    Windows 11 24H2 released today and updated 3 times due to errors and BSOD's but finally got it installed, then a few hours later a BSOD and spent most of the day figuring out why, apparently I needed to change the Phison NVMe 1.2 Miniport driver back to the Standard NVMe Express Controller driver in Storage Controllers!!

    I updated today and now I can not access the internet, run some programs, and sometimes my user id is not recognized. I tried uninstalling and this did not work. It actually shows the update still on my computer and but I can not uninstall it as an option anymore.
