Windows 11 KB5094126 crashes some PCs (HP?) with BSODs, breaks OneDrive in File Explorer, enterprise apps

Windows 11 KB5094126, released on June 9, 2026, is a significant update that introduces new features, including the Low Latency Profile, and addresses up to 200 security vulnerabilities. However, it has caused boot failures for some HP devices, particularly the HP EliteBook 840 G10, leading to BSODs or BitLocker Recovery prompts. The update may conflict with specific BIOS configurations or EFI/System partition settings, especially on devices with older EFI partitions. Users experiencing boot failures may need to disable Secure Boot as a temporary workaround. Additionally, the update has disrupted OneDrive integration in File Explorer, preventing access from the left pane and tray icon, although users can still access cloud folders directly. Similar issues have been reported with Dropbox and iCloud Drive. The update has also affected Microsoft Word integration in various business applications, leading to failures in document handling. Furthermore, changes to desktop.ini files have impacted custom folder icons, requiring users to unblock these files to restore functionality.

Can you stow your torch in Gothic Remake?

In Gothic Remake, players activate torches from the hotbar to illuminate dark environments, but cannot stow them back in inventory. Instead, selecting a weapon causes the torch to be stabbed into the ground, where it remains lit for a time. If the player rests in a bed, the torch will extinguish by the time they awaken. The torch also goes out if it comes into contact with water. Torches are plentiful in necessary areas, allowing players to place them along paths for easy retrieval later. To avoid accidental deployment, players are advised to assign the torch to slot 0 in the hotbar. There is a suggestion for future updates to allow players to extinguish torches on the ground to reclaim them more easily.
