2021-02-03T16:25:48+00:00 I'm having the same issues after the January 2021 updates. Microsoft should be embarrassed by release such bad updates. It took me a few days of work to stop the blue screens. No my system runs like an old 286 system. Frustrated as hell and thinking of removing Windows completely and install Linux. Microsoft should consider getting out of the operating system game completely if they are going to release junky updates like this and just focus on office automation products.
