  1. Cannot uninstall KB4592438


    Hello there!


    I have been having many problems with my computer recently slowness, crashes, freezing and have narrowed it down to this update I think. However, I cannot uninstall this for the life of me! It was just like someone clicked their fingers, one day it was fine, nice and fast as usual and running great then all of a sudden it got so very slow! I have scanned for viruses multiple times, checked my program startup list, uninstalled programs, made sure I was up to date, trimmed my SSD's, updated drivers....


    So I thought I'd just uninstall the December 2020 updates as that is the last thing I can think of to do now. However when I am in control pannel, it has no option to 'uninstall'. It seemed to have installed these three updates on 8/12/2020 KB4593175, KB4592438 and KB4532830. I can also see that on the 1/12/2020 it also installed KB4586876.


    I cannot unsinall ANY of the updates installed on the 8/12/2020 KB4593175, KB4592438 and KB4532830 But I can uninstall KB4586876 and thats it.

    I don't want to do a system restore really as these were installed 18 days and 11 days ago and I don't want to have to go back on myself and re-do everything that I have done. I also would rather not reinstall the OS if possible.


    I have so far tried to uninstall thsese updates Mainly want KB4586876 gone as there are reports this one is giving issues like what I have experienced by going into Control Pannel and trying to uninstall No option to uninstall there, using Command Prompt Gives me an error saying that it is critical for the OS, booting into adanced startup and selecting 'Uninstall latest quality update', which will give me an error saying that it had a problem and could not uninstall, tried KB4586876 and it just came back after restart. I haven't tried safe mode just yet but I will give that a go too.


    Thanks for reading, and any suggestions will be great. I may just have to wait until January for fix... It would be ideal to get this fixed for over Christmas so I can properly use the computer....


    Thanks again!

    :)

    Taskbar bug: switching to another window -will not appear at the front


    Follow either of these steps to fix the issue with the Active window hiding behind.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to disable window by hovering over it with the mouse and check if it helps. To do so I suggest you to try the below given steps and check if it helps:

    1. Press Windows key + X key and click on Control Panel.
    2. Select or click Ease of Access.
    3. Click or tap onEase of Access Centre.
    4. Click on Make the Mouse Easier to Use was uncheck Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse.
    5. Check if issue is resolved.
    Method 2:
    I would suggest you to completely uninstall the touchpad driver and reinstall it. Kindly follow the below given steps.

    1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
    2. In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
    3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
    4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
    5. In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes” option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.
