- Stop Updating Windows 11 Right Away
So many people love to update windows as soon as they are released, but with Microsoft's track record, they always have bugs in these windows updates. Windows 11 KB5035853 March 2024 update issues cause BSODs, so Microsoft released Windows 11 version KB5036980 to fix a lot of windows problems.

#windows11 #windows10 #tech #techtips
Too big, too bloated, too much hardware to support. Even Windows 11 can't fix that problem ( having dumped support for "legacy" hardware ). Microsoft need to go back to making operating systems, not this shite.
I block ALL updates and only bother it with twice a year. We still have plenty of people using Windows 7 in the office happily. No updates, no reboots, no blue screens.
I still use Windows 11, however, I use VMWare to use Windows XP dedicated for making documents.
this is the way
Steam doesn't work on Windows 7 anymore.:(
Me too! Blocked updates, and I do it about twice a year. I use Windows Update Blocker to stop the updates.
And this is why upgrading to Windows 11 is actually a heckin' downgrade. They should really test these updates before releasing it to the public, because this is just infuriating.
Microsoft should stop relying on final users to test updates on the stable versions and go back to the older days when they could test and solve their problems firsthand before delivering to the final user.
for those that want linux subsystem or auto hdr or direct storage (not sure if it now is released in windows 10) you can see by doing windows+g then going settings then gaming features there should be a line "this version of windows supports the latest directstorage io optimizations" which requires a nvme
if all that don't mather to you stick with windows 10 a lot of people still forget that windows 11 was supposed to be a windows 10 update and became its own thing due to tpm and secure boot requirements
also windows 10 is not innocent here either maybe now you can be safe from bullshit but when windows 10 launched literally day 1 there was a bug in windows explorer were if it crashes it causes the processes connected to it to go corrupt which means windows explorer does not start anymore which is responsible for most of your interface in windows
then we had a update that bricks audio drivers then we had a update that causes files to be taken over by trustedinstaller fk that was anoying then we had one that loves to bsod pc's similar to this windows 8 to 11 is a downgrade in general but ironically that might also seem to be the case because many of windows 7 users had bricked windows update so they never received updates who would have known windows 7 would then just work XD to those that had working windows update your more of a rare pokemon then you might think if it bricked either trustedinstaller.exe or svchost.exe it depends were it gets stuck it would use all of your cpu (due to weaker pc's that means 100% all the time) and basically bash its head constantly into a wall thinking maybe someday it will move out of the way
the last windows 11 bug i experienced which was a new one was were the downloads folder extension no longer worked fixed it with regedit but the stupid thing had difficulty putting it back in quick access even after explorer restart thing is it isn't 100% fixed till windows reinstall yeah i ain't doing that for a stupid folder if i change its folder location it disappears again
both 10 and 11 are trash we are forced in to use waiting for linux to break the last barriers of why i need windows and then it is adios to windows
Will stay on w10 for good.
@@Dode2622 They are stopping updates for Win 10. Staying with it after that is a bad idea.
There are plenty of reason to not go to Windows 11, but this isn't one of them. It's been a while, but Windows 10 has had similar problems with monthly updates in the past. This type of problem with monthly updates isn't unique to Windows 11. It's why even with Windows 10, I never install monthly updates right away and do searches for any serious issues, before installing updates.
older versions of autocad no longer work on windows 11 so you can no longer use your perpetual licences but have to buy(rent) the new ones. It is worse than mafia.
Use VM for your older applications
@@mredizon00 not practical
Well your options are. Use a older windows, buy a new licence of cad, use VM (windows pro has HyperV), test linux with wine or pirate.
@@Golecom2 I'll have to stay with windows 10 beyond October 2025. A new Autocad lt license is some 400$ per PC per year while the extended update price is 61$ per pc for the 1st year. The problem is, I wanted to update my gen 7 Intel PCs for free before Microsoft makes it impossible and no longer free.
