Windows 10 Update issue

Troytempest

Our HP desktop had a Windows update yesterday and this morning the MS Office apps and  Outlook mail are failing to work.

A bit of googling indicates issues with update KB 5058379 and seems to have various workarounds which look time consuming for a non techie like me.....

Anyone else had issues or found a simple fix - or maybe Microsoft will issue a new update to fix this.

thank you

If you want to try a quick fix, one option is to uninstall the problematic update:

Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update.

Click View update history > Uninstall updates.

Look for KB 5058379, select it, and click Uninstall.

Restart your computer then pause updates until a fix is found

Just followed a thread on a Microsoft Forum that suggests removing Copilot followed by a reboot - seems to have worked.

Worth during even if you don't have a problem with your MS Office apps .....
