In Windows 11 Microsoft made it quite clear, you are the testers. Updates are forced on home users, not corps. Corps get the updates after home users get them all force pushed and field test them.

People absolutely swear that running windows update does not trash your computer, but here we are. Yeah it’s a preview release but it feels they don’t test anything.

My surface with windows 11 has been hit trash. So many unfixed bugs. Dism, sfc, etc say everything is ok. Lol.

To be clear, you’re complaining that a Microsoft test update identified a bug and that bug was fixed prior to the update being rolled out to most users. This is literally what the test system is for.

Indeed, I did qualify my statement as such. But an example for the non testing update release: windows update pushing out bad bios firmware updates to HP computers bricking them this last week, another breaking vpns, and a security updates contributing/causing bsods.

Yeah MS has a mixed record for sure. This proves the system does work though, even if it’s not 100% effective
