Cameyo by Google is here to solve the “app gap” problem in ChromeOS

Discussions about ChromeOS in the enterprise have highlighted a persistent challenge known as the "app gap," which hinders widespread adoption due to reliance on critical legacy Windows applications.

Cameyo delivers only the necessary applications securely to any device, either streamed in the browser or as Progressive Web Apps (PWAs), allowing users to run legacy applications alongside modern web apps. This development enables IT departments to transition their fleets to ChromeOS while maintaining access to essential Windows applications. Additionally, Cameyo integrates with Chrome Enterprise Premium, enhancing security and control over client-based applications. This solution also allows organizations to incorporate AI capabilities into legacy applications, providing a flexible path to modernization without losing past investments.

Microsoft Warns October 2025 Updates May Trigger BitLocker Recovery on Some Windows Systems

Microsoft has acknowledged an issue affecting Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2, as well as Windows 10 version 22H2, where users of specific Intel-based devices encounter unexpected BitLocker recovery screens after installing updates released on or after October 14, 2025. This problem is linked to devices with Connected Standby technology, which affects the startup process but does not indicate a continuous encryption issue. Entering the recovery key resolves the prompt, and subsequent boots do not trigger additional prompts. Microsoft has activated a Known Issue Rollback (KIR) to address the issue without requiring users to uninstall previous patches. Server editions of Windows are unaffected, and users are advised to monitor the Windows Release Health dashboard for updates.
