It looks like I’m going to have to re-install Windows 11… over Windows 11, because the most recent preview update isn’t going through for some reason. And a lot of people seem to be having issues with this update.

I did not expect this to be on my Bingo card for 2026, but it seems like I have no other choice in the matter if I want to continue updating this thing. Why Windows had to mess up what had previously been a perfectly good system of updates is beyond me, and I hope to upgrade this computer at some point, but it is what it is.

I just want this computer to function for as long as it possibly can and play my kid’s games. That’s really it.
