Windows 11 24H2 also has problems, these are the most important ones

Windows 11 24H2 is one of the biggest updates Microsoft has released to date for its latest operating system. As I told you a few days ago, this comes with such notable performance improvements that they affect even non-compatible equipment, but I also told you in that article that it was best to wait a reasonable amount of time before installing it, because these types of updates always tend to come with unresolved errors.

I was not wrong, Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 11 24H2 has several problems that were not resolved before its release, and one of them is a bug that can end up generating a blue screen of death. So that you have a very clear idea, I have prepared a summary with all the confirmed bugs and problems in this new version of Windows 11.

Fallouts confirmed on Windows 11 24H2

  • Problemas con los drivers Intel Smart Sound Technologywhich affects drivers 10.29.0.5152 and 10.30.0.5152, and can produce blue screens of death on Intel Core Gen 11 processors. To avoid them we have to install drivers 10.29.00.5714 or 10.30.00.5714 and higher.
  • This update breaks many applications wallpaper customization. Depending on the application we use, the degree of impact will be greater or lesser, and there is nothing we can do, just wait for patches to be released that solve this problem.
  • Problems playing Asphalt 8to such an extent that they can leave the game completely disabled. As in the previous case, we can only wait for Gameloft to release a patch that fixes the problem.
  • Bugs in Easy Anti-Cheat, an anti-cheat application which is integrated into Fortnite and other very popular multiplayer games. The update causes conflicts with Intel Alder Lake processors and the Intel vPro platform.
  • Problemas con Safe Exam Browserwhich we can solve by installing version 3.8.0, whose launch occurred on September 26. All previous versions are causing problems, but Microsoft has confirmed that they are resolved by updating to that version.
  • Failures in fingerprint readersa component that is present in many laptops, and is used as a biometric authentication system. This stops working, and at the moment there is no solution recommended by Microsoft.

What can I say, Microsoft’s quality control of Windows updates It’s not exactly that it shines. The Redmond company has accustomed us to the fact that whenever they release an update it ends up arriving accompanied by major errors, a reality that has led me to generally recommend that you never be the first to update your equipment.

The best is always wait a while so that these errors come out unidentified, and so that they are resolved. There is no minimum recommended time, but in my case I have stopped the updates for two months to avoid any problem, no matter how small it may be.
