Fix bugs and create bugs! Win11 July cumulative update storage slows down performance, etc
With the release of Windows 11 22H2 and 23H2 versions, Microsoft released the KB5040442 cumulative update, which was designed to solve the problems in the previous update. However, the update has caused a series of new troubles and caused headaches for users.
Not only that, but users also encountered different BigInts when installing the KB5040442 update, including 0x80d02002, 0x800f081f, and 0x80073cf3. What's more frustrating is that even if the update is downloaded and installed manually, the installation process can be unusually slow or even stop responding.
In addition, the update also brought a headache of performance degradation, which affected the user's operating experience. Some users even encountered the dilemma of "bricking" the system. Although this seems to be an occasional phenomenon, it has also attracted considerable attention.
When using the file manager in light color mode, there is also a strange problem that the selected file or folder has a black border. Other errors include: the Windows Spotlight wallpaper is changed to pure black, and the prompt "Task host window is stopping background tasks" appears during the restart process. Although these problems can be solved manually, it will undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble for users.
To avoid installing potentially problematic updates, it is recommended that users temporarily pause updates for 7 days by going to "Settings" > "Windows Update" > "Pause Updates".
