Preparing for 24H2

Don’t roll out Windows 11 24H2 yet. Defer. Delay. Wait.

Most importantly, I always say wait, even if it’s just about monthly patches. But this is about what even Microsoft says is a major release, a complete OS overwrite. That makes 24H2 even more dangerous. Let other, more venturesome, souls take the slings and arrows, and use the lessons learned.

Those lessons may be coming fast. Within the AskWoody community, forum posts associated with last week’s MS-DEFCON 2 Alert demonstrated that some brave testers ran into problems. Other sources have reported glitches, including BSODs. I’m still collecting data and beginning my own testing.

I run what they tell me to run.

I’m posting this from my phone. I just had an update there too, to iOS 18.0.1.
