Microsoft has acknowledged an active investigation after multiple community researchers, test benches and SSD vendors reported that the Windows 11 August cumulative (commonly tracked as KB5063878, OS Build 26100.4946) can cause certain SSDs to vanish from the operating system during sustained...

Microsoft and SSD vendors are scrambling after multiple independent testers and users reported that a recent Windows 11 cumulative update can make NVMe SSDs vanish from the operating system during sustained large writes — a failure mode that in some cases has left files corrupted or drives...

Microsoft has quietly acknowledged a serious disruption in core Windows recovery flows and pushed emergency, out‑of‑band (OOB) updates after the August 2025 Patch Tuesday rollups left some systems unable to complete “Reset this PC,” cloud re‑image operations, and certain remote wipe jobs — and...

Dell’s 14‑inch Inspiron 2‑in‑1 is being advertised in reseller channels as a surprisingly well‑spec’d convertible — a configuration that pairs the AMD Ryzen 5 8640HS with unusually large memory and storage (32 GB DDR5 and a 2 TB NVMe SSD), an FHD+ touchscreen with Dolby Vision, AI‑enhanced...

Microsoft’s August patch cycle went from routine to risky in under a week: an August 12 cumulative rollup introduced a servicing regression that could cause the built‑in Reset and cloud recovery flows to fail, and community reports of SSDs becoming inaccessible under heavy write workloads added...

Microsoft’s August cumulative for Windows 11 (KB5063878, OS Build 26100.4946) has been linked by multiple community tests and specialist outlets to a narrow but severe storage regression in which some NVMe SSDs can suddenly become unresponsive or disappear during sustained, large writes — a...

Microsoft’s latest Windows 11 cumulative update has been linked by multiple community tests and vendor advisories to a storage regression that, under specific conditions, can make some NVMe SSDs disappear during large sustained writes — risking data corruption or loss — and has reignited a...

Phison has confirmed it is investigating reports that Microsoft’s August cumulative for Windows 11 (24H2) — distributed as KB5063878 — is associated with a storage regression that can make certain NVMe SSDs stop responding or disappear from Windows during large, sustained write operations...

Microsoft’s August cumulative (KB5063878) is making some SSDs and HDDs vanish mid‑write, and a patchwork of community testing, vendor responses and cautious guidance now makes a compelling case for pausing non‑urgent Windows updates and treating large, continuous file transfers as high‑risk...

Microsoft’s latest cumulative for Windows 11 24H2 has been tied to a small but serious cluster of storage failures that can make NVMe SSDs disappear during heavy writes and, in a handful of cases, leave data unreadable — a scare that underscores why updating and backup discipline still matters...

The August cumulative for Windows 11 — identified as KB5063878 (OS Build 26100.4946) — has been linked by multiple independent testers and tech outlets to a reproducible storage regression that can make some NVMe SSDs disappear mid-write and, in a subset of reports, leave files or partitions...

The Windows update ecosystem once again landed in the headlines this month after community researchers and multiple publications raised alarms about KB5063878 — the August 12, 2025 cumulative update for Windows 11 24H2 — and claims that a sustained-write workload can make some NVMe SSDs...

Microsoft’s August cumulative for Windows 11 24H2 (KB5063878) has been linked by independent testers and enthusiast communities to a reproducible storage regression in which certain NVMe SSDs can suddenly stop responding during sustained large writes, sometimes vanishing from Device Manager and...

Microsoft’s August cumulative for Windows 11 (KB5063878) is at the center of a growing, technically consistent set of community reports: after installing the update, some users say NVMe SSDs can “vanish” during large, sustained file writes — sometimes leaving files corrupted, SMART/controller...

Microsoft’s Windows 11 24H2 rollout has already spawned two separate storage headaches: an earlier compatibility surge that produced looping Blue Screens of Death (BSODs) on certain Western Digital and SanDisk NVMe drives, and a later August 12, 2025 cumulative patch (KB5063878, OS Build...

A Windows 11 cumulative update released on August 12, 2025 — KB5063878 (OS Build 26100.4946) — has been linked by multiple community tests and specialist outlets to a potentially serious storage regression that can make some NVMe SSDs disappear from the operating system during large, sustained...

Microsoft’s August cumulative for Windows 11 (KB5063878, OS Build 26100.4946) has been tied by multiple independent community tests and tech outlets to a serious storage regression: under sustained, large sequential writes some SSDs can stop responding, disappear from Windows, and — in a...

Microsoft’s staggered Windows 11 24H2 rollout has tripped a serious compatibility landmine: scattered but reproducible reports show that one recent cumulative update can cause some NVMe SSDs to become unresponsive or vanish during sustained large writes, and earlier instances of the 24H2 feature...

Microsoft's File Explorer is getting a practical, productivity-focused facelift that pushes more commands and AI into the surface users already interact with — hover-activated quick-action buttons for Home items, an experimental AI Actions menu and deeper Copilot integration — even as the app...

Microsoft’s August cumulative for Windows 11 (KB5063878, OS Build 26100.4946) has been tied in independent community testing and aggregation threads to a serious storage regression that can render certain NVMe SSDs inaccessible during large, sustained write operations — and administrators also...
