Microsoft plans to introduce new features and improvements with the upcoming Windows 11 update, named 24H2. However, the company has announced that some computers will be excluded from receiving the update if they have specific customization applications installed, as reported by Deskmodder.
Blocked apps list for Windows 11 24H2
Windows 11 version 24H2 will prevent the installation of new updates on computers with specific restricted applications, such as StartAllBack and ExplorerPatcher, which are known for customizing the system interface.
The complete roster of applications is as follows:
- EaseUS Disk Copy executable file (EaseUS Disk Copy).
- ep_dwm.exe (Explorer Patcher)
- iCloudServices.exe (iCloud for File Explorer)
- RadeonSoftware.exe (software for AMD graphics cards)
- StartAllBackCfg.exe also known as StartAllBack
- Multi-mon + Copilot by Microsoft
- MergeSdb is a product developed by Microsoft.
- Intel IntcOED.sys

- Realtek 8192su Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter
When users attempt to install the most recent Windows Preview version on computers containing these applications, they encounter an error message stating that “this application is not compatible with this device” because of “security concerns or performance issues on Windows”. Microsoft recommends searching for updated app versions to guarantee system compatibility.
Users who utilize these applications to personalize the taskbar, Start menu, and other elements of the operating system must uninstall them from their device to receive the operating system update. Microsoft has not disclosed the reason for this limitation, but it may be linked to potential performance issues triggered by such applications in the system.
What can be anticipated from Windows 11 24H2?
Windows 11 24H2 is anticipated to introduce several new features, with a focus on artificial intelligence capabilities. The upcoming update may include suggestions for actions on files and folders in File Explorer to streamline data management. Moreover, the operating system will feature a “sudo” command akin to Linux for executing administrative functions in the terminal.
There is no official confirmation regarding the release date of version 24H2, but it is probable that it will be launched sometime between September and October, following the pattern of recent Microsoft releases.
