Windows 11 Task Manager bug shows wrong number of running processes

Microsoft has acknowledged a reporting anomaly in the Task Manager of Windows 11, where it shows zero running applications and background processes after installing the October 2024 non-security preview update (KB5044384) for Windows 11 24H2 systems. This issue primarily affects devices with the "Group by Type" view enabled, although the Task Manager remains functional and users can still access the list of active applications and processes. Microsoft is investigating the matter and plans to include a fix in an upcoming Windows update. Additionally, a separate bug in Windows 10 was preventing certain applications from launching from non-admin accounts, which has been addressed using the Known Issue Rollback feature.
