Don’t update Windows. New update breaks computers
Microsoft has rolled back the latest update to Windows 11, known as KB5039302. The reason is simple – it was breaking computers.
The KB5039302 update was released a few days ago, but Microsoft quickly realized it was causing problems and removed it from Windows Update. According to reports, it negatively affected devices running versions 23H2 and 22H2.
Faulty Windows update
The Redmond company admitted that the update broke computers. After installing it, many devices entered the so-called reboot loop. Instead of starting up normally, they kept resetting themselves and it was necessary to revert to an earlier version, from before downloading and installing the KB5039302 update.
After installing the update released on June 26, 2024 (KB5039302), some devices may not restart. Affected systems may restart multiple times and require a recovery operation to restore normal use.
– Microsoft admitted.
Microsoft admitted it was investigating the matter. For now, the update has been removed and will no longer be offered to Windows 11 users. The good news is that it was an optional update, so you had to manually select and install it. That doesn’t change the fact that this is yet another such blunder by the Redmond company.
