Last night,  3/6/2021,  i received the push notification of a new Microsoft Update for my Windows 10 desktop.   The notification stated to restart my pc to install the update.

NO BIG DEAL i thought.

Wrong.

I did a RESTART,  and what Microsoft called an UPDATE actually  TOOK AN HOUR TO INSTALL .............?

After the INSTALL,  back at the Desktop Screen,  i was greeted with a message staing "WELCOME TO YOUR NEW WINDOWS OS".... ??????

So,  apparently the UPDATE was to install a whole new version of the Windows 10 OS...........

Nice of Microsoft to let me know.

Then i hit the problem.

I went to check my email via Microsoft Windows Live Mail (essential 2012) and this is what happens:

---  Emails DO DOWNLOAD on all of my accounts,  AOL, AT&T, and GMAIL...    (but download only)

---  By "DOWNLOAD ONLY"  i mean that NONE OF THE NEW EMAILS CAN ACTUALLY BE READ......

---  All new emails state "MESSAGE COULD NOT BE DISPLAYED"   "MESSAGE COULD NOT BE WRITTEN TO DISK"
