    Latest security update has broken my laptop


    I had a notification that a security update had to be applied to Windows 10 so I did so and my usb keyboard and mouse no longer work. The updates were KB4532693 and security update KB4538674. I uninstalled the first update which didn't change anything but was then unable to uninstall the security update, I just get that chime when I click on it that means 'no'. I then tried system restore but that didn't work either, and when I tried to reverse that it said there was some unexplained error and I now have no restore points. What the hell am I supposed to do?

    :)

    I would like suggestions and look in local stores. I dont wanna buy a laptop from someone online. Sorry. But could be a good idea if you asked him about the performance on older games. Gonna make a list ofall laptops people suggest me.

    Remove the screen for space purpose here its small desk and if the screen is opened it will hide my 22 inches lcd
