Google Photos users on Pixel, Galaxy, and OnePlus devices report that the drag-to-select multi-photo feature has disappeared, forcing people to tap each photo individually. Some users note it still works on tablets, suggesting a bug rather than an intentional change. Android Authority has reached out to Google for comment and will update as more information becomes available.
Google Search’s time filters are broken worldwide, returning results from random dates instead of the selected timeframe across accounts, devices, and queries. Android Authority notes the issue appears persistent for days, with a workaround to use explicit date operators (e.g., after:YYYY-MM-DD) until Google patches the bug; the problem may be due to the filter’s JavaScript while the underlying search operator remains functional.
Two years after Final Fantasy VII Rebirth's release, a rogue glitched Chocobo still follows players and even appears in cutscenes, a bug Square Enix hasn’t patched. The quirk has circulated on social media and fan forums since 2024, becoming a running joke as the trilogy heads toward Revelation.
Discord says a bug in its safety system briefly banned more than 8,000 accounts for posting grid-like or other benign images; staff cleared the flags, but the automatic lift didn’t happen, and all affected users have since been unbanned.
An optional June 2026 update (KB5095093) fixes a Windows 11 bug where the CapabilityAccessManager.db-wal permissions log file could balloon, freeing up disk space.
A Windows 11 bug in the Capability Access Manager can balloon its database file (CapabilityAccessManager.db-wal) to hundreds of gigabytes, potentially filling drives and slowing the system. It’s not obvious from the usual storage view, so use disk-space tools like TreeSize, WinDirStat, or WizTree (or run a robocopy check) to locate the large file. Microsoft has a fix in the June 2026 optional update KB5095093, with full rollout slated for July Patch Tuesday; install via Windows Update → Advanced options → Optional updates. Do not delete or uninstall the component while the fix is pending.
Microsoft has acknowledged a Windows 11 storage bug where the CapabilityAccessManager.db-wal file can balloon to hundreds of gigabytes, potentially filling the system drive. A fix is included in the July 2026 Patch Tuesday (KB5095093) and starts rolling out July 14. To verify exposure, inspect C:\
Microsoft says the June 2026 security updates introduce a bug where deleting a single item from the Recycle Bin shows the internal $Rxxxxx filename in the confirmation dialog instead of the original filename, while the Recycle Bin display and restoration work correctly. The issue affects all supported Windows client and server editions after the updates, with a fix planned in a future update. A temporary business workaround is available via Microsoft Support.
Microsoft has acknowledged a Recycle Bin glitch introduced by update KB5094126 that affects all supported Windows client and server versions. In the deletion dialog, the Recycle Bin may display the internal filename instead of the readable name, though the actual file and its deletion/restoration aren’t affected. The issue spans Windows 11 (versions 26H1, 25H2, 24H2, 23H2), Windows 10 (22H2), and several Windows Server releases. A permanent fix is in progress and will likely arrive via a future Windows update; timing (next Patch Tuesday vs. out-of-band) remains unclear. Businesses can contact Microsoft Support for a workaround.
Google's Gemini-powered AI search misinterprets the word 'disregard' as an instruction rather than a query, yielding an AI Overview with whitespace that hides results while standard results remain visible below; similar behavior occurs with words like 'ignore' or 'remember' and on mobile. Google says this is a bug in AI Overviews (not tied to the I/O announcements) and a fix will roll out soon.
The Verge reports that Google’s AI Overviews in search are misbehaving for terms like “disregard,” “ignore,” and “skip,” returning chatbot-style responses instead of the usual AI-generated summaries. Examples include “Got it! Let me know if you need help…” and “Message received! I’m here and ready to help,” with Google not commenting on the issue. The outlet treats this as a likely bug, potentially a quirk after Google I/O.
YouTube has raised Premium pricing in the US to $15.99/month for individuals and $26.99 for families, with Premium Lite at $8.99; the changes take effect on June 7, 2026, and are noted in subscriber emails. Separately, reports of 90-second unskippable ads are said to be a UI bug that inflates ad timers; YouTube says there is no 90-second non-skippable format and a fix is rolling out. Free users will still face more ads as the service monetizes content.
A macOS XNU kernel timer wraps after 49 days, causing TCP connection cleanup to fail and effectively halting networking on affected Macs until they are restarted. Most users won’t hit the 49‑day window, but servers and long‑running Mac workflows can, so a restart restores connectivity and is recommended until Apple releases a fix. Photon documented the bug and says Apple is working on a remediation.
NotebookCheck reports aMacs networking bug affecting MacBook, iMac and Mac mini where, after roughly 49 days, a 32‑bit timer overflows and prevents new TCP connections from being established, causing apps and websites to fail; a restart resets the countdown and buys another ~49 days of normal operation.
Nintendo is investigating a bug in the Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream 'Welcome Version' demo that causes a crash when waking the Switch from sleep between 9pm and 10am after clearing the main content; saving data transfer to the full game remains unaffected. Workarounds include closing/reopening the demo, reinstalling, or temporarily setting the clock back. Early impressions of the demo are positive aside from this issue.
