Windows 11 update borks a bunch of Ubisoft games
The latest Windows 11 update doesnt play well with Ubisoft games Assassins Creed Valhalla, Assassins Creed Origins, Assassins Creed Odyssey, Star Wars Outlaws, and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, Microsoft warned on Nov. 22.After installing Windows 11, version 24H2, you might encounter issues with someUbisoftgames, Microsoft said. These games might become unresponsive while starting, loading or during active gameplay.In some cases, users might receive a black screen.Ubisoft released a hotfix addressing the Windows 11 bugs in Star Wars Outlaws on Nov. 21 shortly after the forced stealth-focused update, but Microsoft added there may still be performance issues. A compatibility hold has been placed on computers with these specific Ubisoft games installed until a permanent solution can be found.We recommend that you do not attempt to manually update to version 24H2 using the Windows 11 Installation Assistant or the media creation tool until this issue has been resolved, Microsoft said.If youve been affected and cant exit your game normally, Microsoft suggested using Task Manager to end the task via the Process tab, instructions I can only assume are meant for Boomers and Zoomers, because what self-respecting Millennial doesnt already know how to do this?Windows 11, version 24H2 dropped on Oct. 1. Its unclear which of the updates many features were incongruous with Ubisoft games specifically, but knowing how finicky computers can be, Im going to pick randomly from the list and say maybe it was the more streamlined File Explorer, whatever that means.
