Several users claim that the most recent security patch for Windows 11, the one codenamed "KB5015814«; could be causing problems. There have been quite a few error codes reported on installation and even some cases of boot loops.
As this is a security update, it is not a patch that you should ignore, since it may cover a major security hole that has been reported recently or would not have been discovered by the community. hackers. This makes it more serious than a normal update, and thus its critical bugs are reported faster.
Windows 11 does not stop receiving problems
The Windows 11 security patch notes with which the problems started only include a line for the highlights of the update:
Addresses security issues with your Windows operating system.
Users have reported information that Microsoft has not wanted to give with this patch. Among them would be that PowerShell transcript logs have been fixed. But it has also been seen that there is a known issue with .Net Framework 3.5 applications not opening and general problems.
Some users have found that disabling .Net Framework 3.5 alongside Malwarebytes before installation may help. Another known issue affects IE mode in Microsoft Edge. Apparently model dialogs can cause Edge to stop responding. Your solution in this case is to use the known issue rollback, which is a bug endemic to this particular patch. IE mode is not something that users use voluntarily, but it is there to support older sites that require the use of Internet Explorer 11, a browser that is practically retired and without support, but that is in Microsoft Edge. That is, it is a problem for users who do not use another browser and go to pages whose support for the Microsoft browser is outdated. And since it's the default Windows browser, it's a notoriously serious problem.
This is not the first time that users have had problems with this type of security updates that are applied automatically. In fact, Windows 11 users are already joking with "the curse of patch tuesdays", which is already a recurring joke. Given this, they always recommend letting the system make a backup of the previous version of the system, even if it takes up a lot of space on the hard drive or SSD; in case you have to resort to it.
