Question Thread title change: Requirements for W11 24H2 ?

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

Recently started seeing this when I power down or restart my computer. I've ran sfc, dism, ms virus scanner, uninstalled a recent update.. basically tore through my system to see what the hell is causing it. I can literally boot the computer, not touch it for any amount of time, grab the mouse and either restart or shut it down and the message still keeps appearing. Any idea why this is happening?

Microsoft releases a monthly cumulative update to Windows every second Tuesday of a month, dubbed "patch Tuesday," however sometimes the company has the updates ready to go before that date, and puts them out as Update Previews. These are not "beta" versions of a software update, but contents of...

So I've noticed gaming feels different now with this install and I was wondering what the requirements were for W11 24H2. I was one of those people who enabled Secure Boot just to install 11 and when 23H2 was offered I didn't get it, so are things like Secure Boot, TMP enabled, and things like that required for 24H2?

Thanks

I've never seen the message in the OP before.

Find [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\AutoEndTasks] and set it to 1

See if that helps.

Hey thanks for the suggestion. I didn't get a chance to try that. I installed 24H2 which leads into my next question for anybody that has it. Every-time I run sfc /scannow it comes up with corrupted files. Every. Time. Is that just the nature of 24H2 or is something going on with my end?

Thanks

There is an application process that is hanging that is preventing your machine from shutting down. If you are forcing a shutdown, it may be corrupting system files. And, if you have not done so, you might also run a CHKDSK session on your drive to ensure you don't have file system corruption as well.

The next time it happens, try the following as it may or may not allow you to identify the application:

1) Hit cancel to return to the desktop
2) Go to the Windows Event Viewer, and view the application log. Sort the log by time/date decending
3) Check for an event that mentions something about an application attempting to veto the shutdown (it will use the word "veto"). It ought to be one of the first several events in the list that you see.

If you find an event saying this, the EXE file it points to is part of the software that is hanging. You can do a google search to see what software that EXE is a part of so you can try to remove or reinstall it.

Have a trawl through C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. If it's the same file that's "corrupted" every time I suspect it's an issue with SFC rather than an actual file corruption issue. For example, I've found that running SFC on a clean Win11 23H2 install on multiple PCs results in bthmodem.sys being reported as corrupted.
