[COPO]

My Laptop was running slow causing grief, after removing this update, it’s back in business.

Don’t forget to install the Windows Update troubleshooter and proactively block KB4556799 to stop it from coming back.

Windows 10 seems to be the COVID19 of computers. Maybe they should call it COMPID10 instead of Windows 10.

Works just fine for me.

You need to perform a restart after removing the update before it will show up in the show/hide utility so you can block it.

Windows 10 forced updates just like vaccines. Want to stop that? go to windows management, click on services, scroll down to windows updates and hit stop, then go to properties and disable. You will need to do this everytime you start your computer, but it works. Have not had one update in 2 years. The puter works great. The reason I do this is one of their crappy updates crashed out computer hard. Was able to recover it but vowed to never have that happen again.

I'm still running 1809 because I don't trust microsoft to not break stuff
I don't appreciate the fact they turned their users into beta testers

We switch from 7 to 10 around thanksgiving. Search function for files works for a day then you have to reboot the box.
Still prefer XP

I never had an issue with Win7 and switched several weeks before support dropped.
