    After the recent cumulative update, starting a game crashes Windows.


    Dear Community and/or Microsoft Support,On May 14th my Windows 11 Pro downloaded the below cumulative update: 2025-05 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 24H2 for x64-based Systems KB5058411On the same day, but before the above update, I was able to play a game on Steam: "Stranded: Alien Dawn".After the Windows cumulative update, the game freezes right after starting it. I can do only two things:-Wait for the game to unfreeze which never happens;-Close the frozen process, which results in freezing Windows. The mouse cursor can be moved, the NumLock key turns on and off, but nothing

    :)

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

    Steam games recent list does not update

    The recently used program list for the Steam computer game client never updates. It says recent but it misses actual recent games that I've played and lists games that I haven't touched for months or years. How can I investigate the reason for this list not updating? It works just fine for other programs on the Start Menu. I tried searching for information but the word "update" in the search string returns results about Steam and Windows updates and not about the recent list updating.
