This incident has been resolved. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we addressed this issue. A detailed root cause analysis will be shared as soon as it is available.

Our investigation into GitHub Actions 4 Core Windows runner failures in public repositories is ongoing.

If you have a failing GitHub Actions run, please retry it and it is likely to succeed.

We're continuing to investigate failures in GitHub Actions 4 Core Windows runners in public repositories.

If you have a failing GitHub Actions run, please retry it and it is likely to succeed.

Rollback has been completed, but we are still seeing failures on about 11% of GitHub Actions runs on 4 Core Windows runners in public repositories.

If your workflow fails to start, try re-running and it is likely to work a second time.

Mitigation for failing GitHub Actions jobs on 4-Core Windows runners is still being mitigated. You should start to see more runs succeeding.
If you do see failing runs, please retry and they might succeed.

We've applied a mitigation to unblock running Actions. A regression occurred for Windows runners in public repositories which caused Actions workflows to fail. A mitigation is in place and customers should expect to see resolution soon.

If you have a failing Actions workflow on a Windows runner, please retry and it is likely to work.

We are investigating reports of impacted performance for some GitHub services.
