Patch KB5046617 continues to surprise with new bugs.
Windows 11, version 24H2 users faced serious issues after installing the November cumulative update. Patch KB5046617, released last week, refuses to run on many users' computers. When you try to update, the system gives you cryptic error codes 0x800f0991 and 0x800f0922, most often this happens about halfway through the process.
Sometimes an update outwardly succeeds, but then a message appears in the Windows Update history about the failure. One of the Reddit users reported an even stranger behavior of the system - the patch was installed several times in a row, despite the supposedly successful completion of each attempt.
Bug complaints flooded popular online platforms, including the Microsoft Answers.com forum. Users actively share their negative experiences and try to find solutions.
The November update was supposed to fix an annoying black screen issue when switching between apps using Alt-Tab. However, the fix worked only for some users, the rest still suffer from this trouble.
Gamers have experienced color distortion in HDR mode - the image has become too bright. Moreover, some computers began to spontaneously reboot not only during games, but also when performing normal tasks
After installing the KB5046617, users began to lose icons on the taskbar. Owners of USB devices connected through hubs report a loss of operability of their peripherals.
A separate problem affected the owners of Lenovo laptops - their keyboard and touchpad stopped working. Experts recommend disabling the Fast Startup feature as a temporary solution.
Users still suffering from slow Alt-Tab switching are offered two options: disable Game Mode or update your graphics card drivers. This is especially true for owners of NVIDIA GPUs, although the update may also help owners of AMD or Intel cards.
On the forums, there is a lot of discussion about whether the update installation fails in cases where the system reports an error after the fact. Users are trying to figure out whether the successful installation message can be trusted, or whether they should focus on subsequent error notifications.
According to analysts, Windows 11 update problems arise regularly, but the current situation with conflicting system messages looks non-standard and requires special attention from developers.
Many hope for the next patch to be released soon, which should fix both old and new problems of version 24H2. The community jokingly compares Microsoft's work to a game of whack-a-mole, where fixing one bug leads to several new ones.
