Microsoft pulled the June Windows 11 KB5039302 update after finding that it causes some devices to restart repeatedly.
The KB5039302 update is the June preview update released this week, allowing consumers and the enterprise to test new bug fixes and changes before they go live for everyone as part of July's Patch Tuesday.
In a new post to the Windows Message Center, Microsoft says that after installing the KB5039302 update, some systems may reboot repeatedly.
A Windows user also reported on Reddit the bug is affecting their VMware VMs. The company says they have pulled the KB5039302 update to investigate what is causing the restarts, and Windows users will no longer see it offered in Windows Update and Windows Update for Business.
When done, you will be prompted to reboot the computer, and now that the update is uninstalled, you should be able to boot into Windows 11 again.
Windows 11 KB5039302 update released with 9 changes or fixes.
