KB5077181 was released about a month ago as part of the February Patch Tuesday rollout. When the update first arrived, users reported a wide range of problems, including boot loops, login errors, and installation issues.

Microsoft has now acknowledged another problem linked to the same update. Some affected users see the message “C:\ is not accessible – Access denied” when trying to open the system drive.

What would happen if you trained an AI entirely and solely on Microslop's knowledge base?

It would be stuck on thousands of missing articles and unable to go back due to a bunch of redirects, like a sketchy page from the 90s.

A lot of people didnt read the issue. This was an issue with the samsung connect app.

Ugh... I'm so tired of "microslop" and "AI slop".

I'm not defending Microsoft in any way, but they were releasing buggy updates long before the rise of AI.

They’ve earned that name at this point

I agree, but if microslop can be the downfall of microslop I will jump on the bang wagon. I think they should add more IA. Did they try live GenIA update of the user system yet ? Sound a money making idea.

Who could have possibly predicted that an operating system with vibe code in the kernel would be complete ass

Hopefully this doesn't give Microslop executives the idea of turning it into a feature to force their users to save their files onto OneDrive

Solution: install linux

Just like I have been calling macOS "NonfreeBSD" I will now be calling Windows 11 "Slop_OS"

[–] mazzilius_marsti@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

ffs how can at this much further into Windows cycle, and we still have shit like this? I mean the main drive is the most important one, I can understand if this happens to Win 1 or 2 but after soo many iterations? Just no.

This should be yet another opportunity for Windows refugees to come to the Kingdom of Torvalds.

Some slop for you.

Some slop for you.

Some slop for you.

Anyone else want slop?

I'm sick of it. I had 4 different problems with it this year at work. And we are paying them money for it....

[–] Denalduh@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Hmm.. I should start updating my work computer since the "IT" got upgraded my pc to 11 to fix a problem that wasn't fixed with the upgrade.

[–] pkjqpg1h@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Microsoft should start scratch

Clearly the fix is boot in Linux
