2014-12-10T16:51:31+00:00 This Update also causes the Windows ((Troubleshoot Problems Function)) not to work. Removing this update and rebooting will resolve this issue, the other updates 12-10-14 works.

To all other readers: In the interests of balanced debate (this is after all a discussion) and FWIW, installing Microsoft Updates has never slowed down my PC. Sure, on rare occasions an update has caused problems until a resolution is forthcoming (not this occasion though). However, all in all, I would rather be fully patched and take the risk of (temporarily) introducing a bug rather than become increasingly vulnerable to attack as each successive update is ignored. I will be ignoring Arnold Bath's advice rather than Microsoft Updates.
