Probably that developers that made the thing can't fix the thing. Implies that windows 10 is so complex that they can't fix it or that devs are incompetent.
It is funny, because windows is most popular desktop OS and has issues like this.
The problem is the fix has to go in the recovery partition which is already so bloated the patch can't fit in the default size. To fix it they'd have to automatically frick with users' disk partition sizes and if they ever decide that's OK I'm turning off windows update forever

MS is shit. I was able to install this update without issues but subsequent patch gave an unknown error.
Turned off update since. On fricking iot ltsc.
My corporate office had MS people just absolutely fall over themselves to talk to upper management about the XZ backdoor. It's seriously hard to believe how much rhetoric there has been around the claim that yes, vulnerabilities don't really happen in Windows.
This shit is always funny because the boomers always doubt the MS reps when they say shit like this, but for the most moronic reasons possible. >erm my home PC got a virus twice this year, maybe don't call your OS more secure?
My boomer boss still has me do a monthly review for shellshock and then heartbleed, because all these open source vulnerabilities are clearly the biggest threat we could ever face and it's definitely not that all the legal team's mailboxes got exceptions for MFA
Windows is still the only OS directly associated with "virus", I doubt marketing prostitutes can convince people otherwise who literally experienced it themselves
I attended a presentation on cloud security and the speaker (Microsoft employee) emphasised "secure development practices" multiple times, followed by "log4j".
Yet in my experience, the worst reimagepocalypses and patchpocalypses happened due to flaws in Microsoft software, not Java or XZ.
Like, a Bitlocker bypass, or Exchange server takeover, or NotPetya won't happen due to log4j.
>, linux is very stable and doesn’t break on package or kernel updates
i've been using linux since 2001 and you must be the luckiest Black person alive because nearly everyone that's used linux in their life have encountered a package installation or removal gone wrong.
Problems can be reduced by running stable distro versions, and unless one is a legit developer (and they can run bleeding edgs shit in a VM) or their computer is a pure toy which does nothing important stable, long term releases are fine.
Even Debian is easy today but Xubuntu LTS is even easier and does what I require of it. I started using Linux in 1999 but do not use it for spergreasons.
which part of "screeching for half a fricking year over a problem that's fixed in 30 seconds" did you not understand you brain dead subhuman Black person?
they're problematic as is already, I imagine if they started partitioning, which their built in tools already suck ass in, it'd be quite the shitshow of blue screens for the end user
So Microsoft is now deploying broken security updates for 10 to force users to move on to 11? Shouldn't they get investigated by the government for that?
The most embarrassing part is not that they can't fix it, but the fact that the update is completely useless for 99% of Windows users, but instead of retiring it, the update keeps retrying to reinstall every day for five fricking months already.
You also have to turn bitlocker off and then on again, if you have it. Also a lot of machines had two recovery partitions, plus some goobletyasiatic partition that doesn't do anything but you can't move things around it while it's there, both of which had to be removed and rearranged so that there was enough space to the right of C: and I believe to fix this on our machines I had to reboot everything twice and in the mean time no one could use whatever machine I was working on.
Following the instructions as published by Microsoft won't even work if at some point you ran cleanmgr, because you'll no longer have a copy of the WinRE image in your main partition (it's removed as unnecessary because technically you don't need a recovery image since you already have a recovery partition).
You have to download a Windows ISO, mount it, mount the WIM file with the installation files, copy the WIM file with the recovery image, and finally enable the recovery partition again. Only then the update will finally install.
The worst part about this is that if someone tried to download the instructions as published by Microsoft but gives up before doing all this shit, not only the update will still refuse to install but he'll also lose the recovery partition, so his system will also be completely unable to recover from a future botched update. Win-win.
Not to mention that depending on your backup solution, you might need to reconfigure some settings since the partitions on your disk will be different. What an absolute shitshow.
>will also be completely unable to recover from a future botched update
There is no scenario where a Windows botched update can't be recovered from with the right recovery disc.
>the right recovery disc >picrel
lol. True though. Frick with partitions in the wrong way and Windows might suddenly decide it doesn't know how to boot anymore. I think one time I had a gap in the partition numbering and that was enough to break everything despite C: being before that gap.
You have to remember to deactivate the RE with reagent first so it recalls the wim to the windows folder, otherwise you just deleted it and need a donor. I forgot to do this by the third machine i had to visit. Was not amused.

