Microsoft's latest attempt to repair Windows 10 broke the media player

THIS IS ONLY Monday morning, we must already address another problem in the October update of Microsoft Open to Windows 10.

The bi-annual update of Windows 10 "as a service" is already in the stock status, and yet it seems we have not finished yet.

This time, it is a problem of multimedia reading, and more particularly of the "search bar", that we have learned to understand, it is the bit that allows you to find the specific piece of a song. This only applies to the default player. This iTunes borkage? Separate bug.

In short, it has been broken and apparently trying to fix the latest bug ride.

Microsoft has officially acknowledged the problem, stating that it "is working on a resolution and will provide an update in a future release".

There is currently no schedule for the fix.

Of course, compared to something like causing BSODs, destroying files, refusing to associate programs with files, or not being able to track the networked drives it mapped, then not being able to to get your favorite piece of hard drive. Rick and Morty This does not seem to be a big problem, but Microsoft is still introducing more errors than it fixes with this update, and if Microsoft is not able to handle its own bugfixes, then who?

What is particularly irritating is that if it was not "Windows as a service", the problem would not have as much of an impact as it would have had. he was there.

Why? Windows 10 being the first version of Windows to have never known that the "rollup" of multiple patches in one download. Previously, he could have just removed the bad pieces and left them in their "last good known version".

But in the era when we download a single monthly update and a new version of the operating system twice a year, without being able to perform selective sorting, customers are continually force-fed with "slightly borked" versions of Windows 10 and are invited to participate in What is a seemingly endless game of Whack-a-Mole.

Unfortunately, a policy change will require a thorough analysis of the issue by Microsoft. They are usually not brilliant until the user base suffers a little more. μ
