Windows 11 DRM Drama: Microsoft Partially Fixes Blu-Ray Blues!
Windows 11 has been having a rough time with DRM-protected videos, thanks to a troublesome bug. Microsoft claims a “partial” fix is in place, but if your screen’s still black, you might need to hang tight for the full resolution. Remember, patience is a virtue, especially with Digital Rights Management issues!

Hot Take:
Microsoft’s latest drama is like a soap opera for tech nerds: just when you think the plot is resolved, there’s another twist! They’ve managed to “partially” fix a DRM issue affecting Windows 11 users, which is like saying they’ve put a Band-Aid on a sinking ship. But don’t worry, folks—at least we can still watch our cat videos in peace!
Key Points:
- Windows 11 users faced playback issues with DRM-protected content post-August updates.
- Microsoft acknowledged the glitch, leading to black screens and freezing.
- September’s preview update (KB5065789) has ‘partially’ fixed the problem.
- Other pesky glitches included app installation issues and NDI streaming lag.
- Emergency updates also tackled Windows reset and recovery failures.