The developers who made the thing retired 20 years ago.
Skill issue. MS won't see morons still having 250 MB recovery partition. Expand it.
Azure images Microsoft made after acknowledging this issue still ship with a 250MB partition and fail to install this update.
I though closed source software was safe from vulnerabilities like these?

just install NixOS
I've been runnin dead ian stable for as long as I remember and it just hasn't broken ever.
>requires physical access
It's not the vuln, it's the fact that MS literally can't fix it without forcing users to frick with partitions.
The entire corporate world is windows laptops with bitlocker.
normies not giving a shit about IT property is tale as old as time. read: corporate espionage effortless
literally the only thing bitlocker does is protect your data from people with physical access
so it literally doesn't work at all
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Windows is cobbled together with duct tape that I'm surprised it even functions at this point
11 is pretty solid tbh
would not go back to 10
yep see what I mean, only a shill would say this
>everyone who disagrees with me is a shill
bruh i try linux every year
every year it is an inferior desktop
the frick you want from me
a minimal ammount of effort.
>you need to put in effort to use an os in 2024
what is this dog shit os?
>whoosh
I should have guessed
shutup redditgay nobody is going to use your shitty os
>every year I expect linux to work the exact same way as windows so I don't have to learn anything
FTFY
please elaborate why you would think windows 11 has the upper hand on 10? I'm really interested
So's Linux. Only Microsoft devs can't admit to themselves that windows is no different.
What part of "without forcing users to frick with partitions" do you not understand?
which part of "screeching for half a fricking year over a problem that's fixed in 30 seconds" did you not understand you brain dead subhuman Black person?
that's some nice violent language you got there
It's a commercial product. If I wanted to fix it myself, I'd use Troonix.
>troonix
>as opposed to windows, the OS that puts an impossible to remove pride flag on your taskbar every june
Projecting much?
freetards are litetally insane it seems, not just insane but also moronic, truly a powerful combination
Tell that to the billion other people using it, or even Microsoft not being able to write a basic automated process that does this for users.
Remember, the average normie freaks the frick out any time they see a command line.
It'd be fricking horrific if Microsoft started doing partitioning through updates
why
they're problematic as is already, I imagine if they started partitioning, which their built in tools already suck ass in, it'd be quite the shitshow of blue screens for the end user
If they frick up simpler updates imagine what they could frick up with automatic partitioning
Holy moronation
>Holy moronation
No one linked any article and I'm not giving traffic to your favorite search engine.

Kek took you a long ass while to figure out there was a article, just that nobody had spoonfed it to you
So Microsoft is now deploying broken security updates for 10 to force users to move on to 11? Shouldn't they get investigated by the government for that?
Problem exists on 11 as well, but has been fixed in newer ISOs.
>shouldn't the government investigate the government?
>glowies have investigated their fellow glowies and have concluded that their fellow glowies are not guilty
Hyuk hyuk hyuk hyuk
The most embarrassing part is not that they can't fix it, but the fact that the update is completely useless for 99% of Windows users, but instead of retiring it, the update keeps retrying to reinstall every day for five fricking months already.
>Linux devs admit they won't fix anything
do governments not run w10? why aren't they blasting microsoft over this?
Because they use their own WSUS server. So they can filter out bad updates. (provided they knew it was bad to begin with. They usually do.)

So, don't update?
Does it brick an OS with bitlocker encryption only? I've never used it, should I update?
oyyyy its impossible to fix, better upgrade to 11, stupid fricking goiym cattle
What do I do?
Naw it's all good. Says so right here.
