- Settings > System > Recovery offers a Windows Update reinstall that keeps apps, files, and settings in place.
- If Windows still boots, problem updates can be removed through Update history; otherwise, they can be uninstalled in the recovery environment.
- Since June 2026, Point-in-time restore has captured system-drive snapshots about every 24 hours, retaining them for up to 72 hours; later changes are lost.
- Quick machine recovery checks online for Microsoft fixes after several failed boots and is enabled by default on unmanaged Windows 11 Home and Pro PCs.

- The free ExplorerPatcher can restore Windows 10’s Start menu in Windows 11, including resizing and a visible app list.
- It replaces Microsoft’s Widgets with a streamlined weather widget, which the author said was recently failing to display data.
- The Windows 10 Ribbon interface improves File Explorer access, but removes Windows 11 features such as tabs.
- Some smaller options apparently do not work in current versions, although the author says the app remains supported.
Right off the bat, being able to restore the Windows 10 Start menu with ExplorerPatcher is an extremely welcome change, and the biggest reason to use this app, in my opinion.— João Carrasqueira, author of the XDA-Developers article on ExplorerPatcher
