Microsoft Issues New Emergency Update For Windows Users

 



New Out-of-Band Update From Microsoft Resolves Windows 11 ACPI.sys Driver Issue

Following reports of its May 13, 2025 security update (KB5058405) failing on some Windows 11 (versions 22H2 and 23H2) devices, Microsoft has released an out-of-band (OOB) update, KB5062170. This patch specifically addresses problems with the ACPI.sys driver, which was causing "your PC/Device needs to be repaired" messages and error code 0xc0000098, predominantly in virtualized enterprise setups.

Common elements maintained across all options for clarity:

  • Mention of the original problematic update (KB5058405) and its date.
  • Mention of the new fix (KB5062170).
  • The error code (0xc0000098) and associated messages.
  • The ACPI.sys driver issue.
  • The primary impact on virtual environments and enterprise users.
  • Contrast with the Windows 10 BitLocker issue.


Critical Windows 11 Update Blocker Hits Enterprises, Microsoft Releases Patch

A significant issue preventing the installation of the May 13, 2025 Windows security update (KB5058405) on certain Windows 11, version 22H2 and 23H2 devices has prompted Microsoft to release an out-of-band (OOB) patch, KB5062170. This problem, primarily affecting virtual environments such as Azure Virtual Machines, Azure Virtual Desktop, and on-premises virtual machines (Citrix or Hyper-V), presents users with "your PC/Device needs to be repaired" warnings and error code 0xc0000098 due to missing or erroneous files.

Starlink is only for the rich or for big offices!" — that’s what many people think

  "Starlink is only for the rich or for big offices!" — that’s what many people think. But actually, that’s not true. With a little effort and some smart planning, even ordinary people in villages — shopkeepers, rickshaw pullers — can use this high-speed internet if they come together as a group. How is it possible at such a low cost? Let’s break it down: Starlink’s monthly bill is around 4,200 to 6,000 BDT. That may seem expensive for one person, but if 20 to 25 people share the cost, it becomes very affordable: Monthly cost per person (if 20 people share): 4,200 ÷ 20 = just 210 BDT! One-time setup cost (dish, router, etc.): Around 50,000 BDT (only paid once) So even a rickshaw puller could use high-speed Wi-Fi by paying just 200–250 BDT per month! Here’s how it works, in simple steps: 1. Install the Starlink dish in an open space with a clear view of the sky. 2. A cable runs from the dish to the Starlink modem. 3. The modem is connected to a Wi-Fi router. 4. The ...

5 Great Linux Utilities to Monitor Your System Resources in the Terminal

  Although the standard Linux utilities have served us well over the years, in some scenarios they fall short. If you've ever found yourself writing a one-liner to poll a command or struggling to parse a badly formatted table, then it's a clear sign that the tools at hand are lacking. What you need are better tools; what I have are better tools—five that will make your Linux life easier. 1 NCurses Disk Usage (ncdu) To view the sizes of directories, du is a solid choice, and it's generally the first pick for most people. However, it lacks exploratory capabilities. A few times a year, my system complains to me that it's running low on disk space, and I find myself exploring the file system to manually delete large directories of accumulated garbage. This is where du lacks, and where ncdu shines. With its simple interface,  ncdu provides blazing-fast exploration to size up directories . Those familiar with Vim will feel at home because it uses Vim keys for navigation; tho...
