Too helpful. More like "Failed with error 0xC0000005".

That's a real error Windows 11 gave me this week. I know, never install a Windows version less than two years old. It's been so long I forgot.

As if any Windows or in general Microsoft product gives useful error messages.

Hex error codes, or generic "Something went wrong" errors are the norm at Microsoft.

Not quite as bad, but when I tried out a car in 2008 with Ford/Microsoft's SYNC system (voice interface), there were cases where pressing an unconfigured button would disable the sound system until you restarted the engine. See number 8:

Also, whenever the power goes out, I always express thanks that the toilets still work, and they didn't introduce some npm-style pointless dependency.
