It hasn't been a full week since Windows 10 was sent to the pasture, and its four-year-old successor has had an update introduce multiple bugs.

See full article...
 
Par for the course. Wasn't really any different when it was just called Win10 though. Or Win8.

Don't recall Win7 being this bad, but it's been a while since they actively did anything for that and I may have had a few beers since then.
 
my take... this is exactly what happens when you have AI basically writing code. It's not capable enough for work like this and only focuses on the specific goal not the holistic approach.

Writing code with AI is like having an enthusiastic intern high on drugs working for you. It will confidently tell you things that aren't true, use functions that never existed. But it's still helpful because it does the busy work, all you have to do is clean up its mistakes. But MS probably already uses AI for QA too.

Especially since during the Win10 days they got rid of all the QA testers and were forcing the programmers to test their own code. That sure worked out well. I doubt they hired a whole buncha new testers for Win11. Why pay humans when AI can do it? They don't need to do a better job, just a cheaper job.

I hope that is a fake headline, a fake article, and a joke.

Explains how they churn out so much crap. I logged into the 365 Online portal for the first time in a long time the other day and the amount of random crapware that exists there is astonishing.

And then, just now, I think -- oh a screen shot of that would be perfect for this post!

I go there, and only get the "See plans" and "Try for Free" - I can't get to the Sign in Button....

So yeah... I only say I doubt that article because I think he's lowballing that number.
 
So what you're saying here is. Grim is right. We should trust in Grim.

And to that I say...

Thank you. But I'm so humble I already knew that but wasn't going to state the obvious. ;)
 
The only logical explanation of how can a hotfix break a completely unrelated thing is if they are using AI to fix bugs.
 
Just let me put the **** start bar at the top of my screen MS. I honestly don't give a **** or have beef with Windows 11 outside of this issue.

Windows have all been more or less reskins of each other after 7. It's all the same inside power shell.
 
Had a user bring me their work laptop because it had an update giving problems. I fully expected it to be the current cumulative update that's been giving grief to so many. However, I was not prepared to find out the laptop had been to the future and back.

I think I figured it out, and it's not AI that's causing all these issues at Microsoft. NVIDIA finally let go of that intern who was releasing all those buggy drivers when the 50-series launched, and they landed an exec position in Microsoft's QA division.

And on that note . . .

False "End of Support" Warning Appears in Windows 10 Despite Extended Support

Microsoft has acknowledged the issue on its Windows 10 OS installations that are incorrectly displaying "end of support" messages, despite the installation running on Extended Security Updates (ESUs). While Windows 10 reached end of life on October 14, Microsoft offers extended support for...