Rocco has AutoCAD r14 running like a top on Windows 11. You just need to do the old "transplant install" trick from a previous installation plus some dlls. There is documentation on the web. The license gets pulled along with it, and hey, watch them Mafia comments. Rocco is, you know, sensitive.
For a company that has made a career out of perpetually reinventing the wheel, they still don't seem very good at it.
You seem to forgot to tell everybody,not everyone can access the group policy editor
That's correct. Group Policy is not found on Windows 11 Home. Windows 11 Pro has Group Policy.
I don't update windows until at least one week after the update unless it is a security update. Another fantastic video Britec. Windows seems not to be testing their updates but letting those who will update straight away be the ones who are testing them.
They really don't test those updates
They have us for that.
We are the guinea pigs
@@TheDa6781 which is why it's best to wait for issues to be discovered before updating
Yes.
We can also say that they intentionally introduce bugs, so we wait for another update which includes more crap including the current crap.
This is just one of many many many reasons to not use unsecure, blated garbage as windows in a company....
YES! Absolutely. Do not get the optional updates. They are more likely to be buggy.
Only security updates and that's it.
@@PenX79 Well, no. It is only the optional updates that you should stay away from. Those are the ones that tend to be buggier.
I turned off updates in the reg years ago on windows 10, had zero virus, trojans or software issues. Cant remember the last time I had to reinstall windows.
As always - Thanx for looking out for us mate! 👍👍👍
After installing Windows 11 I found that I did not like the changes. After six months of use I removed it. Currently trying distros of Linux to find out which one will work the best for my needs. It is a shame that Microsoft does not seem interested in customer feedback and they end up with type of operating system.
Well that is because customer base is stupid and fell for the crap microsoft is pushing. You are not just a data harvester for them and that is how they make money from a consumer perspective. They don't really care if you computer gets bricked, they just want your data one way or another.
Don't need to worry about that now. I'm using Linux mint it's not taking too much to get used to it.
It's nice when the updates are just security patches and bug fixes like they are supposed to be (Linux). It's sad when an operating system becomes the virus that breaks the computer (Windows 11).
Same, very easy switch
Local Group Policy Editor only available in Windows 11 Pro /Enterprise mostly
To defer or not to defer, that is the question that is hotly debated in many IT circles. If your system normally sits behind a good firewall, or even a residential home router that NATs everything and blocks all inbound connections, you can defer for a longer period of time. However, if your system is a server on the public Internet, now you really should be keeping up with updates much more frequently depending on your setup and the nature of the vulnerabilities getting fixed (ex: a patch for a zero day exploit on a server exposed to the internet should be patched sooner).
In the case of a desktop/laptop system, running the client version of Windows, you can usually defer for at least a week, but if it's a laptop that constantly goes into "hostile territory" you're probably going to want to look into the patches and known issues ASAP. By "hostile territory", that could mean things like public WiFi where anybody can be on the same network as you, a home network where devices constantly go into hostile territory and come back to it (meaning a possibility of them being compromised when they rejoin the home network), etc. Also, the defenses on the Windows system you have also play a significant role in how long you can get away with deferring updates with critical security fixes.
There's a lot of debate on how long one should wait before installing updates for these reasons. As commonplace as Windows is to be found on desktops and laptops, there's a lot of variables to consider for how long those systems should go before installing updates.
Unfortunately, Microsoft bundles security and non-security updates together in such a way that you often cannot install them separately. It may not be the critical security vulnerability getting fixed that causes the latest round of reports of blue screen errors, but a patch for a completely unrelated area of Windows. This too further complicates things greatly in deciding on when updates need to be installed. At work, you have your IT department doing what they can (within budget) to properly secure the network with firewalls, proxies, traffic inspection, etc. so the risk of that critical vulnerability may not be as high in that highly controlled environment. At home, you may or may not have the same ability to properly safe guard systems and segment them off to protect others as needed. Most people don't spend the time and money to really lock down and protect their home networks (even the tech savvy) so you still have to be very careful on how long you should be deferring updates.
