Microsoft is working on a brand new Windows feature, “Quick Machine Recovery,” that can allow IT administrators to make use of Windows Update with “targeted fixes” to remotely fix systems that may’t boot, in line with Bleeping Computer.
The brand new feature is an element of the Windows Resiliency Initiative — Microsoft’s efforts to stop a repeat of the outage that occurred in July 2024, when a buggy Crowdstrike update left tons of of hundreds of Windows computers unable to start out, affecting hospitals, emergency services and airlines worldwide.
Microsoft plans to roll out the Quick Machine Recovery feature to the Windows 11 Insider Program in early 2025.
