Windows 11 update is riddled with bugs

Dear Microsoft team and developers, windows update is slowing down systems and in some cases, crashing them. People in my organisation are gradually moving to apple because of your annoying buggy updates that negatively affects our computers. We are tired, is it an every day thing? We update today, another comes tomorrow. This is annoying. I am really disappointed. I have restarted my computer 5 times because of update and I use a 13th generation Acer Nitro V core i7.

    Press Win+I to enter Settings and select Suspend Updates for 7 days in Windows Update. To roll back the patch, you need to run the PowerShell command wusa /uninstall /kb:5031445 /quiet (replacing it with the actual KB number) as administrator, and to solve the problem completely, you need to wait for Microsoft to release a fix or join the Release Preview channel to get the stable update in advance.