You will almost always hear from "security experts" that security patches should always be installed ASAP when they are released. The huge increase of cyber attacks happening now with government funded cyber attacks increasing tends to make that advice of installing patches ASAP look like "common sense". However, every situation is different. At the end of the day, it's person who owns the computer that needs to make the decisions based on their needs and what they're experiencing.
Thanks Britec, legend as always dude
I have the exact opposite with my acquaintances: they never restart their laptops and just close the lid, so whenever I need to troubleshoot there are many months of updates waiting.
This is what motivates me to back up the whole system drive before applying updates...😐
Good idea regardless. If not the whole drive, at least a few directories that contain your most important files.
@@646464marioyou’d be left installing windows from scratch, entire image is best. Use REDO or clonezilla
Just a restore point innit?
@@LPgmxDan restore points won't work on modern apps, just the old stuff...and they make more harm than good on ssd's
@@jed9894 could you elaborate how they dmg ssd's and how you go about backups
Thanks for the heads up and have a nice safe day!!
I've never had u[dates enabled on ANY of the computers I've owned, and having the updates disabled never gave me any problems, everything just works. Like they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
You def should be installing the Security updates.
I guess I'm one of the lucky few. I've never had a problem with any Windows updates. Ever. Including the one mention in this video. And that's since Win'95, across many hardware upgrades and fresh PC builds. 🤷♂
Most people have no problems with Windows, neither do I. The ones complaining just want to look and sound smart and cool.
And that's why I disabled the 'Get updates as soon as they are available' setting
I want all my security updates but preview updates no thanks anymore!
Ever since I did this my computer has been a lot more stable!
I also don't allow Windows to automatically install drivers via Windows Update, as when I did that I was getting BSODs caused by conflicting drivers with Windows replacing the latest one I'd install from the AMD software with an outdated version
It's not that people arecafraid of not having their system up to date. It's that Windows comes with these settings out of the box and disabling auto updates has become a chore.
My previous computer got issues after an update. It was a ROG Asus and you have this special button on those game laptops where you can tweak and configure stuff. Well that button stopped working. So after I got my new computer I decided to install an app that prevents updates. I really love it and it keeps me from breaking the laptop with a hammer.
Hmm Brian well mate I get security updates when I check each day without fail and I should I see check the quality updates as you say but am not sure of some of the information about any of those quality updates they give out as I am not savvy enough to understand some of the more tachnical jargon they contain. So I shall have to pause for the maximum number of weeks but will always wonder at just what I might be missing, and as long as I do not miss the security updates.
i knew it Britec thats why i downgraded to Windows 10 early April due to major bugs that were appearing after installing windows 11 more than 5 times including downloads folder lagging for no reason too many ads.
That's great advice, I paused the updates for a week, the problem is they have a lot dumb people testing these updates on the Windows Insider program, I shouldn't say dumb people, but a lot of people who believe one size fits all, they send the updates out too early, and it might work on their system, but it's not always ( mostly ) a good stable update, great advice Brian.
Isnt LGP a Pro-only-option?
Plus, please tell me a source that tells us of new updates rather than enabling updates to get the KB number, noting that number, pausing updates then searching that KB to see if they're buggy.
I changed the group policy for automatic updating on my Windows10 pro PC while watching your video on my Linux PC. 🙂 I have no interest in installing Windows11 and have been migrating to Linux the last 6 months. My Linux PC is now my primary PC.. I use my more powerful windows PC now primarily to play a few games that I can't get to work on Linux but I will abandon them before I install Windows11. Thanks for the video!
Not always. I game on my PC and some of the games in order to continue to play them require I run the latest updates. What then when other software is also forcing you to update to continue using it?
I do mine through the policy editor, I don't want the bloat or broken drivers, I get mine via my hardware manufacturs.
All these updates not only cause problems with Windows, but also with other applications. There has been an ongoing battle with my display driver and application, windows, and the Dell display driver and application. I have to rollback some of the updates. I completely agree, all these meaningless Microsoft updates are horrible.
