It joins a series of other issues affecting this update, particularly incompatibilities with audio devices and certain Ubisoft games.
A bug linked to Windows 11 installation media?
Microsoft has just alerted users once again about a issue with Windows 11 manual installation media. According to the announcement, these particularly affect media created with the October and November 2024 updates.
These media, including USB and CD installers, may prevent new installations from receiving crucial security updates. This bug particularly affects professional users and enthusiasts who build their own PCs.
Microsoft certifies that this bug is in the list of known issues for Windows 11 (version 24H2). The latter affects devices configured with these specific media.
It is important to note that PCs that received October and November 2024 patches via Windows Update or the Microsoft Update catalog are not affected by this bug. If you are affected by this bug, you probably want to know how to resolve it?
Microsoft recommends that users rebuild their manual installation media of Windows 11. And this, including the December 2024 update (released on December 10) to resolve the problem. She also advisesuse media containing the patch of December from the start to avoid any disruption.
This bug is not the only problem encountered with Windows 11 version 24H2. Users have also reported other issues, namely bugs affecting some audio devices. We also recorded Outlook malfunctions linked to obsolete Google Workspace synchronization. The same goes for incompatibilities with certain Ubisoft games.
Fortunately, Microsoft points out that fixes are being deployed for these problems. The company is also working on a permanent fix for the installation media bug.
Certainly, the company is working on a permanent solution, but I think users need to be extra vigilant to ensure the security and stability of their devices. And you, what do you think? Share your opinion in the comments!
