Windows update causes application failure
On July 12th 2019 Microsoft sneaked an update on my PC even though I had paused updates for 7 days. The update, KB4509096, a so-called "security update", broke video rendering on my photo/video viewer and editor, Irfanview. Another later update KB4507453 on the 13th may have played a part in it too.
I did a system restore to get rid of the problem and it worked.
I have paused updates to the end of August but MS then forces all updates whether I like it or not.
Is there any way I can stop these ruinous updates altogether that do more damage than good?
