Microsoft has confirmed a problem with the latest security update for Windows 11, marking a new chapter in the series of problematic updates. The update in question, KB5034765, for Windows 11 versions 22H2 and 23H2, was released earlier this month to provide essential security fixes.
Windows 11 still left a bitter taste for users who tried to install this patch encountered unexpected difficulties, the installation process stuck at 96% and generated error 0x800F0922. This issue is not unique, with previous updates also bringing similar challenges to the Windows 11 user community.
Windows 11 is experiencing a problematic update, but Microsoft's official acknowledgment of the problem is a rare step in company communication. In a published update note for Windows 11, Microsoft explains in detail about encountering installation failures for the February 2024 security update, noting that the system may become unresponsive.
Windows 11 has a New PROBLEM with an Update Recognized by Microsoft, the Company Says
In addition to installation issues, users have also reported other glitches associated with this update, including problems with the Start menu and taskbar, as well as drops in system performance. Despite the lack of an official comment from Microsoft regarding these additional issues, the company has provided a temporary solution.
Windows 11 may still have solved these problems to a certain extent, and for this it is recommended to delete the hidden folder C:$WinREAgent and a possible restart of the system, a solution that could allow the successful installation of the update, although Microsoft has not confirmed in officially this for someone.
Microsoft is committed to fixing this issue and promises an update for Windows 11 in the near future. This incident underscores the importance of extensive testing before releasing updates and reminds the Windows user community to be vigilant and apply appropriate security practices. In an ever-changing digital world, such challenges highlight the need for adaptability and rapid response from developers and users alike.
