Microsoft has done it again

Microsoft Update has borked my comptuer (again)

Saturday, September 28, 2024 by BigDogBigFeet | Discussion: Personal Computing

So, on Friday morning 09/27/2024 everything was fine.  Then about 10:00am Windows 11 updated and all hell happened.  What it is doing is blocking things from running at all.  Most programs will not load or run at all.

I get one session of Edge once I close it nothing will run again not Edge, Explorer, or Start Panel will display. I have to do a hard reboot with the power button to get one session of Edge again.  F. U. Microsoft.

How they did this is in settings they changed my preferences to allow them to install preview builds, I am certain I had that shutoff.  Who the hell wants their bug-ridden builds, not me.  I shut it off again.

I then tried PC retore with that feature shut-off and it ran and re-installed the latest preview build.  Fail.

I then looked on-line, and MS-Net has article stating KB5043145 has flaws and users reporting issues.  Said DISM/online/Remove-Package KB 5043145 would work to remove it.  It didn't again Fail.

I tried going to genuine MC Chat for support at Microsoft.com.  After waiting for 19 people with You're next in line prompt for 20 minutes no one ever responded.  Fail.

Microsoft is failing its customers.  Who the hell would want to buy anything from them with this lack support?

Puzzled. Acronis isn't enough for both system and data backup?

It is, but if you do things like in-game graphics for something like FSX you can have a massive database that's not necessarily on your OS drive...and sometimes disc images are a little too sledgehammer to crack a nut big.

I keep 'trimming' my FSX by archiving [removing] planes I'm not currently using...but even with that my FSX is on a separate partition of my M.2 drive ...and is 218gig with over 286000 files ...

Pelaird and I both store current dick images (clones) on external disks.

Doc!!! There is no reason that we need to know where you keep "those" images!!!

LMAO!

That would be "disk", Phoon...as in, "Don't be a disk." 

Thanks for spotting that...err...thanks for bringing that to my attention, old friend.
