What does NG Lv 1 mean?

I am using three drives on that list. Uninstalled KB5063878 and blocked updates for over a month.

I've read in another article that NG Lv 1 means that the drive is recoverable and NG Lv 2 that the drive is unrecoverable.

All of my computers are working just fine.

I'm using several of them too, but the update refuses to uninstall. Oh well, fingers crossed eh? Thanks Microsoft.

Same, thankfully 🫣

Hmm, mine uninstalled without issue but I haven't yet fully rebooted. Might still get an error at that point. Fingers crossed.

EDIT: reboot completed without issue. Guess I've been lucky. My main drive is not one of the affected ones and I didn't write anything noteworthy to the affected ones when the update was installed, so should be all good from here out.

Sounds like shit drives are half of the problem?

And the worst part is even if it succeeds you're still running Windows.

Yep this is what the early adopters are for. Send those grunts in to get torched and maimed.

I was able to roll-back this update. But my computer is still running Windows. Help!

Just vibecoding a kernel module, nothing out of the ordinary at Microsoft.

Even though switching my laptop to Linux was a bit of a pain, especially for other family members, i didn’t regret it at all before. This just makes it even more reassuring as the right move.

Even the programs I had that rely on windoze I just run in wine or in a small vm.

If you can switch, do it!

In the article from yesterday, this was reported by one guy in Japan

God damn, after ~20 years of being off Windows reading about problem after problem on each and every update is exhausting.

How do you all (Windows users) deal with this shit?

You guys still run Windows?!

Start looking into desktop environments, everyones quick to suggest distros, but de imo is more what matters day to day, most distros just work and will help you grab the same stuff in different background ways and/or with different terminal commands.

They should all have de options or have community alternatives of them that come with a certain de like kde or gnome.

Close to windows, minimal customization (still more than default windows

Cinnamon

Iphone + cydia, opinionated base experience with extensions that can completely change the look and add stuff like panels/dock

gnome + extension store

Windows but ultra customizable, tons of settings and directly customizable from the ui itself by right clicking

kde plasma

Keyboard user, hand always on it, like shortcuts and code editor based customization with documentation

Crying, sniffling, more crying, over eating, crying some more, and existential dread. Then I go to work and pretend it will just magical go away, become delusional, go home, and start the process all over again.

I might need therapy.
