- Windows 11’s June update fails to install for some people
- It’s complicated because Microsoft has published an initial update this month – which was interrupted – then a revised corrective that replaced it
- This revised corrective also causes unhappy bugs according to certain reports
The latest Windows 11 update is problematic for some people who cannot even install it, and others encounter problems with the bugs of the correction – or the fact that it does not solve the problems it is supposed to.
We have to rewind a little here for the context, and we remind you that Microsoft has taken a bad start with the Windows 11 24:2m update for June. The initial correction (code name KB5060842) was interrupted after Microsoft discovered that it collided with an anti-triche tool, which means that games using this system would block.
To solve this problem, Microsoft published a second update (Patch KB5063060) which replaced the first fix in Windows Update, but as the latest Windows reports, people come up against installation failures with this upgrade.
Some users meet insensitive and unnecessary error messages usual (bearing error codes devoid of meaning like ‘0x800f0922’), while others say that the revised update is blocked and never ends.
This is based on complaints from the Microsoft feedback center, readers by contacting Windows directly, and publishes on Reddit like this, which describes a disturbing start-up loop (from three to four restarts) before the user returns to Windows 11 to discover that the update installation had not worked.
There are people who also say that they have met bugs with KB5063060. These include reports on the frost of the task bars when the PC wakes up from sleep, and the problems with external monitors turn bad and the forgotten Bluetooth devices (so you must rediscover them each time Windows 11 is restarted).
There are a few more disturbing reports on the PCs ending with the complete frost, so they must be restarted. And there are a few complaints (again on Reddit) which, even after the installation of this second patch – which is supposed to work well with the games that use the Easy anti -key (EAC) – Some games are always problematic.
“I always receive the same problem by playing Star Citizen,” wrote a player. “The glee of random play and the viewer of the Windows event journal displaying EAC error.”
There are other reports on Fortnite and Efootball25 (which were formerly PES), so it seems that not all wrinkles were calculated.
Analysis: Disappointing deployment for June
Installation failures are a long -standing problem with Windows 11 (and Windows 10 by the way). It is therefore not surprising that, given the failure with the initial update, other problems arise now.
As the latest in Windows points out, because there have been two updates this time, there can be problems with the PCs that have already entered KB5060842 and now obtain the second update KB5063060, due to an installed game with EAC installed which is affected by the anti-chick compatibility bug in the first.
In such scenarios, Windows 11 may try to crush the first patch with the second drops Windows Update. Those in this situation should be limited in number, because Microsoft has shot the first patch fairly quickly (so it did not reach many PCs with games that use EAC, at least in theory anyway).
It’s just speculation, but whatever you cut, it was a disorderly deployment of an update (well, a pair of technically updates).
What can you do if you are stuck unable to install the revised June update? An approach is to download the update manually and install it directly, which you can do by entering the file from the Microsoft site (version X64, like that based on ARM is for Snapdragon PCS).
This should settle successfully, but I would rather be suspicious of adopting this approach if you are not a reasonably confident IT user.
Alternatively, you can simply wait until Microsoft, hopefully, sorts any problem behind the scenes on its side, and the update could simply succeed under his own steam later this week. There is no guarantee of this, however, and you are really in a situation less than ideal.
Those who can install the revised update, but who always experience accidents with games (or elsewhere) cannot do much, except to wait and pray to problems are solved. The only other possible route is to uninstall the fix, but this is not recommended because of your departure from your PC without the last cycle of safety fixes provided with each cumulative update for Windows 11. (You will not obtain the latest features, some of which are NIFTY additions).
