Microsoft has updated its guidance for over 500 million Windows 11 users, encouraging them to evaluate their security measures. The company asserts that Microsoft Defender, its built-in antivirus software, is adequate for most users, providing protection against potential risks from the moment the PC is powered on. While Microsoft acknowledges that its default protections are usually sufficient, it also notes that the decision to use third-party antivirus solutions depends on individual usage patterns and desired features. Users managing multiple devices, sharing devices with family, or seeking additional services like identity monitoring may consider third-party options. However, Microsoft warns that adding extra security tools can complicate system performance and incur unnecessary costs. The perception of built-in protection has evolved since the Windows XP and Windows 7 eras, with Windows 10 and 11 reinforcing the reliability of Microsoft Defender. Despite this, the guidance is not expected to significantly impact the third-party antivirus market, as testing has shown a variety of excellent options available for users looking to enhance their security.

PCG has rediscovered a hands-on preview of Dragon Age: Origins by Evan Lahti, along with an interview from 2009 with BioWare co-founders Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk. At that time, the studio was thriving, with both founders expressing optimism about the franchise's future and hinting at sequels. Muzyka noted that Dragon Age would be a franchise with a continuum of experiences, referencing a save transfer feature inspired by Mass Effect. Lahti recalls the excitement of covering the studio shortly after its acquisition by EA. Muzyka defended the artistic integrity of their games against media scrutiny, while Zeschuk commented on controversies surrounding early Mass Effect titles. The interview originally appeared in PC Gamer #198 (UK, March 2009).

France is transitioning from Windows to Linux for its government computers, announced on April 8 by the Interministerial Directorate for Digital Affairs, to reduce reliance on American technology firms. This change involves modifying the software on thousands of state computers, which is a significant task given that Windows is the most widely used operating system globally. Linux, an open-source system, allows for code modification and sharing. Experts highlight the benefits of open-source software, including transparency and collective ownership, which enhance data security and management. Other European countries, like Spain and Germany, have also adopted similar systems. The transition is expected to create jobs in the local economy as France will invest in hiring engineers instead of paying Microsoft licensing fees. However, the timeline for the rollout is uncertain, with no specifics on the number of computers involved or the duration of the project. Additionally, Microsoft has reportedly spent €7 million in 2025 on lobbying efforts related to digital regulations in the EU, which may complicate the transition.

Users have reported issues with Windows 11 update KB5083769, which has triggered BitLocker recovery key prompts, locking some users out of their PCs. Microsoft acknowledged that the problem mainly affects corporate devices with specific BitLocker Group Policy settings. The issue is limited to systems where BitLocker is enabled, certain Group Policy configurations are set, and the Secure Boot State PCR7 Binding is “Not Possible.” Affected users need to enter their BitLocker recovery key or contact IT support for assistance. Microsoft has also provided guidance for IT departments to perform a Known Issue Rollback to remove the problematic updates, though this may expose systems to vulnerabilities.

A shooting incident at a school in Zakarpattia has been classified as a terrorist act by authorities. A 15-year-old student discharged several rounds from a modified blank gun, injuring a classmate, who received prompt medical attention and is not in critical condition. Preliminary investigations indicate that the teenager acted under duress from unidentified individuals who threatened harm to his relatives if he did not comply with their demands. The shooter fled but was apprehended by patrol police shortly after. The Uzhhorod District Prosecutor's Office is overseeing the pre-trial investigation, which falls under Part 1 of Article 258 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.

A security researcher named Chaotic Eclipse has discovered a significant vulnerability in Microsoft Defender that could allow hackers to gain administrative access to systems running Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server. The vulnerability arises from Windows Defender's behavior of rewriting detected malicious files back to their original location instead of removing them, which can be exploited to overwrite system files and grant unauthorized users elevated privileges. This issue remains unaddressed by Microsoft, leaving millions of users vulnerable. Although there is no current evidence of active exploitation, the situation could change. Users are advised to consider additional antivirus solutions for enhanced security.
