Microsoft has just reported a new bug found within Windows 11 that affects functionality known as “System Restore”. This feature is used on a day-to-day basis to eliminate the changes made in Windows 11 after installing programs or updates.
Taking into account its importance when it comes to solving possible problems in the operation of Windows 11, it is curious that there is a problem when using this feature. What Microsoft has commented is that A series of errors have occurred after using applications after performing a Windows 11 system restore.
The error in these applications is due to a bug in Windows 11 version 22H2 and that affects exactly applications installed via the MSIX application package. Yes, it sounds strange and you might think that this package is used by complex applications, but this is far from the truth.
In fact, the basic applications of windows use this package. That is why when restoring Windows 11 Programs such as Notepad, Paint, Cortana, Terminal, or Office applications may start to crash. The bug affects randomly so there is no solution that works 100% of the time.
Windows 11 system restore isn’t working as it should
Being an error that is classified as a system bug, the only thing that can be done to find a solution is to wait for Microsoft release a system update that fixes the problem. Of course, you can restart applications or uninstall them in case they do not work in order to try to solve the error.
In any case, Microsoft has to release an update for Windows 11 that puts an end to this problem. And, is that, not being able to use system restore prevents users from making changes within their computer without fear of a problem. For the moment the positive is that Microsoft knows of the existence of this error.
As long as an update is not released, it is advisable to be careful when installing updates or programs that may damage the computer Since, unfortunately, in the event that something goes wrong, the system cannot be restored without it being able to offer errors in the operation of different applications such as the ones mentioned.
