Windows administrators stung by a faulty Microsoft update in the May Patch Tuesday releases now have fixes for the problem.
Over the weekend, Microsoft released out-of-band updates to correct the failure of Windows 11 computers running versions 22H2/23H2 of the operating system, mainly in virtual environments, to start.
The problem: While installing the May Windows security update (KB5058405) on some of these computers, the OS thinks a crucial file – ACPI.sys – is missing. The Advanced Configuration and Power Interface is a critical Windows system driver that enables Windows to manage hardware resources and power states. Lacking the file, Windows won’t load, and an error message with the code 0xc0000098 pops up listing the missing file.
Microsoft notes there are also reports of this same error occurring with a different file name.
