Windows 11 version 24H2 has many bugs, and Microsoft announced that they will be fixed in update KB5044384, released on October 24, 2024.Known issuesOther issues have been partially resolved.
Deprecated Windows 11 24H2 is full of bugs
But I still can't recommend it.
24H2 also has a bug that causes the menu that appears when you click "More (...)" on the Explorer toolbar to expand to the top regardless of the location of Explorer.
For example, if you use Explorer at the top of the screen or maximize it, and click "More (...)", part of the menu will be cut off.

*Currently, ISO files downloaded from the Windows 11 download page and the media creation tool are version 24H2. 23H2 is no longer available.

I think it would be best to hold off on updating to 24H2 for a while.
If you are updating to 24H2, be sure to back up your important files.
■Windows Update Please note that in some environments where "Get the latest updates as soon as they become available" is set to "On" on the above screen, the 24H2 update may be automatically performed.

New feature in Win11: "Fix problems with Windows Update" I tried but couldn't solve it.
I checked and found that once this problem occurs, it cannot be resolved even by uninstalling the update program (KB5044384, etc.).
