Microsoft explains game-crashing bug in latest Windows 11 update, says it ‘likely didn’t’ affect many people

Microsoft explains game-crashing bug in latest Windows 11 update, clarifying it affected certain PCs with games using Easy Anti-Cheat causing crashes.
The initial June update for Windows 11 24H2 (KB5060842) was paused due to compatibility issues, replaced by a revised update (KB5063060).
The bug involved Easy Anti-Cheat causing PC game crashes, prompting Microsoft to release a second update for affected devices.
Users with games using EAC may have not received the initial update to avoid crashing, and should have received the tweaked update now (KB5063060).
Microsoft stated that the incompatibility issue was limited but didn't differentiate between PCs experiencing crashes and those not receiving the update.
Confusion arose about the need for the second patch if the first one was installed, especially for users with games using Easy Anti-Cheat.
Receiving either patch ensures security fixes and feature improvements, with the second one addressing the EAC bug.
The situation caused uncertainty for users with EAC games, with Microsoft not clearly defining which PCs were affected by the bug.
Microsoft recommends checking Windows Update for the second patch if experiencing game crashes with EAC.
The bug may have affected a limited set of Windows 11 devices but impacted users prevented from receiving the June update.

Amazon Signs Data Centre Nuclear Power Deal

US power provider Talen Energy has expanded its nuclear energy relationship with Amazon to provide carbon-free energy from Talen's Susquehanna nuclear power plant to Amazon Web Services data centers in Pennsylvania.
Nuclear power is being considered as a solution to meet the increasing energy demands of modern data centers driven by AI technologies.
Talen and Amazon plan to explore building new Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and expanding the nuclear plant's energy output to contribute additional energy to the grid.
Amazon will receive 1,920 megawatts of nuclear power through 2042 from Talen, with the potential to extend the agreement further.
Amazon is investing $20 billion to construct two data centers in Pennsylvania, one located next to Talen's nuclear power plant.
The direct connection to a nuclear power plant accelerates the development of data centers and provides a faster way to procure power compared to the traditional grid connection.
Meta Platforms and Constellation signed a 20-year power purchase agreement for emissions-free nuclear energy to support Meta's clean energy goals and operations in the region.
Alphabet's Google signed an agreement to buy power from small modular nuclear reactors, and Microsoft signed a deal to restart a shuttered nuclear reactor at Three Mile Island.
