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.”

    So it actually was a bug. All these years I gaslit myself I was too tired, too high or maybe just missclicked this time. That’s actually funny. How fucking incapable is Microsoft xd?

    So, I settled on Nobara (Plasma desktop) almost week ago now. Besides my troubles with Wacom tablet (it happens with all distros I tried, no solution so far), it’s all good. The OS isn’t constantly nagging me about something. It doesn’t lie about not restarting when I ask it to hold off -and consequently lose no work because of it. There is no random ad on the login screen. No web results sorted to appear first when I type to search for a local file or command. I can disable stuff I don’t use, such as window animations, etc. No shovelware like one-fucking-drive or some LLM butler taking up room, ram, and mental health.

    All in all, I feel weirdly at peace when using this machine. It’s just a tool that’s succeeding in getting out of the way.

    The only downside is I can’t use the Affinity suite, but besides that… perfect

      Just for the sake of the anecdote, I just discovered that in KDE Plasma, you can put a taskbar anywhere you like, including vertically, resize it, and even rotate it at an arbitrary angle! it’s pretty much useless… but you can

    Too little too late. Shit like this would not fly in an open OS and is they were only able to do it that long, as they give a shot about customer demands. Fuck these proprietary software! Never again will i be held back by corpo software!

        Furthermore, what do two different mobile OS have to do with a desktop one?

          No one is making a distinction between mobile and desktop here but you…

          As fas as I can remember, Android and iPhone are proprietary corpo software.

          I hope that helped clearing your confusion, my little bright light.