Well explained. I agree totally. Thanks for mentioning windows latest
You're welcome!
Hmm. I seem to be missing that option for managing windows updates. the only one I find is the one above that does not give you a window to set when to install updates.
The funny thing is as of watching this video just a couple of minutes before I had a notification about an update. Now, I have heard a lot of issues with the recent updates so I search the update code and did not find any codes related to the current update and eventually I updated my PC. Lucky for me, my PC did not break and I think that is because I am using W10 and got an update for W10 22H2. I will do this settings for my other PCs because I don't trust Microsoft and their over confidence about the updates regardless of how important they are.
All very good Brian, but I hope you would agree many computer users do not want to become system administrators; they just want to use (and trust) their computers. Sadly, windows updates are now so tarnished we need to try our best to educate people a little. Is it any wonder why people move to apple and android tablets and chromebooks?
A lot of people will jump to new OS when the end of windows 10 comes
@@Britec09 I know I won't. I can't go win11, linux is not compatible with the games I play, I don't own them via steam, so no proton. A bunch of specific applications aren't ported properly or tested on linux. Win 10 is for me.
@@TheGoodWillSpreader In linux you could setup a VM to play windows games not compatible with proton. Like some online games with special anticheat. You could also desguise VM to Baremetal, to avoid issues. Since some anticheats ban VMs.
@@Golecom2 problem is that my machine is 12 years old, capped at 4gb ddr3. I can't run linux and a VM
From the Beta testing days, when W11 was being made, there were issues, and now there's still issues.
Get a grip on the quality control Microsoft!!!
For those how have "Get the latest updates as soon as they are available" enabled, I highly suggest that you turn this off. Otherwise stop complaining about having issues with your device(s) when you've only got yourself to blame, when it comes to installing buggy updates. On a serious note, if those who want the absolute latest updates, I suggest that you put your device into the Windows Insider Program. Key Takeout from my statement, Never Ever use the stable release of Windows to install updates with option "Get the latest updates as soon as they are available" enabled.
I update windows when my PC starts acting like it's got a virus. Many times I thought I got a virus but I updated windows and it fixed the virus like issues. For example mouse cursor lagging, things slowly opening or sometimes not opening at all. And other things.
Here is the problem...drivers for NVIDIA and ADOBE end up causing huge issues when things aren't updated. I used to not upgrade until absolutely mandatory but over the last couple years it is almost impossible when using Adobe and NVIDIA cards for content creation.
Microsoft should make delay updates button instead of pause button, this way update will be delayed for a choosen amount of weeks selected by the user after they are being released. just to give some time to Microsoft to react on any issue that may occur.
Thanks for the video.
I recently updated and ever since that, when i fire up an internet browser my cpu starts to heat up, causing the fans to spin up, not to dangerously high temps, but it never used to do that.
When I'm in..... local group policy editor/windows updates/ manage updates offered from windows server... The only option I have in my win 11 is ....."Remove access to use all windows update features" and nothing else !?
I have an issue with Win 11. I have to restart my pc everyday after I have disable hyper v but after a restart, hyper v is enable again. How do I stop win 11 from enabling hyper v?
I have stopped updating the win 10 in 2020. It still gets some updates even after disabling it everywhere I could. That spying will never stop. BG even invested in the Raspberry PI. And tried to push some MS updates to Linux users. It’s disgusting.
Welp saw this update way too late. Thanks for sharing
any fix for intel i225-v (3) please i have issues with very high ping and my wifi network adapter working better than my ethernet onboard adapter I don't know why maybe i should give up and buy network adapter from any company except intel because they have trash support
😃👍👍Thnks!!!!
When insider releases are much stable then stable releases.
I've never enabled Get updates fast option. They cause more problems with incompatible GPU drivers and i usually stick with whql drivers
Yea, same with gpu drivers, i update only if i see many issues in games.
4:43 There are many policies controls in which if you are nkt a daily guy ..you maybe tend to forgotten which policy you set on..and may get mad
Isn't group policy only available on Windows 11 Pro?
