The most common, if not the only message you will see when linking to Microsoft's "solution pages" after using the error reportingfeature
Example: When my PC couldn't play music due to a "missing audio device error" I linked to this message screen.
So I went looking on message boards for similar issue and found one. The person posted about how Microsoft had nothing.
That forum entry was posted two YEARS before.

Me: Oh cool! I can just link to Microsoft's solution page! How convenient....
This problem was caused by Windows. This program was created by Microsoft Corporation. Microsoft Corporation does not currently have a solution for the problem that you reported.
Me: You've got to be kidding. Oh Cool! Windows has a built-in help program....

"You Just Got Microsofted"
(verb)
When a company gets so dominant and cocky that government regulators slam them with antitrust lawsuits, lawsuits, restrictions, or public humiliation — just like Microsoft in the late '90s.

Examples:
“Bro, Nvidia locked AI devs into CUDA again.”
→ “Oh damn… they’re about to get Microsofted.”
“Apple’s gatekeeping USB-C till the EU forced ‘em.”
→ “Classic Microsofting.”

since version 10, it's been one of the most bloated OSes in the world, no wonder it's having such a decline in the market..
and don't get me started about Windows 11 and its oh-so-heavenly requirements, TPM 2, really?
there has been a method of bypassing those requirements, but it's been patched with the new build. (24H2)
this is why i'm telling you guys, MOVE TO LINUX!!
reasons why:
- it has few to no exploits
- it even has a distro dedicated to hacking
- it's fast and smooth
- Debian-based OSes are easy to get used to and to install
and much more.
