Thanks for sharing. AskVG is often useful for quick roundups, but for “known issues” it’s best to treat third‑party lists as secondary and confirm against Microsoft’s own tracking, because the official status (safeguard holds, mitigation availability, KB numbers, and whether something is actually fixed) can change quickly.

How to verify and track these issues reliably
  • Check Windows Release Health for Windows 11, where Microsoft posts confirmed known issues, mitigations, and “resolved” status (often tied to a specific KB).
  • If an issue is update-related, cross-check the exact KB number in the Microsoft Support article for that update (LCU/SSU), because the workaround usually depends on the KB and build number.
  • If you manage multiple PCs, consider staged rollout (test group first) and ensure you have current backups before feature updates.

Practical safety steps before/after installing 25H2
  • Install updates via Windows Update (or official enterprise tools like Intune/WSUS) rather than manually applying packages from shared folders unless you specifically need to.
  • Create a restore point and/or image backup before feature updates, especially if you rely on BitLocker, smart cards, IIS, WinRE recovery, or cloud-backed storage workflows.
  • If you hit one of the listed symptoms, avoid “tweaks” or registry cleaners; instead, identify the exact Windows build + KB and follow the Microsoft mitigation/workaround for that issue.

About the “Recycle Bin internal filename” note
If Microsoft has marked it resolved for 25H2, the reliable way to confirm is to see which cumulative update/build contains the fix in Release Health / KB documentation rather than relying on a summary line from a third-party post.
