Quote:Microsoft Details Windows Quick Recovery
The PC recovery options that Microsoft provides in Windows 11 have expanded this past year–Reinstall Windows using Windows Update was just added in 24H2, for example–and we’re about to get another one: Windows Quick Recovery, which Microsoft announced at Ignite 2024 in November, is now available for testing, albeit only in the Beta channel for some freaking reason.
Quick Machine Recovery (QMR) is the first Windows product change to come out of the learnings from 2024’s CrowdStrike outage.
“Quick Machine Recovery will enable IT administrators to execute targeted fixes from Windows Update on PCs, even when machines are unable to boot, without needing physical access to the PC,” Microsoft vice president David Weston said during Ignite last November. “This remote recovery will unblock your employees from broad issues much faster than what has been possible in the past.”
Today, the Windows Insider Program revealed that QMR will be available for consumers as well. Indeed, it will be enabled by default, whereas admins in managed environments will be able to control whether its even available to users.
