Microsoft has fixed the nasty update bug causing Windows 11 boot loops

Windows 11.

Microsoft says a known issue causing reboot loops and problems with the taskbar after a Windows 11 update has been resolved. The situation forced Microsoft to halt the Windows 11 23H2 update rollout on June 27 and affected Windows 11 22H2. Microsoft issued an update squishing the bug on July 9.

The reboot loop problem only affected those using virtual machine tools and virtualization features, such as CloudPC, DevBox, and Azure Virtual Desktop. Some users also reported seeing problems with VMware virtual machines. Those running Windows Home edition were much less likely to experience the bug since virtualization is less common in those environments.
