A Windows 10 May 2019 Update release did not cause significant issues, unlike last year's version. However, it seems fate the company from Redmond. The recently released update KB4512941 has proven to be quite problematic for users.
Firstly, it was causing high CPU usage on PCs using the Cortana voice assistant, specifically the SearchUI.exe process. One of the CPU cores was completely occupied, leading to performance drops. Secondly, the update caused color changes in screenshots. When trying to take a screenshot, it came out orange or reddish regardless of program settings or methods. Many users have complained about this online, with reports indicating that Lenovo devices are particularly affected. Interestingly, the cursor color is not impacted.
It is believed that the culprit may be the Lenovo Vantage application or some specific drivers. However, there has been no precise answer from the software giant yet. Clearly, the company is investigating the issue and trying to reproduce it.
It is worth noting that the cumulative update KB4512941 is classified by Microsoft as 'optional', so it can be safely postponed or uninstalled manually if already installed. However, this update also resolves some issues with Windows Sandbox and the Black Screen. But whether it's worth tolerating the 'color of revolution' on the screen is up to each user.
Overall, the situation is typical for Microsoft — inadequate testing yields its fruits. Unfortunately, most Windows 10 users end up acting as beta testers, and they are doing so at their own expense.
