Microsoft admits Windows 11 24H2 is causing gaming issues, breaks USB connections (excerpts)
Since the last two months, Windows Latest has covered more than two dozen issues introduced by Windows 11 24H2. Another new problem with Ubisoft games has emerged after the
issue with the Anti-cheat engine and Asphalt 8. Windows Latest spotted this change in update to Microsoft’s support documentation.
Like the previous problems, when a player tries to run some Ubisoft game on their newly updated Windows 11 24H2 PC, the game faces a launch issue. Even if it manages to run, it either stops responding or shows a black screen. Here’s the list of affected games listed in the
official announcement:
eSCL is a driverless scanning protocol to find available devices (printers, scanners) via USB or wireless networks. However, 24H2 breaks its functioning, and the computer cannot find the devices that are connected using this protocol.
So, many users who use Mopria printers in offices or at home are left stranded.
Microsoft has no workaround for this issue and will halt the update offer for any PC with such printer drivers. Like the previous issue, you must return to 23H2 to ensure your scanners, printers, and other eSCL devices work properly.
Avoid forcibly installing the 24H2 update if you don’t see the notification yet in the Settings app. Microsoft might be blocking it until your device meets the upgrade standards.