Very good advice. Not a good "advert" for Windows !
Its the truth
How to distinguish security updates from all other updates in WU?
After encountering the same crash following the update, I had to reinstall Windows 11... Now, I am using a program named "Win Update Stop" to block new Windows 11 updates. I need to really have control of when these updates occur, I was in the midst of working on two important Excel documents, both of which were lost due to the BSOD.
Forced updates & invasion of privacy are the main reason why I switch over to Linux Mint. Never regretted that choice. If I really need a Microsoft application for some reason I either use bottle or KVM baked Linux.
Brian Sir do you prefer Windows 10 or Windows 11? Personally which one do you use? Were your PCs in your house outdated when Windows 11 was announced and Microsoft released new set of requirements to be fulfilled to use Windows 11?
What the best way to do without group editor only got Windows Home please help :(
@ 3:11 you search for group policy......... when I do that nothing comes up???????
At this point, I gotta ask. Do things break this bad even on the presumably costly Enterprise whatever editions of windows 11? Is any version of it chill for the casual basic user that just wants to use their machine? I will be needing some options for relatives, they both need windows and won't handle the update hell nonsense
I am currently using 2016 model i3 5th gen laptop with 8 gb ram. I was using windows 11 from last one month without any issues but suddenly from past 1 week I am getting this irritating bsod error and the main thing is every time the stop code is different of bsod. I tried everything to fix it. I even clean installed windows 10 too but I was still getting bsod.
Is it possible that installing windows 11 on unsupported hardware can damage the hardware like ram of my pc?
Update your graphics drivers
I am having issue with windows trying install and update for my Canon laser jet printer. I already have installed latest manufacturer driver ( Yet windows want install stupid old driver that no good and is stuck on stupid. Wont give me option to remove bad driver from updates.
I was doing this long before Windows 11. I knew back in the XP days to not be a Windows Update seeker, and that was back when Microsoft had a Q&A team.
And now they want to put more ads in the start menu which is being tested now in the insider builds.
What ppls should do is delay for a month and image the drive before the update. Then if it fails you’ll have a clean drive and then hide those updates.
Great video
What updates are safe?
How do you enable gpedit in Windows Home?
I dual boot windows and Linux. Almost always windows 11 has been defaulting to GMT. All my time and date values are correct and I even switched to a Australian time server but it still defaults to GMT
Windows bricked my old laptop when an update lost power during installation and then started asking for a password that had never been used on that system.
I just un-bricked it with Linux mint and it's so much better, far fewer issues than windows, faster and free. Plus my bluetooth works again something that windows 10 always had issues with.
Support is better too, the suggested solutions from microsoft never worked, not once in memory, always a third party website/video to fix.
I still have the main machine on windows 11 but as I don't use adobe or office, I'll be switching completely soon. I got tired of having to learn a new interface everytime their shareholders decide to shake me down. Maybe my usb ports will start working properly again after, probably.
It's mad how I can genuinely say now, and I am just a novice, that I use linux because it just works
New interface? Hit Windows key and type in search... Power and logoff have been the same for like 10 years? You can even move the Start Menu...
@@farmeunit I was referring to office and photoshop, I use open source alternatives already
How doe you do this in Windows 11 Home?
The "pause updates" is grayed out for me. I have never been able to use it. Only option there I can use is turning off the "get the latest updates as soon as there're available" which disabling that does nothing since it still updates the PC if it restarts and so on. Editing the policies was my only choice. However, it seems even that gets reverted or ignored by windows updates at times. Windows 11 is the first version other than vista to make me truly consider using Linux instead.
Should not be greyed out
I had to reset my PC after the latest update. My start menu stopped working.
Except you need a Pro license to have the group policy editor and installing that separately is violation to terms of service they say
I never let Windows update drivers. I don't fix what ain't broke. They have been showing Nvidia & other drivers for hardware that's working fine with some pretty old drivers I got from the manufacturer's site. Seem to remember selecting some option to never let Windows automatically update any drivers on any of the versions. I still have 7 & 8.1 machines for software that either won't work on later versions or I lost the keys. I do most my online with Linux.
