Microsoft admits Windows 11 24H2 issue with file checker, fix in…
Windows 11 24H2 is off to a good start. It doesn’t have as many issues as previous Windows updates, but we’ve noticed at least two undocumented bugs. First, there’s a problem that causes the cursor to disappear or become invisible. Second, there’s an issue that creates an 8.63GB update cache, which cannot be deleted using Disk Cleanup.
I’m not going to go into the details of the cursor because we’ve already discussed it in a previous article, but let’s talk about the 8.63GB Windows Update cache issue. After installing Windows 11 24H2, Windows Latest noticed that the update creates an 8.63GB Windows Update cleanup cache.
While the Windows Update cache is quite normal and visible in tools like Disk Cleanup or Storage Cleanup, an odd bug in Windows 11 24H2 won’t let you purge the update cache or files.
Disk cleanup and Storage settings attempt to remove the update cache files, but they don’t work, as the Windows Update cleanup cache continues to take up to 8.63GB of storage.
