Don’t they check this crap before releasing it?

You are their unpaid beta tester.

The only reason I look at these threads is to make me smile at all that I'm listening. Been using Linux since before Redhat was a thing.

Correction: YOU ARE PAYING MICROSOFT for the privilege of being their beta tester.

Your statement applies more accurately to Linux, where you still get to deal with bugs, but at least the OS is free so you're not out the cost of a Windows license.
