    Hi,

    I'm Sumit, here to answer your query at the Microsoft Community.

    Apologies for any inconvenience you are experiencing. I am happy to help you today.

    What are those games that crash?

    Via https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/relea...

    After installing Windows 11, version 24H2, you might encounter issues with the games listed below. These games might become unresponsive while starting, loading or during active gameplay. In some cases, users might receive a black screen. The affected games are:

    ​Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    ​Assassin's Creed Origins

    ​Assassin's Creed Odyssey

    To safeguard your Windows update experience, we have applied a compatibility hold on devices with these games installed. These devices will not be offered to install Windows 11, version 24H2 via the Windows Update release channel. IT administrators using Windows Update for Business reports can check these issues using the following safeguard IDs: 54437462.

    Resolved Titles:

    Star Wars Outlaws and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora are no longer affected by this issue due to temporary hotfixes deployed by Ubisoft. While these fixes mitigate the crashes, players might still experience some performance issues. For more details, see the release notes for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora – Title Update 1.2 and Star Wars Outlaws – Title Update 1.4.0. The safeguard hold (ID 54580160) that was previously in place for these two games has been lifted as of 12/05/2024. Note that, once these fixes are applied, it may take up to 48 hours for the Windows 11, version 24H2 update to be offered via Windows Update. Restarting your device might expedite the process.

    If they are not of Ubisoft,

    Please see the Display driver troubleshooting below:

    Option 1: Try Rolling back the Display driver.

    Right-click the Start button and select Device Manager.

    Navigate to Display devices and expand it. Right-click your Display adapter.

    Choose Properties.

    On the Driver tab, click the Rollback Driver button to go back to the previous version.

    Option 2. Remove the Display drivers completely and Install the newest copy of the driver, available from the OEM or the GPU maker. The steps for it are here:

    https://www.yourwindowsguide.com/2022/02/troubl...

    Eventually, after Windows restarts, check for Windows updates, or download the display driver from the computer manufacturer:

    Download Intel Drivers and Software

    https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/downloa...

    Official Drivers | NVIDIA

    https://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx

    AMD Drivers and Support for Radeon, Radeon Pro, FirePro, APU, CPU, Ryzen, desktops, laptops

    https://www.amd.com/en/support

    After the installation, see if your issue is resolved.

    MS can fk all the way off......

    **** blue screens on 40% of builds and the other 60% have too many game issues.

    This is by far the worst failure I've seen by MS.

    I personally won't be buying MS OS anymore
