Microsoft breaks Task Manager in Windows 11, hard

Leave a comment

Let’s take a look at how things are going at Microsoft, whose CEO claimed a few months ago that 30% of their code was generated by AI.

After installing Windows Updates released on or after October 28, 2025 (KB5067036), you might encounter an issue where closing Task Manager using the Close (X) button does not fully terminate the process. When you reopen Task Manager, the previous instance continues running in the background even though no window is visible.

This results in multiple lingering instances of taskmgr.exe, consuming system resources and potentially degrading device performance. Additional instances appear as “Task Manager” in the Processes tab and as “Taskmgr.exe” in the Details tab.

Although the impact is less noticeable if Task Manager is opened and closed a few times, many instances accumulated over time can cause noticeable slowdowns in other applications.

For more details, refer to the Windows Health Dashboard.

Battlefield 6 & its RedSec battle royale will share career & battle pass progression

Leave a comment

This week, Electronic Arts and Battlefield Studios revealed full details about the battle royale segment of Battlefield 6, known as RedSec. This new mode launched as a separate, free-to-play module of Battlefield 6, featuring full cross-progression between the two games.

Cross progression means that most of the progress you make in RedSec will transfer over to Battlefield 6, and vice versa. This allows players to enjoy both modes without the hassle of unlocking the same weapons or attachments twice. Whether you’re advancing in Battlefield 6 or mastering RedSec, your career rank, battle pass rewards, and other unlocks will carry over seamlessly.

Battlefield Studios published a dedicated article that dives deep into the cross progression system. They emphasize that a wide range of items and progress will be shared between Battlefield 6 and RedSec, including:

– **Career Rank**
– **Hardware Unlocks:** Weapons, Gadgets, Throwables, Training Paths
– **Hardware Progression:** Attachments, Vehicle Loadout Items, Camos, Weapon Packages
– **Customization Items:** Soldiers, Soldier Skins, Camos, Charms, Decals, Player Profile Backgrounds, Icons, Dog Tags
– **Badges**
– **Battle Pass Progress**

This interconnected progression system is designed to provide a cohesive and rewarding experience across both Battlefield 6 and RedSec, allowing players to switch between modes without losing their hard-earned progress. Keep an eye out for more updates as both Electronic Arts and Battlefield Studios continue to support and expand these exciting Battlefield experiences.

**Claude’s Technical Usage in India Significantly Higher Than Rest of the World**

*By Dwaipayan Roy | October 11, 2025, 05:29 PM*

Guillaume Princen, Global Head of Start-ups and Head of Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) at Anthropic, has revealed that half of the usage of their AI tool, Claude, in India is dedicated to technical purposes. These tasks include user interface (UI) design, code debugging, and software development. This is notably higher than the global average, where only 30% of Claude’s usage involves such technical applications.

**India: Anthropic’s Second Largest Market**

India, home to the world’s fourth-largest developer community, is Anthropic’s second largest market after the United States. Princen shared that around 33% of all Claude conversations globally take place in India, underscoring the scale and reach of Anthropic’s services in the country.

**Expansion Plans: New Office in Bengaluru**

To further strengthen its presence in India, Anthropic plans to open an office in Bengaluru by the first quarter of 2026. The new office will enable the company to launch key offerings more quickly and effectively in one of its largest markets.

Princen emphasized the importance of a local footprint, stating, “You’ll see more of us because we really want to have a local presence.” He added that Anthropic aims to be closer to its users and will build teams across the board to provide enhanced community support.

With these strategic moves, Anthropic is positioning itself to better serve the rapidly growing Indian tech ecosystem and capitalize on the high demand for AI-driven technical solutions.
