Last week, Microsoft released a new optional patch for Windows 11 called update KB5060829. Since then, users have been reporting that the update is causing problems with the Alt + Tab keyboard shortcut.
According to Windows Latest, the issues don’t just stop at the popular productivity shortcut either. Other issues include mouse cursor lag, screen resolution issues, and difficulties adjusting volume.
KB5060829 is a preview update, which means it’s optional to install and allows you to try out new features and improvements ahead of the general release. However, preview updates can have problems like this, so you shouldn’t blindly install them on mission-critical PCs.
The update is supposed to be rolled out to all users in two weeks, so hopefully Microsoft fixes these issues in time. Until then, you should hold off on installing update KB5060829 to avoid these issues. Meanwhile, if you’re affected, try rolling back the problematic update.
