Microsoft is working hard to improve Windows 11. For example, the latest update for Windows 11 should fix a number of display and audio problems. In addition, the blue screen (BSOD) returns with an error message.

Microsoft has been rolling out Windows 11 since October 5, with the expectation that everyone will not be offered the update until the summer of 2022. As usual with many new software versions, there are always a number of teething problems that need to be solved. HCC therefore advises not to install Windows 11 right away, but to wait a little longer. We also advise this with the Windows livestream that HCC organizes next Wednesday, November 24 at 20.30. You can also read more information about Windows 11 in one of the many articles that we have already published on this site, such as this article about Windows 11 about everything you need to know about this latest operating system.
Update Windows 11
As of early October, Microsoft has already released several updates for its latest Windows version since the release of Windows 11. That wasn’t always an improvement, given the performance issues of AMD’s Ryzen processors.
A new patch (kind of patch) is now being released that should solve problems in the field of audio and playback, such as interface display errors and problems with printers, 32-bit apps and with Bluetooth audio. In addition, an issue has also been fixed where devices with certain processors would stop responding when waking from sleep. Microsoft has posted a laundry list of improvements that you can read on this Windows blog. The official name of this patch is Build 22000.346 (KB5007262).
Participants in the beta and insider programs have already received the patch, it is expected that it will be available for ‘regular’ users of Windows 11 in the near future. That can take a few days to weeks, by the way.
Blue screen (BSOD) returns
What also becomes available but what you would rather not have is the blue color in a Windows crash. Unfortunately, many Windows users are familiar with the infamous blue screen that displays an error message when your Windows system crashes. Microsoft changed that color from blue on Windows 10 to black on Windows 11, but is returning from that. In other words, the so-called Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) is back.
