I have Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron 530 and Windows 10 on a Dell XPS 8920. The KB4038788 update ran smoothly on both machines, but had the undesirable effect of adding "Updates to Internet Explorer 11’s navigation bar with search box". This not only annoyed me, but several others that I found through online searches.

I dumped and hid KB4038788 on the Inspiron 530, but kept it (temporarily) on the XPS 8920 (where I am writing this reply) I may still dump the update. Internet Explorer crashed several times while I was trying to post this reply.

If Microsoft wants to add 'features' to long-established programs, then they should allow those of us who annoyed by these changes to revert back to the formats that we know and love.

Just right-click on the file tab top left and uncheck "show tabs on a separate row".

I am crossing my fingers and hoping it stays that way, especially with the upcoming Redstone 3 which will knock at our doors very soon. :)

Have you tried to troubleshoot Updates. Or better yet, totally uninstall the update and see what gives. I can call myself lucky, because I don't have any of the issues I am seeing in this thread

I tried everything I could think of, well except for uninstalling the update and reinstalling it. I was just getting ready to do just that when I fixed the issue. Strangely enough the way I was able to fix it was by going into my Asus router and changing my DNS servers to google DNS

Very good to know the way you happened to fix the issue without uninstalling the update. Honestly, I didn't know about that one (changing DNS servers in your router to Google's ones). I am glad you got it sorted out

Yep simply set them to:
DNS server 1 - 8.8.8.8
DNS server 2 - 8.8.4.4

Thanks for the tip. I will keep it for future reference. At any rate, for now, as mentioned already, I am probably among the lucky ones since I don't have any issue with my PC. Moreover, my settings are already with Open DNS:

Primary DNS: 208.67.222.222
Secondary DNS: 208.67.220.220
