- Microsoft introduces Quick Machine Recovery (QMR) to help revive crashing Windows 11 PCs.
- QMR allows PCs to boot into Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE), connect to the Internet, and download fixes for boot issues.
- Aimed at preventing incidents like the 2024 CrowdStrike outage, which required individual fixes for affected PCs.
- Initially available for Windows 11 PCs in the Canary channel of the Windows Insider program.
- Planned to roll out gradually to Dev, Beta, and Release Preview channels before broader release.
