In Windows 11, Microsoft has removed the option to make the taskbar smaller—and with the 24H2 build, even the old registry hack (TaskbarSi) no longer works.
Fuck Microsoft.18 -
So for a few months now, I've been battling w/ failed updates of Windows 11 from version 23H2 to 24H2.
Initially, the update became available around Christmas.
During the update process, the PC BSOD'ed, then failed, && ultimately reverted to its original 23H2.
Couple of months later - same thing.
A few weeks ago, the update was once again offered to me...
...same _fucking_ thing.
...OK. This time around I actually saw something that resembled a meaningful error code.
...googled it.
...stumbled upon this post:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/... .
Well, I wasn't thrilled about it, but decided to try the solution, as that environment mentioned actually mirrored my own.
Yup. That was it.
It's fucking retarded how an OS can't even successfully undergo an update because of a security solution.
I'd say they should work together to solve that idiotic inconvenience.
Oh, yeah - once fully updated I have reinstalled the security solution. It's good, so apart from the OS's update failure thingy, can't really complain.
Thanks for reading.3
