Question

Windows 11, version 24H2 update is available, Should We update, or will that break LrC

I have created this discussion post to inquire about 24H2. I am looking for comments and links to documents.

 

So, MS appears to be now rolling out the 24H2 update. The question is, should we? Should LrC users trust this Windows update, or wait for more bugs to be fixed?

 

Yes, some members may have new computers that already have this version. But many of those members with 24H2 have WOS/CoPilot/ARM Devices and are having issues not because of 24H2, but due to a lack of current Adobe support for those computers. But what about members having Windows 11 version 23H2 and older?

 

Wait for further bug fixes? Wait for Adobe to state ready to go (I do not remember them ever doing so on previous OS updates).

 

Does anyone who has updated the OS regret doing so?

I'm holding off on the 24H2 update, though I haven't heard anything specific about issues with Lightroom. Gaming, though, which might have some tangential fallout given the similar taxing of computer systems for graphics and processing. I really like the work done by the site AskWoody.com. They have knowledgable people who track and test issues and make recommendations on where you might want to hold off and how to stop your computer from forcing updates. Great site. They recommend against the update right now for various reasons. They have a page where they have the tl;dr version of their recommendations called Master Patch List available to Plus members on a pay-what-you-like donation model. Been a long-time subscriber. Don't know any of the people personally.

I am using 24H2, and have done so for a while with no issues with LRC. My setup went from Win 11 23H2.

For me, no regrets at all.😊

No,  my setup is Intel—rather an old CPU, an i5-8600 by today's standards, but good enough for me! I also have a dedicated GPU.
