By MYBRANDBOOK
In recently times Microsoft is having issue with its Windows 10 updates like performance issues, battery issues and software problems. The last update which came out in March has a bug which can do the worst thing possible for those working from home at this point. The bug can stop a laptop or PC to access internet access.
As Microsoft puts it, “Devices using a manual or auto-configured proxy, especially with a virtual private network (VPN), might show limited or no internet connection status in the Network Connectivity Status Indicator (NCSI) in the notification area. This might happen when connected or disconnected to a VPN or after changing state between the two. Devices with this issue might also have issues reaching the internet using applications that use WinHTTP or WinInet. Examples of apps that might be affected on devices in this state are as follows - Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Office, Office 365, Outlook, Internet Explorer 11, and some version of Microsoft Edge.”
The bug in the update can slow down apps from accessing the internet or can prevent them from accessing the internet entirely.
If laptop/PC is running on Windows 10 version 1909, 1903, 1809, 1803, 1709 or Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019 - one might face issues after the update.
Microsoft says that they are “working on a resolution and are targeting a Microsoft Catalog only release of an out-of-band update to resolve this issue by early April”. In the meantime, they suggest users to restart Windows 10 laptop/PC and hope that solves the problem.
While user cannot turn off updates on Windows machine, what one can hold off on updating it for the time being.
