Windows 11 Finally Fixes "Update and Shut Down" Functionality After a Decade (www.techpowerup.com)

If you ever tried the infamous "Update and shut down" option in any Windows build, it often leads to a reboot instead to an actual shutdown. Now, Microsoft has finally fixed this issue starting with Windows 11 25H2 Build 26200.7019 (or 26100.7019 on 24H2). According to the Windows Latest, Microsoft has shipped this broken functionality way back with Windows 10, and has never fixed it since. However, the Windows teams working behind the update have finally managed to ship a working solution with a note stating in Windows 11 experiences that the new build: "Addressed underlying issue which can cause "Update and shutdown" to not actually shut down your PC after updating."

Maybe one day they’ll fix applications on the task bar not focusing when you click on them, don’t get confused here, these are applications already open and in the background but clicking the icon on the taskbar occasionally does nothing until you manually bring it to the foreground.

Wild this is a billion dollar company.

Also the fact CTRL-C randomly doesn't copy.

Also, only the main screen time and date button actually pulls the calendar up. That works on all screens in Win 10. It's incredibly annoying

So that’s not just me! I’ve also had Alt+Tab get stuck showing all windows and not move to the selected one lately. Gahhh.

I think you missing just a few zeroes there.

I mean technically I am right, they are worth at least 1 billion dollars, didn’t feel like looking up their gross/net earnings.

It was meant as a tongue in cheek, not a dig at you :)

I don't think windows is how they make most of their money
