Season 2 premiered on January 11, 2009, and picked up where Season 1 left off: Jason preparing to kill Mike. However, several gunshots suddenly rang out, "killing" Jason. But just moments later, Sam shot Mike. He then read a few errors, one, in particular, references to the classic "Rules for the Toilet". The episode concluded with a Big Daddy from BioShock coming to kill Sam, forcing Sam to jump off the Sears Tower to get away. As a result, he was "dead" again.

For a period of time, Thunderbirds101 stopped making Funny Windows Errors episodes for unknown reasons. Some speculate he got bored of making the series and was done for good. Others believed he might have been just stressed out and needed a break. For whatever reason, it was one month and seventeen days until Episode 2 of Season 2 came out. From then on out he continued to make episodes. Season 2, unlike Season 1, had a structured storyline and antagonists. In this particular season, the Information Robots were the main antagonists. The season ended with what used to be the longest episode yet, clocking in at seven minutes and ten seconds. The episode ended with [[Microsoft Anna]] "The Info Robot Queen" gassing Microsoft Sam. The scene concluded with the classic 24 clocks and another classic profanity line from Microsoft Sam.

It also marked the end of the "Tip of the Day" errors, instead opting for opening skits. Season 25 concluded on April 20th, 2019.

*As of May 2010, a trend was started by [[Thunderbirds101]]: questions that he would ask at the end of every video. All of them are completely random, but only three asked about serious information. The first one was about what people think would happen on December 21, 2012, the second one is about what kind of I-product people would like to invent, and the third one asked people what life would be like without YouTube. This trend was carried over into the [[List of Microsoft Sam Quickies|Microsoft Sam Quickies]]. Comment questions were removed from the series in May 2016.
