Microsoft can't even release a fix for Window's recovery partition being too small to stage updates. I had to do it myself, fucking amateurs.

Can't or won't? The same issue exists for both windows 10 and 11, but they haven't closed the ticket for windows 11.... Typical bullshit. It's not exactly planned obsolescence, but when a bug comes up like that they're just gonna grab the opportunity to go "sry impossible, plz buy new products"

I didn't know that. So the ticket is still open for 11 but there's still no fix?

That is my understanding.

I can't find the article that I read just yesterday, but this is somewhat the same story: https://www.theregister.com/2024/05/03/microsoft_windows_recovery_environment/

Not to mention what a bitch that partition is when you need to shrink or increase the size of your windows partition. If you need to upgrade your storage, or resize to partition to make room for other operating systems, you have to follow like 20 steps of voodoo magic commands to do it.

The possibility of a catastrophic fuck up is way too high to put this on the average Windows user.
