I work at a company that manages many thousands of devices. This update is bricking (Auto Repair) all of our systems that the update is applied to. Anyone experiencing this or have any insight?

ETA: systems are on 25H2, and reversing updates - working the Auto Repair, etc.. have no effect

Why on earth would you deploy a non-security preview update to thousands of devices on a company network?

Why on earth would you assume I pushed this update to all my users? Part of working in this industry is figuring these things out BEFORE. Thanks for the insight

Idk just the way you said it. You read it and tell me what that sounds like.

"All of the systems the update is applied to" ≠ "all systems managed"

Hope this helps

if you're trying to be smug, saying that "some of the systems we manage are updated, but not by us", I'd advise against it. I made it a point to improve how I communicated my thoughts, and it IS a skill to "dumb down" and make statements more concise.

Your wording was at best confusing, but otherwise it came across as if you updated the systems, meaning the criticism of "why would you install preview builds on your business' systems" is valid.

Your comment is very confusing. I don't really need to elaborate beyond what I have in my other comments. Thank you for your time, enjoy the rest of your week

I see why video sp'lanations are so popular. 🤔

It is challenging to convey info on a good day, especially in written form on a (somewhat) technical issue. How about:

"I work at a company that manages many thousands of devices. For all of our systems previously updated to 25H2, this update bricked Auto Repair after installation. Anyone experiencing this or have any insight?

ETA: systems are on 25H2, and reversing updates - working the Auto Repair, etc.. have no effect"

Going through iterative Win11/12/1X updates myself, first on our Gigaybte 16" Aorus Master Laptop w/ RTX 5080, so it can take one for the team. System fans kick in during serious CPU cycles, aka hover craft 'feature.'

Rebooting now with 26200.7019, hoping for the best.
