It looks like fall is a bad time for Windows 10 developers. Otherwise, it is difficult to explain the fact that almost a year ago, a whole bunch of problems appeared in build 1809, and after the re-release. This and with older AMD graphics cards, and with search in Windows Media, and even in iCloud. But the situation seems to be even more interesting this year.
A few days ago, cumulative update KB4515384 was released. It fixed screenshots and excessive CPU usage due to the voice assistant Cortana, but brought even more problems.
As it turns out, the update sound problems. If your computer has third-party sound cards, you may experience reduced audio quality. To fix the problem, it is recommended to change the sound quality to 16 bits, and disable virtual multichannel audio systems. Microsoft already problem, but haven't fixed it yet. Perhaps this will happen before the end of the month. But that is not all.
It turned out that KB4515384 also malfunctions in the Start menu and Windows 10 search engine. Redmond has already about the problem, but there is no comment on the topic yet. It is reported that the "Start" does not work, and the system gives a critical error. And Windows Search displays a blank screen for any search query. But it didn't end there either.
In addition, KB4515384 "» Ethernet and Wi-Fi adapters on some PCs, and reinstalling the drivers does not help. In this case, the panacea can only be uninstalling the update.
Well, for dessert - KB4515384 additionally increases the load on the processor, sometimes it does not allow you to start the Action Center and the classic Microsoft Edge. Also, it can lead to systems when working with external USB devices: with mice, keyboards and other peripherals.
One gets the impression that this cumulative patch contains a maximum of errors, or simply was not tested and was immediately released to the release. It remains to wait for the release of the "patch".
