    WTF is up with this 24H2 update I keep hearing about?

    It appears to have a ton of issues, from this to permanently BSOD’s people’s computers?

      WTF is up with this 24H2 update I keep hearing about?

      The first thing you have to know is that it hasn’t been released yet! That’s right, every one of these articles screaming about 24H2 bugs is based on Preview, commonly called Beta, software.

      This particular issue being caused because Microsoft is moving to “Checkpoint Updates” so that updates will install faster and be smaller in size.

      Right now 24H2 is marking parts of 23H3 as necessary for future updates so they can’t be deleted. This will 100% be fixed before 24H4 goes RTM.

      Basically this one is a non-issue. It’s being used as an outrage generator.
