Windows 11 and Copilot updates cause conflicts with apps

Wallpaper Engine is one of the most popular third-party apps that offers millions of wallpapers to users. However, it seems that a recent Windows 11 update has caused the app to crash.

Windows 11 and Copilot updates cause conflicts with Wallpaper Engine app

Last week, Microsoft released the Moment 4 update for Windows 11 with new features and Windows Copilot, a generative artificial intelligence (AI) assistant powered by Bing AI. Initial speculation suggests that Windows Copilot may be the culprit for Wallpaper Engine's performance issues.

Back in July, when Microsoft was testing the Moment 4 update, the Wallpaper Engine development team confirmed that they had conversations around the update and issues reported by Windows Insiders, according to Neowin.

After discussions, Microsoft has removed the HDR (high dynamic range) wallpaper feature and will overhaul the underlying system to maintain compatibility with wallpaper apps like Wallpaper Engine in the future.

The Wallpaper Engine team said they have received similar reports from users on the feedback center. They themselves had to reinstall Wallpaper Engine and disable Windows Copilot after the Moment 4 update was installed on their systems. It seems that Microsoft has not completely resolved this issue before releasing the Moment 4 update to users.

Users can disable Windows Copilot if it causes errors. A recent European law has prevented Microsoft from deploying Copilot to users in the European Union (EU) due to concerns about personal data security.
