    strange things after WU update v1809 17763.504 - many old notepad items appeared. Windows 10


    I'd been working on my laptop since 11pm last night (UK - it's 1:07am now). When shutting it down I saw that there had been a WU - Cumulative Update for Windows 10 version 1809 for x64-based Systems. I powered it up again and found the following had happened:


    (1) 40 or so icons had appeared on my desktop

    (2) four Word documents, included my template Word (I'd changed the font & font size four days ago) had been auto-recovered and I had to decide which ones to keep.


    Has this happened to anyone else?

    :)

    I do it like this if I decide to map as folder while browsing the network:

    Step 1: Copy the full network path using CTRL + C.

  3. Windows 10 fails to update


    When you finish testing the Avast suggestion, make sure that you restart your machine.

    Then if the issue persists, please return to the trouble shooting list in post# 89

    I think there are three steps that remain; the WU troubleshooter, reset WU components, and manual WU reset.
