Microsoft partially lifts the Windows 11 update block after that weird Ubisoft game bug

Ubisoft has addressed compatibility issues with some of its games on Windows 11 following the 24H2 update. Star Wars Outlaws and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora have received hotfixes that resolve previous Windows-related issues, although some performance hiccups may still occur. However, titles from the Assassin's Creed series, including Valhalla, Origins, and Odyssey, remain problematic, blocking the installation of the 24H2 update if detected on a user's system. Players must wait 48 hours after uninstalling these titles for the update to become available.
