Microsoft’s latest Windows 11 preview, KB5043145, is causing significant problems for users. The update, released last week as a preview for the upcoming October Patch Tuesday, has led to numerous stability issues and complaints.
Can anyone remember a Microsoft update in the last few years that wasn’t causing crashes and failures?
Yeah. Windows XP SP2 was a more reliable OS than SP1
Are you referring to the pinnacle of human existence?
I think it was around that time when I switched to Gentoo Linux
Truly the pinnacle of my existence, and as it seems, it was a wise choice
Like, most of them? It’s an experimental channel and the amount of overall updates dwarfs those that do the funny, yadda-yadda. The funnier thing though is they have a total grip on everything, all resources and brains, dedicated testers, and therefore have no reason to fail at all. Yet, the stability of Windows is worse than on popular Linux distros even when it doesn’t BSOD.
That whole company will go the way of Intel. Imagine having a virtual monopoly on a colossal market and becoming this greedy and complacent.
I wish but life isn’t fair, that’s a Hollywood fairy tale

I think Microsoft has been using copilot a bit too much 😹
Weird, I haven’t been experiencing any of this. Am I still at risk of running into this issue if I haven’t seen it so far? I don’t use this shit-ass OS, if that helps.
Anyone still using Windows is definitely at risk by virtue of being a fucking loser.

Lemme sum that up for you:
LatestWindows11 preview updateis causing widespread system crashes and failuresWho is even installing preview updates? Why?
Only way I could get a bunch of drivers for my new laptop. Had no Webcam, no sound and only limited TouchPad functionality until I installed a preview version
Just get the drivers from manufacturers website. What laptop is it?
I did, they didn’t work until I installed the preview version. I think this hardware is too new. I have the Asus ProArt 16 with Ryzen 9 HX 735
Ohhh, yeah I suppose if it’s brand spanking new it might be designed for a certain minimum version. Not common but possible.
Is this different that usual for Windows?
I wouldn’t know…
Careful this might strike the crowd
