  1. Windows 11 suddenly unusable on my laptop after update


    I have an ASUS Q525UA laptop, and I installed Windows 11 as suggested back in October. The computer has been running okay since then, but about two weeks ago, I got a windows update, and now windows won't even load. I get to the Hello screen and can put in my pin, but after that, Explorer never loads, and Task manager shows that "System" and "Antimalware Service Executable" are switching off using 100% of the "Disk" and windows never loads. I've let it set for hours, but it never finishes loading and eventually goes partially to sleep insomuch that I have to press and hold the power button to

    Windows Update suddenly hangs?

    Windows Update is suddenly hanging for some reason... I went and downloaded and installed the first bunch of updates, restarted when asked, and now when I go back to windows update I just get the window with a white box forever. Reboot and it still does it. This happens to be on my main machine, running windows 7.

    I've also noticed when I reboot it says configuring windows update, step 3 of 3, 47%. Maybe it somehow skipped something and is screwed forever?

    Internet Explorer 11; Windows 10....Stopped Working

    IE11; Windows 10. For the past 2 weeks when I open IE11 I get Internet Explorer has Stopped working POPUP message rendering IE 11 unusable.

    I have followed suggested Fixes by "Resetting" IE11; Use Software Rendering...is NOT checked. I have tried to use "System Restore" and go back to a Restore Point prior to 2 weeks but, I get unable to restore to xx/xx/xxxx because the process cannot file iexplorer.exe.

    I have tried several Restore Points...get this same result.

    I cannot fine the Internet 11 Install Update to delete it as it is not in the list History\Installed Updates.

    Surely there must be away to fix IE 11...I have run out of things to do...suggestions with steps will be appreciated.
