Microsoft admits there are Windows 11 problems it just can’t fix

have found a bug which prevents the Start menu, Windows search bar and some Universal Windows Platform apps from starting or working correctly.

The bugs don’t affect everyone, but those who are encountering them first noticed something wasn’t right back in January of this year. If you were hoping that during that time Microsoft had figured out how to fix the problem, then I have some bad news for you., Microsoft notes that the “Windows search, and Universal Windows Platform apps might not work as expected or might have issues opening,” and in a recent update it has provided a workaround for the problem.

Essentially, it seems like Microsoft is admitting that it’s as baffled as us by the problem, and that the only way to avoid the issue is to start uninstalling apps. That’s pretty poor, especially as Microsoft doesn’t list the apps that are causing the issue, just that they integrate with “Windows, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Calendar,” which doesn’t narrow it down at all.

Microsoft claims that it is working on a resolution, and I hope it's able to roll one out that fixes the issue without making users uninstall certain apps. It's concerning, though, that there seem to be areas where Windows 11 is so broken that Microsoft simply can’t fix it.
