Windows Explorer Freezes and Flickers when Moving or Scaling

Hi,

The issue re-emerged a few days after I patched the OS. Any additional insight?

My OS build is Windows 10 version 1703 - KB4016871

Thanks!

 

Windows Phone 8.1 - Facebook News Feed issue.

Hard reset is no solution... !!

I had my device hard reset too, but that did not resolve the problem. I think, Microsoft needs to do an emergency patch release for this app to fix all the issues. Test it thoroughly before they make it available for the world to download on the Marketplace!
It will save a lot of agony for all... !!

I hope Microsoft is listening... !!

Thanks.

 

Same here.. just got a defender update.

 

. . .not worried. . .probably never visit that site anyway. . .*Smile

 

Not only will I probably not go to that site, I'll probably never use IE. *Wink

Never have, why would I start now?

Edited: No where on the file list does it have Internet Explorer 11 x64 based version of Windows 10. In fact, I don't see anything about Windows 10, besides the "Applies to" at the bottom.

 

always only use internet explorer on websites you already know, I use it just to open outlook.com and read my email but don't even read news there. Prefer to play with Edge or stay on Chrome.

 

I tried to download that in fact I did but when I went to install it, it said that it did not apply to my system. Maybe because I an using the Insider Build 10502 and that is also why it is not being shown in WU. I will try later maybe.

 

Hi there

Hopefully this might be related to the type of Ransomeware "Rootkit" virus doing the rounds currently - infecting ALL browsers - not just IE11 -- which pops up a note saying you've got malware on your computer -- please ring XXXX to fix -- SCAM DO NOT RING THE NUMBER.

This piece of malware hides so deep that even quite well thought of A/V software like Malwarebytes doesn't detect or clean it -- usually reports system as Cleansed when it's not.

These rootkit type of viruses are VERY DIFFICULT to eradicate or protect against --usually a disk re-format and clean Windows re-install is the only cure.

Eventually defences might be provided against this type of attack - but probably not immediately.

Cheers

I got that update along with the latest cumulative one on the 18th. IE 11 is remaining as my default until Edge gets further developed. I have Chrome but only use it for streaming to my Chromecast and Firefox is just not an option.

Whats the KB number of this update?

 

Being an insider I just use Edge anyway, besides I just use Browsers to surf the net and Edge does a better job than most browsers except that it might not have all the bells and whistles just yet.

 

Just getting this one now: • Cumulative Update for Windows 10 for x64-based Systems (KB3081444).
Is it the one described in this thread?

Edit: Yup, that's it:
