For months, users around the world have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the big Windows 11 24H2 update. But as has happened on so many occasions in the past, many have ended up disappointed by the errors that have appeared after installation.
Here we are referring to the big update of the year for the most recent version of Microsoft’s operating system, hence its enormous importance. But some have encountered serious operating problems once they have updated their equipment. So much so that at this moment Microsoft has been forced to stop sending said update to a good number of compatible computers.
The main reason for all this is that Windows 11 24H2 is causing unexpected and annoying blue screens that appear suddenly. Without a doubt this is a serious problem for all those affected. In the event that you have encountered this serious problem, to begin with you should know that you are not the only one.
And at the moment Windows 11 24H2 is causing some PCs to encounter a BSOD that completely blocks the computer. Perhaps the most positive thing about this unpleasant fact is that Microsoft is already fully aware of all this. Hence, he had already gotten to work and is planning to pause this year’s biggest update for certain configurations. This is a way to paralyze this serious bug in Windows 11.
Specifically, Microsoft already knows that this is a bug that affects certain hardware configurations with computers that have this SSD disk. All computers that have SSD drives from the well-known manufacturer Western Digital could suffer from these blue screen of death errors.
Why Windows 1124H2 PC crashes
Although Microsoft has not yet officially acknowledged the reports, it is aware of the issue. It occurs when you update the device to Windows 11 24H2 through Windows Update. Thus, many people have reported over the last few days that they have encountered Blue Screenshots of Death or BSOD after installing the update.
Well, this important error that blocks the PC completely is related to the storage controllers and the RAID controller of certain SSD drives. This element is responsible for managing multiple hard drives or SSDs as a single storage unit.
In fact, it seems that it regularly affects all those who have SSD units from the aforementioned Western Digital firm. What’s more, after a good number of reports received, we can confirm that the failure affects several models of solid drives from this same manufacturer.
Now, Microsoft is aware of the reports and is working with WD to block the affected hardware from receiving the Windows 11 24H2 update. Obviously, this is a temporary solution until the bug is permanently fixed. Therefore, the solution now is not to install this update if we have a disk from this company, and wait for Microsoft to patch the aforementioned bug.
