New Windows 11 update is causing headaches for IT teams.

Microsoft’s latest major update for Windows 11 hasn’t even been out for a month yet and it’s already causing issues for some businesses.

We’ve already reported on a printer bug that has plagued devices running the 22H2 update, but the company’s support site now suggests the update is causing problems for businesses looking to set up computers on behalf of their employees too.

As of October 6, Microsoft is investigating a problem that may cause provisioning packages not to work correctly. These are PPKG files, which are typically used for configuring devices to work on business networks.

Microsoft’s summary of the issue states that "Windows might only be partially configured, and the Out Of Box Experience might not finish or might restart unexpectedly.”

“Provisioning packages which are applied during initial setup are most likely to be impacted by this issue.”

Until it can patch this malfunction, Microsoft says: “if you can provision the Windows device before upgrading to Windows 11, version 22H2, this will prevent the issue”, however, this is far from an ideal solution for companies that have already committed to the upgrade.

Last month, as mentioned, Microsoft also discovered that 22H2 was causing printers using the Microsoft IPP Class Driver or Universal Print Class Driver to resort to default settings.

With users unable to use printer-specific settings, like color options, two-sided printing, and print quality, Microsoft swiftly put a pause on signing 22H2 to affected users and suggests that these users avoid manually upgrading to the latest version of its OS until a fix has been released.

Separately, the company is investigating issues for customers using remote desktop software, apparently also linked to the latest Windows 11 update.

Microsoft will hope it can put out the various fires quickly and that these are the last of the unwelcome surprises for Windows 11 users.

We reached out to Rich and his team at Computer Geek in July 2021. We were in desperate need of help because our former website design agency left us hanging with major website issues that needed immediate attention. Rich and his team were extremely helpful and quick to come to our rescue! They have helped us with numerous projects that have helped our SEO. Our sales have increased 30% since coming to Computer Geek. We've been working with them for about nine months now and are very pleased with their response time and helpful manner. Rich has proven himself to be trustworthy and dependable. We feel valued as a customer and look forward to continuing a relationship with Computer Geek.

I would certainly like to recommend that anyone pursing maintenance for a website to contact The Computer Geek. I have been using another company to do some maintenance on my site with moderate success. There were issues that were evidently beyond what could be handled by them. However, the professionals at The Computer Geek had them addressed and rectified in no time at all. The Computer Geek approached all of my requests focusing on my goals and the needed performance. Then, once versed, presented me with a very reasonable price. Once the projects were in motion, I found that the tasks were achieved before I expected, with professional results. Also, in one instance where The Computer Geeks brought an issue to my attention that I would have likely overlooked. This was accompanied by a recommendation on how to solve the issue. Overall The Computer Geeks exceeded my expectations!

We discovered an issue with our Oscommerce cart processing images. It is about 14 years old and heavily modified. Looking on google for some expert help I found Rich and reached out to him. We received a response the same day. The next day his team was working on our issue and was able to solve it within a few hours. Price was reasonable and we are very appreciative to find a competent and professional oscommerce expert to help successfully troubleshoot our issue.
