Windows 10: Windows Update of 9/27/2019 Breaks My internet

Windows updated.

Every time it does, something breaks. The latest thing is my access to gmail and godaddy, both of which I need for work and personal purposes.


Nothing fixed it - clearing cache/cookies, reinstalling browsers (I tried all three: edge, chrome, firefox), turning off all extensions, resetting internet, messing with network settings, turning antivirus off and on..


Then I went back to an earlier version of windows, and lo - my gmail works again.


Now Update nags. I assume I will lose access to everything again. Is there no fix to this?


I try to avoid updating until the last minute. A few months ago, the update ate my network adapter and I had to nuke the computer to get internet back.


I am at my wits end. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Spoiler Office 2019
Last year at Ignite, we announced Office 2019 – the next perpetual version of Office that includes apps (including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, and Skype for Business) and servers (including Exchange, SharePoint, and Skype for Business). Today we’re pleased to share the following updates:

• Office 2019 will ship in H2 of 2018. Previews of the new apps and servers will start shipping in the second quarter of 2018.
• Office 2019 apps will be supported on:
  • Any supported Windows 10 SAC release
  • Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2018
  • The next LTSC release of Windows Server
• The Office 2019 client apps will be released with Click-to-Run installation technology only. We will not provide MSI as a deployment methodology for Office 2019 clients. We will continue to provide MSI for Office Server products.

 

Windows Internet Explorer 9 Released

Microsoft released Internet Explorer 9, in its stable RTM form, nearly an year after it first released "Platform Previews", followed by Betas and Release Candidates. With its latest release, Microsoft's still popular web-browser underwent a major overhaul in terms of features and browser-engine. The new browser is backed by a faster Javascript engine, a faster rendering engine that makes use of GPU hardware acceleration for drawing, and redesigned user interface elements that make day to day web browsing experience snappier.

With Internet Explorer 9, Microsoft also took a bold step in not supporting Windows XP, which still holds a large chunk of the operating system market share, the new browser only supports Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows 2008/2008-R2 series operating systems. The user interface is far more minimalistic, uses simple icons, the status and menu bars are hidden by default, with tooltips doing the job of a status bar, and the browser continues to support a large number of ActiveX components. The browser also underwent a security overhaul. For 64-bit versions of Windows, the installer also packs a 64-bit version of the browser. Oracle already has a stable 64-bit Java ActiveX plugin, while Adobe Labs has a beta 64-bit Flash player for Windows, two big steps in porting the web-browser to x86-64.

9/27/2016 Broke everything

372.90 was released on the 20th but yes,that's where I'm at. It's in the video

You suggested that adapter as the final step in a fix. Not the first step of trouble shooting.

Your list is odd since step 3 effectively deletes step 2.

It undone everything I'd spent an hour fixing. lol
