers.

 

[LordOfChaos]

I feel like every major providers software has been dogshit for a decade+ and no one's doing anything to improve it

Since iOS26 months ago the ellipsis menu on photos will just close itself 6 times before staying open, notifications while being touched and scrolled will lock the screen, no one gives a shit anymore as the stuff still sells. For Microsoft also Windows just isn't the bread and butter anymore as Azure and AI datacenter have been the major growth centers.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

At this point I feel like Microsoft is running a cruel social experiment where they test how much they can randomly break the operating system that 90% of the world computers use without causing an angry response

 

[nemiroff]

I installed those a week ago, no issues.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

Me, on Linux:

 

[Broad Spectrum]

Yes, in the past few months we've had Windows updates that break system boot up, gaming performance, notepad, the ability to shut a computer down, snipping tool, armory crate, and even updates that cause hard drive failures or data corruption, but I would like to remind everyone not to switch to Linux for gaming because you may have to tinker.

 

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

This company and their OS are absolutely pathetic. They should be ashamed and have their business license up for re-evaluation. Pushing updates that brick systems is very anti-consumer and should entitle affected people to a reimbursement of their system & lost/corrupted data paid out by Microsoft themselves.

 

[ShaiKhulud1989]

 

[winjer]

The russian roulette of Windows updates...

 

[PurePlatinum]

Mac + console remains an undefeated combo, for me at least.

 

[Dorfdad]

what's the hold up with anticheat on Linux. I know it has to do with the kernel access which is a no go but there are a few games like cod/fortnite/ and more that are staples of gaming that will never work! We need a solution so windows can flat out die! Tired a few Linux builds and was happy with them but missing out on a few of my must haves!!

 

[Aressa]

Sadly it did NOT brick my work laptop. Damn you Windows at least be consistent.

 

[adamsapple]

I upgraded from 10 (which I already debloted) and I haven't had any issue with 11 (outside random performance issues and some visual bugs).

But yeah, debloat windows make miracles with this shit

Is debloat a separate iso or just steps you take to turn off services and shit?

New Windows 11 Emergency Updates Are Out to Fix Cloud-Based Storage Issues

Microsoft released yesterday a second wave of Windows 11 emergency updates to address an issue causing some apps to become unresponsive when saving files to cloud storage services.

www.thurrott.com

They also, apparently, botched cloud storage. Which is just deliciously ironic.

Some anti-cheats work. Some will never be permitted by developers.

steam is drm, just use linux.

 

[Spukc]

Microsoft forced me to login into my microsheit account when trying to play forza horizon 5.

Then the authentication process took a shit on me not being able to play my 80 euro game offline.

Fuck em

 

[xrnzaaas]

Third party software used to delay / block system updates must be exploding in popularity.

 

[Mithos]

Have had the KB5074109 update installed on all computers running W11 since like the 16th of January, so far no issues.

Even have a NEW update on all computers, KB5078127 waiting for installation.

 

[Spyxos]

Give me steam os. Cant wait to move over.

I had exactly the described problem a month ago after a win update.

A PS5 would be better for you if you play multiplayer games.

I already have a ps5, but i dont play mp games there anymore. Since i dont pay for ps plus.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Terrible company.

 

[RoboFu]

sounds about right.

its why I moved my work to solely Mac and Linux.

 

[StereoVsn]

Is debloat a separate iso or just steps you take to turn off services and shit?

You can approach it either way. You can pre-create a bootable USB that basically won't install items that you (more likely a utility you would use) specify.

Or you can install Windows and run debloat scripts or utilities. Chris Titus' util is one example.

GitHub - ChrisTitusTech/winutil: Chris Titus Tech's Windows Utility - Install Programs, Tweaks, Fixes, and Updates

Chris Titus Tech's Windows Utility - Install Programs, Tweaks, Fixes, and Updates - ChrisTitusTech/winutil

github.com

In either case I recommend using an Enterprise or LTSC key if you can (can be had pretty cheap online) and if that's out of the picture at least Pro. Home has too many limitations.

Edit: Also, I am pretty sure you can convert Pro to Enterprise without reinstalling. Not sure about Home. But going to LTSC will require I reinstall I believe.

 

[Insane Metal]

What a mess. I don't think they'll ever get it right with those 'on the go' updates.

 

[moogman]

I wonder if there's the ground for a lawsuit, especially in the corporate environment

Most IT teams will be pushing out updates after they've been tested by QA (the public)
