After updating to windows 11 version 25h2, my games will not make it past their initial loading screens. Regardless of which launcher i use, my games do not load and I've tried many solutions and nothing has worked.

Hi, exactly the same for me. Windows games via Game Pass work fine, but my Rockstar games launcher hasn't worked since rolling up to 25H2. Was working fine before and then installed 25H2 and hasn't worked since despite uninstalling the launcher and reinstalling.
Same issue

Experiencing the same problems with the Rockstar Games Launcher. I updated to 25H2 very recently, and I believe since then the Launcher has stopped working, giving me the following error: "Failed to connect to the Rockstar Games Library Service"
I've tried just about every troubleshooting trick recommended by Rockstar Games themselves and other players, including a clean reinstall of Windows 11 via bootable USB drive
Hi Dylan, obviously try this at your own risk and you must check in device manager that your onboard Intel GPU is enabled. If so, right click over your Nvidia GPU, left click on disabled and apply. If you have a multi monitor set-up your monitors will switch off (those being driven by the Nvidia GPU) and default to your laptop screen if you have a laptop, or your default monitor if PC setup. Launch Rockstar Launcher that will connect straight away and then immediately enable your Nvidia GPU. Once in the launcher, go to settings and check the option to send the launcher to the system tray. This saves you having to perform the steps more than once per login. It's either an underlying windows bug or Nvidia issue.

Same here. For sure its a Windows issue. Tried everything, nothing worked exept going back a version before the update. Today i updated Windows again hoping the issue was gone but no.

I'm having this same issue. I have a $1700+ PC mainly for playing games and its basically useless now. We need to start a class action against Microsoft for this updates
I know now that is not the regular update from Windows but the security update from early November. If you delete that update it works Not a permanent sollution but its something.

Hello,
I'm not sure which game you're referring to, but have you checked whether it's compatible with Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2?
Also, have you tried reinstalling the game or installing the latest graphics drivers—either from your computer manufacturer or directly from NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel?
Yeah the games are compatible, and I have tried installing the latest graphics driver. I used DDU to remove them then reinstalled and had no luck
