You can update:
- Via Windows Update. (if available)
- Or via the Windows 11 Installation Assistant. (the tool will update Windows without affecting your personal files)
Note:
The latest version 24H2 of Windows 11 seems (currently) to be affected by some issues/bugs in certain situations.
You can check the known issues on Microsoft's website: Known issues of Windows 11 24H2.
I recommend waiting a few weeks before updating, to give Microsoft time to fix these known issues.
Here are the details of the identified bad practices:
Software / tools not recommended :
- The optimization software Razer Cortex claims to improve performance.
It modifies Windows settings, "cleans" the registry, deletes files, etc.
Depending on the options used in such software, they can create problems.
For registry cleaning, it is a myth; the registry does not need to be cleaned.
If they have a paid version, their goal is to make you buy it.
They are not actually useful, and you can simply uninstall these programs.
You can watch this video to learn more about best practices.
Modified power plan :
- The "Razer Cortex Power Plan" power plan is a modified.
It works very well by default, there is no real benefit to installing such power plans for the processor.
You can watch this video to learn more about best practices.
What to do about these bad practices? :
- If everything is working fine, no worries!
You can simply uninstall the concerned software and/or set a proper power plan if it has been modified.
Just keep in mind for next time that it's not ideal to use such software.
If you still have issues or if you prefer, you can always reinstall Windows properly via this tutorial.

High temperatures can be a sign of:
- insufficient VRM cooling

Notes:
- Sometimes, the retrieved BIOS version may slightly differ from the one displayed on the manufacturer's website.
Example: With an MSI BIOS, the retrieved version might be '2.B0' while on the website, the version is listed as '7D22v2B'.
- The retrieved BIOS date may also slightly differ by a few days/months from the one displayed on the manufacturer's website.
Example: With an MSI BIOS, the retrieved date is 26/01/2024, while on the website, the date is 07/01/2023.
Here, the date on the website corresponds to the upload date, while the retrieved date is the BIOS creation date.1.H0 (2024-03-11)
Boot mode >Boot modeBoot mode of the computer:
- Legacy (old mode)
- UEFI (recent mode)UEFI
TPM >TPMThe TPM is a component (physical module on the motherboard or emulated by the processor) that allows secure storage of information.
Specifically, it can store encryption keys, certificates, biometric data, etc.
For example, it is used to encrypt storage with BitLocker or unlock the computer with Windows Hello.
Some anti-cheat software for video games can also use it to confirm the integrity of the game and the system.Active
Secure Boot >Secure BootThis is a security option available in the BIOS.
Secure Boot ensures that the computer boots only with a verified operating system.
This setting may be required by some game anti-cheats (Valorant, FIFA).Inactive
Boot duration >Boot durationBoot duration is the time elapsed between pressing the power button and the motherboard returning POST OK (successful hardware check).
This can be useful for identifying a slow boot issue.
(long memory training in DDR5, for example).
A boot duration of around ten seconds is normal.
Note that this period occurs before Windows starts.
Applications that launch at Windows startup do not affect this duration.13s

Fast startup >Fast startupWindows Fast startup allows older computers to boot faster.
Sometimes this mode (enabled by default) can be the source of issues such as LEDs staying on, or crashes at startup with incompatible drivers.Active
Uptime >UptimeUptime is the time elapsed since the last Windows startup.
This information can be useful to determine how long it has been since Windows was last restarted.
Note that if Fast Startup is enabled in Windows settings, shutting down the computer will actually put it into a hibernation state.
Therefore, Windows only fully shuts down during a restart.
(by clicking on restart and not on shutdown)
As a result, you may sometimes observe high uptimes of several days, even if the computer is regularly shut down and turned on.
However, if Fast Startup is disabled, the computer will fully shut down during shutdown, and the uptime will be reset with each startup.6h 29min
VBS >VBSVirtualization-Based Security (VBS) is a security feature in Windows.
Its purpose is to protect certain parts of Windows by isolating them from the rest. It may be enabled by default on compatible Windows 11 installations.
It can also be activated if core integrity in Windows Defender is enabled, when using WSL2, or other virtual machine-related features.
However, this feature may slightly reduce performance when enabled.
This option only protects against certain complex vulnerabilities. It will not protect you from a cryptocurrency miner or password theft, etc.
Microsoft advises gamers, if they wish, to disable this option. (More information)Inactive
Antivirus >AntivirusCurrently active antivirus on your computer.
Ideally, it is better to use something like Windows Defender, which is relatively effective and already integrated by default in Windows, or use a third-party antivirus of your choice.
However, it is advisable to avoid less recommended antiviruses like Avast, Norton, McAfee, Iobit, etc., which are known for collecting your personal data rather than protecting you.Windows Defender
