Workaround for Windows 10 System Freeze [February 2026]

My understanding is that the latest round of Microsoft patches fixed it for Windows 10 but not 11

Makes sense! Hopefully Microsoft can cascade the fix for Windows 11 soon.

Tried it. Still freezes the PC. Win 11

win 11, still having issues. Refunds are needed, i’ll be unsubscribing soon.

Similar setup to me. No idea where the money is going, what are the devs actually doing?

Unfortunately the issue persists with all the latest update and the KB workaround. Without the workaround Zwift freezes on startup. With the workaround Zwift at least loads the connection screen but still freezes when loading the actual world.

Win 11 with all the recent updates, GPU is a 750 Ti.

As other users have written, it is annoying - it’s been quite a while now, when is this going to be fixed?

Hi, FYI:

With KB5086672 (26100,8117) I just tested it with KB Workaround disabled: Runs !!!
At least in the first attempt ..

Win11, old nVidia

Give it a try …
