    Jeff,

    I just thought I would share something that happened this evening and most likely open yet another can of worms.

    When I left for prison ministry this evening I neglected to shut my computer down.  When I returned home it was sleeping or hibernating, whatever it has been doing ever since I upgraded from 7 to 10.  I knew the only way to wake it was to shut it down with the power switch so I shut the computer down manually and restarted it.  I has always booted back to exactly the same place that I left it when I have done that.

    This time however, I got a very limited desktop with no wallpaper and none of my usual icons.  I looked around and could not see anything that looked different except for the limited desktop until I looked at the app menu and most of my apps were gone.  More investigating revealed much of what I have done the last 2 weeks is gone and even some of the programming and documents that I migrated from Windows 7.

    When I tried to do a recovery I got a message that said no recovery points had been created and I create recovery points almost everyday.

    Just thought I would share another one of those things that is "sort of" unexplainable.

    d0x360,

    This post is about Windows Update KB4535996 that is breaking a lot of things on people's computers (on a variety of different HW).

    It looks like this post deviated to talking about POST (Power On Self Test).
