PSA: Windows KB5035853 causing system instability

Post by SpeedCam »

I started noticing a few days ago that my Blue Iris install was getting frozen camera streams and eventually degrading to the point that the Windows instance needed to be reset. "Luckily" this seems to be not an isolated issue so hopefully it will get attention from Microsoft and addressed but for now I've uninstalled KB5035853.

You can clearly see system stability drop off after KB5035853 was installed as I had to keep hard resetting the machine or services were crashing:

Other things I've observed beyond Blue Iris becoming unreliable and ultimately failing:
- remote desktop stops responding or fails with random error codes
- console logon screen stays black
- console logon screen slowly allows logon

I run BI on Win 11 23H2 22631.3296 in a virtual machine running on Proxmox 8.03.

Edit 4/17/2024: Since uninstalling KB5035853 my system was still crashing or Blue Iris was winding up with broken/stuck streams. I'm wondering if a confounding factor was my passthrough of an old NVIDIA Geforce 9800 GT (from 2008!). I've since removed that passthrough from my Proxmox configuration, will see if that helps system reliability return.
