- A new update for Windows 11 24h2 does not make the installation for some
- Although this has happened before, the reports seem more widespread with the July update
- There are also other concerns such as overheating problems and Buggy mouse behavior
The latest update of Windows 11 (for the 24H2 version) refuses to install for some people – which is not a new problem – and there are scattered reports of other problems concerning the July update.
Windows the last reports that he underwent an installation failure itself, by which the update seemed to work, but by restarting to finish, Windows 11 ends up falling the upgrade (with an error).
Many readers of the technological site have echoed this experience, the July update failed completely for them (not even reaching the restart phase) or being stuck before hitting 100%. There are other reports on the update freezing the PC, also requiring material reset.
In addition to that, there are several complaints on Reddit about installation failures, which all occur with the usual and useless strange and useless error codes (such as “0x8007371b” to choose an example, which means nothing – and Google will not help either).
In this Thread Reddit, there are also various reports of all kinds of problems, some of which can only affect individual users – and which can be aberrant values with their system – but there are some notable bugs that appear on several occasions.
They include the stuttering of a user’s mouse after applying the update – or the “flashing mouse the loading icon every two seconds” – as well as general performance problems and a crackling audio in a few cases.
Some people also encounter heat -related problems, with a complaint that the update has made a Snapdragon X Plus Run Hotter laptop. Another person said their notebook also had difficulties with heat and high use of the GPU, others observed high processor temperatures.
There are also some problems reported with USB devices and quays.
Finally, Microsoft said that a problem with the Windows 11 firewall by which its journalization errors which are in fact false, have been resolved with the July update, but many users declare that this is not the case.
So, if you see errors related to the firewall, ignore them. The right thing is that it is a completely harmless bug, and nothing is really bad with the system of the system. Ironically, error messages are errors.
Analysis: Keep a watchful eye on these bugs
Although complaints concerning the failure of updates are not uncommon, there seems to be more than normal with this most recent update for Windows 11. Okay, so the chances are really that you will not meet this bug, and these are probably relatively insulated incidents in the situation as a whole. However, the fact that these problems seem more widespread than usual is always a red flag.
If you meet such an installation failure, you can try to manually install the July update instead (in the Microsoft update catalog). I would not recommend that for anyone but more Windows 11 Users, for most people, I suggest you wait for installation problems to be calculated by Microsoft. Yes, you will be without the latest security fixes for a while, which is not ideal – so keep this in mind and be very sure in terms of navigation habits (or other information).
(There is no guarantee that a manual installation will work either, it should be remembered – some on Reddit have observed that only a complete reinstallation of Windows 11 did the trick for them, which is obviously a very drastic step to take. An upgrade is another option explained in this post, but again, it is only for the most confident on the technical level).
The promised firewall solution – which does not work – is strange, although a correction does not really solve a bug as expected is hardly a first for Microsoft. However, this is not a real problem, as indicated.
Some of the overheating problems are much more disturbing, but as the reports are still relatively thin on the field, we cannot yet draw conclusions. These are really worth monitored to see if more complaints in this direction appear. Ditto with the erratic behavior of the mouse and the problems with the USB peripherals.
