But many people simply forget to check for these updates regularly, so it may be weeks or months before their PC is patched. To further reduce the risk of your computer being compromised, it is important that patches are installed as soon as possible after they are released. Windows 10 now automatically checks for patches that will close security loopholes and repair the bugs used by hackers to gain control of your computer. It now also supports Android apps.The Windows Update mechanism has become an important tool in the fight against malware and cybercriminals.

Although this bug has been reported on the Microsoft Feedback Hub, the company hasn’t acknowledged the issue as of now. As per a user in Reddit, the computer is allocating too much RAM to the File Explorer and the allocation keeps on increasing until you restart the program using the Task Manager or restart the machine altogether. Apart from the above-mentioned bugs, few users have also reported memory leak issues after installing the new operating system.

The performance issue may be as high as 15% in certain games, but usually the impact ranges between 3% and 5%. According to AMD, after installing Windows 11, measured and functional 元 cache latency on its processors may increase as much as three times that impacts the access time of applications sensitive to memory subsystems. Computer processor manufacturer AMD has revealed that Windows 11 is negatively affecting its processors, which may result in reduced performance. Announced in June, the operating system was available for public testing for three months and while most of the bugs were resolved before the public release, few issues have slipped by undetected.

Microsoft has started to roll out the Windows 11 update for compatible devices this week.
