• February 2024 patches for Windows

    Posted on February 13, 2024 at 12:13 CST by • Comment in the Forums

    Ready or not, here comes the February updates for Windows.

    Will we see a fix for our  KB5034441 for Windows 10 22H2 and in KB5034440 for Windows 11 woes? (so far, the answer is no)

    What we will see is “Highlights for Windows 11, versions 22H2 & 23H2 (cont.) •The Copilot in Windows icon will appear on the right side of the system tray on the taskbar. Also, the display of Show desktop at the rightmost corner of the taskbar will be off by default.”

    Ugh. And double Ugh.

    I’ll be adding more links to this post as I digest the info.

    And of course it’s a “dribbled” change

    • Note Windows 11 devices will get this new functionality at different times. Some of these new features roll out gradually using controlled feature rollout (CFR) to consumers.

    Remember if you get Copilot and don’t want it, we’ve got your back here and here.

    Grrrrrrrrrr and double grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
