I am using three drives on that list. Uninstalled KB5063878 and blocked updates for over a month.
I’m using several of them too, but the update refuses to uninstall. Oh well, fingers crossed eh? Thanks Microsoft.
Hmm, mine uninstalled without issue but I haven’t yet fully rebooted. Might still get an error at that point. Fingers crossed.
EDIT: reboot completed without issue. Guess I’ve been lucky. My main drive is not one of the affected ones and I didn’t write anything noteworthy to the affected ones when the update was installed, so should be all good from here out.
Just vibecoding a kernel module, nothing out of the ordinary at Microsoft.

I thought 10 was fine too, didn’t like the new menu bullshit though. I use Arch by the way.

Ouch. Glad I don’t run Windows 11…
I was able to roll-back this update. But my computer is still running Windows. Help!
Yeah I remember when Linux Update did this . . . oh wait, no I don’t.
Oh look a whole new reason to avoid windows 11.
What does NG Lv 1 mean?
I’ve read in another article that NG Lv 1 means that the drive is recoverable and NG Lv 2 that the drive is unrecoverable.
This Post was the final straw for me. Just spent the afternoon setting up Linux Mint Mate and it’s working well so far!
I so much want to, but the programs I run are partly windows only. I don’t know how to switch yet. Next to that, I tried Linux once but was unable to reach netwerk drives from my NAS. I tried everything, none of the solutions I found actually worked. I seem to have a curse running into issues no one else had. Struggling my whole life with that. Today I spent the entire day fixing Kodi, which suddenly stopped working. None of the solutions on internet worked. I managed to fix it my own way, eventually. Just to play a video without losing my “videos watched”.
MS is working hard to force me though. I’m almost as far as to say goodbye to apps I’ve used my whole life. Like Directory Opus for example.
Yeah, at some point ‘cabt on linux’ becomes synonymous with ‘cant’
*Glares at work computer
WELL…? WE’RE WAITING.gif
Please hit my work computer plz plz plz
Just update, find a script to repeatedly write a 50gb file filled with garbage, and pray it kills your drive.
All of my computers are working just fine.
Same, thankfully 🫣
Again, why are people paying money for this bullshit?
This is just normal and on par for Microsoft. When was the last time they didn’t fix a security issue because they didn’t wanted the bad publicity, causing the US government to be hacked?
Oohh, we will never do it again, pinky promise!
Microsoft’s evil but oh my fucking god, they’re so incompetent that they can’t even be evil without fucking shit up
Install Linux already,.be done with the nonsense
Every thread has one Linux bro, stumbling around dazed and confused, still searching to understand why people use a different OS. Always asking “Why do people even use that?” Ignorant of the litany of reasons the real world behaves the way it does.
Windows sucks, in a lot of ways, we get it. But holy hell find a different schrick.
I understand why people use different operating systems. Ill judge you for mac os but i kinda get it. I think slackware or something works for some use cases.
Windows is just ijsane though. You’re insane for using it.
Just the one? You block the rest of us already?
This was the push I needed to get off Windows completely. Some update broke Bluetooth connectivity. It’s penguins all the way down for me now.
Even though switching my laptop to Linux was a bit of a pain, especially for other family members, i didn’t regret it at all before. This just makes it even more reassuring as the right move.
Even the programs I had that rely on windoze I just run in wine or in a small vm.
If you can switch, do it!
