Windows 11 update causes PC slowdowns, connection errors, and sign-in problems
Microsoft just released a cumulative update as part of its monthly Patch Tuesday for Windows, including Windows 11. However, this update is said to have errors.
According to the latest report, the Patch Tuesday update not only brings fixes for over 100 vulnerabilities and new features for Windows 11 Moment 3 but also causes many problems. The main complaints coming from Windows 11 22H2 users who have installed the KB5028185 update are slow performance, internet connection errors, and login issues. Additionally, the update did not resolve the issue that caused SSDs to slow down and continued to bother users.
One of the complaints on Reddit said: 'KB5028185 is garbage. Thanks to this update, my reboot and boot times have increased significantly, the welcome screen hangs for 17 seconds, whereas before it lasted about 4.5 seconds. Shutdown time is also longer.
Another user commented: 'Why after the update did all my games and apps start to slow down so much?', and another said: 'Me too. Can't believe how terrible the performance is. I uninstalled the update and everything is fine. I hate how Microsoft keeps forcing you to install such broken updates on Windows 10/11. I never had this problem with Windows 7/8.'
According to another complaint posted 'Is anyone else experiencing the fact that their computer 'bulges' a lot after an update? Everything was working fine last night, received the updates this morning, took 4 hours to download/install the updates, another 45 minutes to install properly after 2 reboots, and now it's 4 hours after the reboot is complete, everything is still very slow'.
In addition to reduced performance, users have complained of interruptions in both Wi-Fi (wireless) and Ethernet (wired) connections. An example of such a complaint says: 'My computer is no longer connected to the internet. No wifi or ethernet. And my firewall can't start. Before doing this update, everything was fine'.
Another major glitch involves login issues. Simply put, the user cannot log in, the operating system does not display the login panel, and the user cannot enter the password. As a temporary measure, users can completely uninstall KB5028185. However, they would then be left with all the vulnerabilities that Microsoft fixed upon release.
