most recent windows 11 update is wiping SSDs

there's been multiple reports of people's computers not booting properly after the windows 11 24H2 KB5063878 update due to it essentially wiping the hard drives (specifically SSDs) on computers and laptops. users have reported their SSDs aren't able to be read/recognized and unable to be seen in bios settings either.

sources: - https://www.windowslatest.com/2025/08/20/microsoft-is-investigating-windows-11-kb5063878-ssd-data-corruption-failure-issue/ - https://www.nichepcgamer.com/archives/windows11-24h2-issue-with-writing-to-the-ssd-is-this-caused-by-kb5063878-kb5062660.html

it's safe to assume all SSDs can be potentially affected by this update, so if you haven't updated yet turn off autoupdates

the bug caused by this update is seemingly triggered by installing/moving/deleting large files (50+ gb), which as simmers is what a lot of us do very pften

if you're unsure what windows version you currently have:

go to settings > system > about (at they very bottom) > and scroll down to see the current OS version

if you do currently have windows 11 24H2:

in settings, click 'Windows update' > 'Update history' > and under 'Quality Updates' check to see if the KB5063878 update is in the list of recently installed updates

don't panic, you can uninstall this update!

while in 'Update History', scroll to the very bottom and click 'Uninstall updates', and click 'Uninstall' for 'Security Update for Microsoft Windows (KB5063878)'

from there, give it some time to remove the update and after pause updates for as long as possible (5 weeks is the longest i think), but it will force an update if there's a big/official update for the fix

if you've already been affected and your computer is not starting or giving errors regarding your hard drive, i recommend visiting small pc repair shops to try data recovery as some have reported placing their SSD in an enclosure seems to work to recover the data

hopefully this is helpful is any kind of way! friendly reminder to back up your data to an external drive routinely!

Privacy should absolutely be a human right and not a privilege- a dude who grew up with little to no privacy due to circumstances out of his control

Gonna be completely chat I always found "no doubles" in fictionkin or self shipping circles dumb. Like why are you getting upset at someone liking and appreciating the same character as you? Why are you getting upset that someone finds the same character relatable?

It is worth celebrating finding a person who is just as crazy about f/o or characters as you are 😭

Please please do not spoil anything for me I'm strictly talking about Offs combat system and not like anything lore wise.

So okay I love rpgs I love them a lot, but having grown up with turn based, I started screaming when I realized turns were in fact time based in off and not like "you go next and the enemy goes after you". the ONLY other rpg I played with that mechanic was a mother fan game called Mother Cognitive Dissonance and I remember getting my ass handed to me because the timer hated me so much

It's weird because all the characters have bones in their hair when they get electrocuted (with a few exceptions obviously) Wilsons just more noticeable bc his hair is his defining trait of his design 😭

every time someone brings up that sight gag where wilson gets electrocuted and has bones in his hair completely seriously like it's some sort of secret lore, i succumb to the curse a little more

The shitty thing about typing lyrics via romaji is I have to really think of what Japanese phonemes I remember and which ones make accurate sounds to English word. It's not gonna be 100% accurate but it's like a hell of a lot better fighting with Vocaloids phonetic system because GOD FORBID someone just wants a k sound from a Japanese voice bank 😭

Hey so like my brain is doing the "oh you're talking to people don't you know you're an annoying POS? Bad moth, go to your room" so I'm asking my mutuals genuinely

If I was being annoying you'd tell me right? If I was stepping over a boundary you'd tell me?

Everytime I think about my art in 2022 I cry inside I cannot believe I am the same person who drew these 😭