I use Sordum Windows Update Blocker and Macrium Reflect to create System drive image.
Somebody... anybody....help. how do i stop my windows 10 updating itself permanently?..it keeps updating no matter what settins i apply to it.....any help?....
Good video.
Why not just disable the checkbox "Install new updates as soon as they are available"? This prevents WU to download and install preview (untested) versions of Windows updates. By doing so, you automatically significantly reduce the update frequency, and the probability of issues.
Anything that said preview update do not update at all
It is always a good idea to wait a while when an update comes around, just to see if there are any major issues that arise.
I agree, I set mine to manual
I have updates delayed until June.
That's why everyone needs the Pro version of Windows, not the Home version. No Group Policy is found in Windows 11 Home.
Ok, as instructed. Apply all Microsoft Windows updates as soon as they're published.
I was told years ago if u have a good security system such as Bitdefender etc. You really don't need Windows updates?
A good security system such as Bitdefender 😂🤣🤣...sure..keep thinking that
now i cant update to the 2023-12 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based Systems.totally corrupted
I live on the edge with my 12 year old desktop running Win 11. I do updates as soon as I see them. Never had one go bad yet.
That is because your hardware is old and wont get driver updates. Most of the bad updates area drivers on new hardware.
I want back win 10. but i bought win 11. how to turn back!
Thankfully I use Ghost Spectre's ISO that has pause until 1/1/2077 lol meaning forever until I update but I do this after late of the month.
the fact that a video like this has to be made is why I've already decided Win10 will be my last. I swear the last time I didn't have to worry about Windows being a problem, I was running WfW 3.11...
still running win 10 pro on my two systems and laptop. no worries
install 10 and use 11 key. you get rid off ads. remind 11 is same as 10 but ugly ui+ADS(will it make pc faster amd better)
I try to turn off windows 10 updates completely but it never works tbh this was the only reason I upgraded to windows 11,
I have my updates locked to 22H2 only via Group Policy. It won't update beyond that, but I still get security updates. Anything beyond that is rubbish to me.
Yes you are correct for a limited time. Until Microsoft's Telemetry data detects that you have such a setting set or such a file created or enabled then and eventual update that gets forced through will undo that. I got news for you until you have editing access to the windows kernel you're not changing a damn thing for the long haul. The updates engine is built into the kernel the end user does not have any control over the updates engine
@motoryzen probably not, but I only use Windows to occasionally play games. I don't browse to web or do anything other than log into Steam and spend a few hours playing a game. The majority of what I do is via Linux and MacOS.
This is what happens when you get rid of your QC department and let the user catch it. Sounds very much like the US’s banking system.
I'm not updating windows since 2006..and i'm fine with that...my computer works great...whitout problems....same thing on my phones...stop updating right away....aand works fine..updating have a single job to do....to destroy slowly aand for shure your devices...to buy another device...with moore money aand the same devices...with the same power ,or the same job for your need..for what buyng another device?
I am surprised while Windows 11 has annoyances and recommendations for saving minuscule amounts of energy on PCs and Laptops, even recommending to reduce display refresh rate from 144Hz to 60Hz although my display hardware supports high refresh rate and brightness, and using Laptop in power saving mode at low performance, but they themselves have artificially made outdated tens of millions of PCs by not supporting them with Windows 11 and Ending (later this year) support for Windows 10 which will result in generation of collosal amounts of electronic waste and will cause great harm to the Environment and Earth, and all this just to increase profits of share holders and make billionaires more rich? This is not good.
Yes, gaslighting us for the climate agenda while they cause all of the problems on purpose.
I had ZERO problems running WIN7 till last year. LOCKED for 10 years against updates.
Absolutely agree. 100%. This goes for most software. Especially looking at you Elgato. (Eww).
