Microsoft fixes Copilot issue blocking Windows 11 upgrades

Microsoft has lifted a compatibility hold that blocked upgrades to Windows 11 23H2 after resolving an issue that caused desktop icons to move erratically when using Windows Copilot on multi-monitor systems.
On Windows systems with more than one monitor affected by this known issue, the desktop icons will move between displays or jump out of alignment when using Copilot in Windows.
This known issue impacts home users running Windows 10 22H2, Windows 11 22H2, and Windows 11 23H2. It doesn't affect managed devices because Copilot for Windows has yet to roll out on enterprise systems.
Microsoft has now resolved the bug via a server-side change for Windows 11 23H2 devices with updates older than January 9, 2024, and removed the safeguard hold on Wednesday, February 7, making Windows Copilot available on systems with no other compatibility holds.
In January, the company confirmed another known issue causing Sysprep Windows validation 0x80073cf2 errors on Windows 10 22H2 systems.
It's working to fix a bug triggering 0x80070643 errors when installing the KB5034441 security update to patch a BitLocker vulnerability tracked as CVE-2024-20666.
