Microsoft ships emergency Windows 11 update to fix its record patch
September’s patch release, the largest Microsoft has ever shipped, brought bugs that hit businesses, developers and gamers.
Microsoft has begun rolling out an emergency out-of-band update for Windows 11 to fix problems created by its September Patch Tuesday release. According to the reports, that September release addressed close to 1,000 flaws, making it the biggest update the company has ever shipped.
The same release also introduced new bugs. Those problems affected businesses, developers and gamers, the reports say, and pushed Microsoft to issue the unscheduled fix instead of waiting for the next monthly cycle.
The emergency update is now being distributed. The reports do not say which devices or configurations are affected, how many users ran into the issues, or which fixes the new update contains in full.
It is not yet clear whether further corrections will follow.
