Code error corrections

Bug fixes are corrections to software that eliminate errors, glitches, or unintended behavior.

The term appears constantly in software updates and release notes: The latest version includes several bug fixes and security improvements.

A bug fix addresses something that wasn't working as designed, distinguishing it from new features or enhancements.
