Microsoft is blocking the Windows 11 24H2 update on computers with some Ubisoft games, like Assassin's Creed, Star Wars Outlaws, and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, after changes in the operating system cause the games to crash,

Star Wars Outlaws finally came to Steam last week. Unfortunately, there’s also an issue with the latest version of Windows that makes it so the sci-fi open-world adventure and other Ubisoft games don’t work.

Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 11 version 24H2 is accidentally killing Ubisoft games such as Star Wars Outlaws, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and more. As reported by VGC, Microsoft updated its support website to reveal it has placed a temporary block on Windows 11 for users with those games installed.

An array of Ubisoft games including Star Wars Outlaws, Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora are broken on some devices running Windows 11 with version update 24H2 installed. As such, Microsoft has blocked the Windows upgrade for some.

The games are experiencing mysterious, persistent crashes on the 24H2 update.
