rider Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 If its a windows PC just do a system restore. Easy and painless unless you have an infection that can disable access to or delete old restore points. There are plenty of videos on how to do that if you haven't done a restore before.

Dnk Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 Windows 8 I've not long done driver updates and had critical windows update according to the log so wondering how far back to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Just go back to the last good working state. If that was yesterday then the newest restore point that predates that should restore things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rider Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Good to read that it worked out for you. Just reinstall the updates and if all runs well then you are good to go. If you find the problem crops up again then you can restore again and then delve into the update options so the PC will notify you which updates are available rather than automatically downloading and installing them. You could then see whats being updated and install them one at a time to zone into the problem update. An example is that I find sound driver updates (non Microsoft) can cause me issues on some PCs so I have all those on install on demand rather than auto update.

Dnk Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 Looks like doing the restore has worked well, the faults are fixed and my pc seems to be much quicker unless that's my imagination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
