It also appears that the software giant quietly shipped yet another update ‘KB4524244’, which is a security patch for some PCs. In addition, Windows 10s’ February security also update broke some PCs and uninstalling the update resolves the problem, according to one user. If it doesn’t work, simply remove the botched update.
