Windows 10: Why do virus info pages have broken link years later?

The MS Safety Scanner link is no longer functioning, and the issue was reported six years ago per old forum posts herein. OK, that's one issue. Bigger issue: why do virus info pages still direct users to that broken link? Have a little empathy... a user is freaking out over a virus possibly on their device, and they click on links that don't work after when they visit the MS webpage with info on that virus. Links are below. BTW, "empathy" is not a dirty word or concept.https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?name=Trojan%3AWin32%2FAgentTesla!ml&thr

Settings links broken


Looks like some of the links in Windows Settings are broken (I think they only broke after the Anniversary Update). If anyone knows how to fix this it would be most welcome.

• In Settings>System>About, clicking "Device Manager" at the bottom of the page results in an error:
  
  
• Every link to Device Manager in Settings gives the same error
• System>Display>Advanced Display Settings>Color Management, Color Calibration, ClearType text, and Display adapter properties give an error
• Devices>Mouse and Touchpad>Additional mouse options: error again
• Network & Internet>Change adapter options: error
• Probably many more links are broken, I didn't bother to check.

Seriously, WTF Microsoft. And I'm usually the one who never has any problems with Windows, so this must be serious.

 

W10 can connect to wider internet but cannot access web pages

I have an odd issue with my W10 laptop linked to Sky broadband in the UK via wifi using a Sky router. The effect is that while I can actually access the internet (I can send and receive emails using Outlook and can connect to other machines using TeamViewer) I cannot access any web site (Google, BBC etc). There is no specific error message, merely that the access request timed out and a suggestion that it may be to do with proxy. I have tried the following:

1. Other systems (W10 and ios) can access web sites using the same Sky router (therefore probably not a router problem)
2. I have sent and received emails using Outlook, so the broadband connection is working (probably not a Sky problem)
3. I have tried two different browsers (Firefox and Edge), no connection (not a browser problem)
4. I am using Windows Defender and have:
   1. Made sure that Firefox is in the list of allowed systems in its Firewall, no connection after a reboot
   2. Turned off the Firewall and tried again - no connection

My next step will be to re-install Windows, but has anyone got any other suggestions? Could it be some sort of virus (I have carried out a complete virus check using Defender) So - any suggestions?

 

GPUz Incorrect Info GF117

I've got the GT620M in a Zenbook and the newest version of GPUz has it listed as a 40nm part whereas all other info on the web suggests its 28nm. Can you investigate, W1z?

Thanks
