There must be something really seriously wrong at Microsoft. I can understand that Windows patches are complex and that they might break some of those crazy things people are running on their machines. But how is a bug that is killing access to the C:\ drive able to get through testing? WTF are they doing?
It's going to come out that there's AI in the code. And the code testing was done by AI, who gave the buggy code the green light.
Or worse: AI is doing the QA as well
What QA? Microsoft's QA was always the CEO demoing the latest repository head on stage.

They don’t need testing because they tell the ai to not make any errors

You don't need C:\. All your data should be in the 365 cloud anyway. Storing files locally in C:\ leads to antipatterns like not paying Microsoft for 365 access (a.k.a "Software Piracy")
I like how, once AI is invented, there is never a problem that isn't AI related.
Microsoft made broken shit before AI, it isn't like they suddenly lost that capability once AI was invented.
It's more like the old adage but extended: "To err is human, to really foul things up you need a computer, but to make an unbelievable mess you need an AI."

Huh, my computer doesn't seem to be affected.
I'm using Arch, btw.
I think I'm affected because I can't access the C: Drive.
I'm using Debian, btw.
I think I'm affected because I can't locate a c: drive.
I'm using Mint, BTW.

A lot of people didnt read the issue. This was an issue with the samsung connect app.
and people are just blaming microsoft for it
It's funnier that way
Microsoft believes the issue may be related to the Samsung Share application, although the exact cause has not yet been confirmed.

There was a story going around back in September ago about the person whose wife used OneDrive on her phone. It had taken upon itself to copy 25+GB of data on the phone into OneDrive, despite only having the free account tier, and copying it to their Windows 11 PC. There it completely filled up its small SSD boot drive, putting it into a condition of extremely low disk space, which in made it impossible for Windows to boot. Here it is.

Install Linux. Problem Solved.
It’s hilarious that the issues people think Linux has, like for example the disk deleting itself, are exactly what happens on Windows lol.

Solution: install linux
Just like I have been calling macOS "NonfreeBSD" I will now be calling Windows 11 "Slop_OS"
Microslop.
They need to rapidly reduce the complexity of their software if they want to get this under control. The answer is NOT to add more features, it’s to simplify things.
They aren't capable of doing that.
Source on that is me, I worked for MSFT during the rollout of Windows 8 and the 360 red ring nightmare.
They're internally wayyyyy too culty and cliquey.
Everyone has to do things the MSFT way, and the MSFT way is team leads all leading their own thing and arguing about why its so cool and necessary.
The culture is diametrically opposed to simplifying things and reorienting around a fundamentally minimized, more stable core system.
Everything has to be able to plug into as many other things as possible, which creates insane nested dependency loops and chains that they fuck up all the time.

morged continvously
Bunch braindead vibe coders at fault I bet
Never again, Windows.
What would happen if you trained an AI entirely and solely on Microslop's knowledge base?
