In other news, 500 million PCs declined to 'upgrade' to 11.

The password icon being invisible is just funny. Some of the other issues are actually problematic, as they may interfere with some workflows.

However if you go to the December 1. (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/december-1-2025-kb...) the icon is still missing. How hard is that to fix? Aren't they using CoPilot? Just ask it to fix the invisible icon.

Probably not a priority.

They would, but no-one in the development team are able to log into their PCs due to no longer being able to locate the password icon ...
