CBS crashes on Windows 11 24H2 KB5046740
I'm trying to maintain a stable system, but every Windows update seems to trigger a CBS crash, making the machine barely functional. The issue first appeared after upgrading to 24H2, and despite performing several in-place upgrades (refresh installs), the problem hasn't gone away. While the computer successfully merged all MSU files and installed the latest Windows version using the in-place upgrade process, I can't rely on this method for every update—it’s simply not practical. Here’s what I discovered this time: The Windows update KB5046740 was applied using an unexpanded variable, specifically referencing ($build.nttree). This occurred during the transition from version 10.0.26100.2314 (installed via in-place upgrade) to 10.0.26100.2454.
Strange Happenings on Windows 11 computer
I recently upgraded to Windows 11 and have been experiencing some strange happenings that are quite puzzling. It seems like certain features don't always work as expected, and I've encountered unexpected crashes or lags when using common apps. Sometimes, the taskbar icons flicker, and the Start menu takes an unusually long time to open. I’m not sure if it's a software glitch or if something is off with my settings.
