Windows 11 version 24H2 has introduced significant issues, including blue screens of death (BSOD) and device bricking associated with update KB5043145. Users have reported problems such as black screens, corrupted boot sectors, and non-functional system restore points. Businesses are facing complications like failed domain join operations, group policy errors, and stalled WSUS updates. Specific issues include Remote Desktop disconnections after update KB5050094, the removal of the Windows Copilot app in March 2025, blocked BIOS updates for Lenovo ThinkPad users, and gaming performance problems for titles like Star Wars Outlaws and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Microsoft is aware of these issues but is slow to provide solutions. Users are advised to use built-in troubleshooters, roll back problematic updates, pause updates, manually update drivers, and back up their systems before major updates.

Microsoft has addressed an issue affecting Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) and Remote Desktop Services (RDS) connections for users connecting from Windows 11 24H2 to RDS hosts on earlier versions of Windows Server 2016, which arose after installing Windows updates since January 2025. Users reported disconnections after 65 seconds when establishing UDP connections. Affected users were advised to install the KB5053656 preview update to resolve the issue, which will be generally available with next month's cumulative updates. Additionally, Microsoft is working on fixing another issue causing Remote Desktop freezes on Windows Server 2025 and is investigating connection errors related to data restoration on Windows 11 24H2 systems. A bug causing USB printers to print random text has also been resolved.

Microsoft is using its Known Issue Rollback (KIR) strategy to address unexpected disconnections in Remote Desktop sessions linked to the January 2025 Windows preview update and exacerbated by the March 2025 Windows security update. Users may experience RDP sessions disconnecting after 65 seconds when establishing UDP-based connections from Windows 11, version 24H2 devices to RDS deployments on Windows Server 2016 or earlier. While KIR will assist Home and Pro users, system administrators may need to adjust Group Policy to effectively mitigate the issue.
