In late February, Microsoft announced a Windows 11 update that would includethe AI-powered Bing search right in the taskbar. Now, a mandatory security update installed on April 11 is reportedly causing lagginess and bugs in some of the software's fundamental features.

It's unclear whether the new Bing taskbar is related to the issues, but users are frustrated that Windows released such a buggy update. "So many bugs and inconsistencies left to fix, and they feel the best thing to do is add an advertisement telling you to switch to a Microsoft account," said one Redditorreferring to a new ad feature in the Start menu promoting Microsoft account and One Drive upgrades.

The implication is that Microsoft may be a little distracted by launching new features when it should be focusing on making sure its operating system is running properly. Despite a growing number of users pointing out bugs, the release health dashboard — part of the Microsoft website that monitors releases for things like bugs and whether they’ve been resolved — hasn't updated any known issues related to the April 11 update. The last known issue on the dashboard is from March 28. (Updated on 4/4/2023: A Microsoft representative told Mashable the company is "aware and looking into these issues").
