A five-month-old Windows bug finally has a workaround from Microsoft, but it may not be the outcome customers wanted.
Microsoft regularly releases Windows builds catering to Insiders as well as customers on the stable release channels. Naturally, the relatively fast-paced frequency of release also means that bugs sometimes slip through the cracks and are later discovered and reported by end users. Back in January, Microsoft had updated its release health dashboard with an issue related to several components of Windows 10 and 11, such as Windows Search and Start menu becoming unresponsive. Fast-forward five months and the company has now updated the bug report to offer a mitigation.
This bug was reported by a significant number of Windows users recently, across both Windows 10 and Windows 11.
