Five days ago, Microsoft released the April Patch Tuesday (KB5083769) and already users are starting to report more and more issues on Microsoft’s Q&A Learn pages. One of the issues that stands out is that a “death loop” has been reported by several users. It’s not known how many are experiencing this issue, but in addition to the user who posted it, one commenter reported that he is experiencing the same issue, as are three other people at his company.
The user who wrote it (Vagabond Superstar) reported that he tried to install the April Patch Tuesday update, but his computer got stuck in a “death loop” (reboots with blue screens) where the screen displayed a “mosaic of strange pixels” followed by a blue screen saying that Windows needs to be recovered. The user was then given the option to try again, but when they tried, the computer went into a loop that continued to display the message that it was trying to fix the problem while then showing the screens with the pixels mentioned above.
