- Home windows 11 24H2 has run into but extra bugs
- They have an effect on Ubisoft video games and trigger them to freeze up in a nasty manner
- There’s additionally a bug with an encryption app hitting Dell’s laptops
Home windows 11 24H2 appears to run into increasingly more issues because the replace continues to roll out, and right here’s one other bunch of recent points which upgraders have encountered.
For starters, one of the crucial latest bugs to rear its head represents a spot of bother for PC players (once more), as flagged up on Microsoft’s launch well being standing dashboard.
This one pertains to issues with Ubisoft video games whereby some titles can change into “unresponsive whereas beginning, loading or throughout energetic gameplay” with this leading to a black display crash in some circumstances.
The video games affected are as follows:
- Murderer’s Creed Valhalla
- Murderer’s Creed Origins
- Murderer’s Creed Odyssey
- Star Wars Outlaws
- Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
We’re informed that Ubisoft has launched a patch for Star Wars Outlaws which means the sport will not freeze up, however gamers would possibly nonetheless encounter technical hitches by way of unspecified ‘efficiency points,’ so we are able to guess which means some bouts of sluggish body charges, maybe.
On high of that, there’s one other gremlin inflicting havoc in 24H2 for some USB gadgets, primarily USB standalone scanners, as Microsoft once more explains in its dashboard.
Home windows Newest additionally noticed that Dolby Digital sound gained’t work in Home windows 11 24H2, with a recent set up, that’s, because the Dolby Audio decoders aren’t preinstalled within the OS as of 24H2. So, on this case, you’ll have to manually set up them.
Lastly, the tech web site additionally seen that there’s a bug with Dell PCs with a sure app which means they gained’t hibernate or shut down, a fairly main clanger it needs to be stated.
This occurs when Home windows 11 24H2 is put in on a Dell machine with an older model of the Dell Encryption app, as confirmed by the laptop computer maker itself.
In a help doc, Dell tells us: “Dell Encryption v11.9 and earlier aren’t appropriate with 24H2 and shouldn’t be put in to these computer systems.”
Word that this app is one thing you’ll see in a enterprise setting, so the percentages are that this isn’t one you’ll have to fret about – nevertheless it’s nonetheless one thing to concentrate on, given the influence right here, in case you have a Dell pocket book for working from house, for instance.
Evaluation: Hell for Dell, and Ubisoft too
So, for individuals who do have such a Dell laptop computer, it’s good to watch out right here, as failing to close down the PC is a fairly essential bug. What’s extra worrying right here is that as Home windows Newest observes, Microsoft hasn’t but positioned a maintain on the 24H2 replace for PCs working Dell Encryption v11.9 or earlier – usually, these techniques must be blocked from the improve as a result of this incompatibility drawback.
No less than this was the case on the time of writing, and the present recommendation is to be sure you have Dell Encryption v11.10 (or higher) put in earlier than you seize the 24H2 replace. Your Dell PC could have already up to date that app, optimistically, however we wouldn’t take that without any consideration.
The excellent news is that the bug extra more likely to have an effect on our readers – with the Ubisoft video games – does have an improve block in place. So, in case you have the talked about video games put in, the 24H2 replace gained’t be provided to you. Additionally, don’t attempt to fudge your manner round that compatibility block by manually putting in 24H2 (by utilizing, say, the media creation device), as that may finish in tears (or your PC video games crashing, relatively).
As talked about on the outset, there are a rising variety of issues with the 24H2 replace, so we are able to’t think about the rollout shall be opening as much as much more PCs anytime quickly. Microsoft has a number of fixing to do right here, work that’s already occurring to be truthful.
