In the recent updates, a significant issue has arisen where multiple programs unexpectedly open their help pages, causing interruptions in functionality until the help window is closed. This sometimes results in delays lasting up to 10 minutes, prompting me to take a break and brew a cup of coffee while waiting for the help program to cease its persistent opening and closing cycles.

In response, I have taken the step to disable updates and have discarded the last two updates in the hope that this action may resolve the problem, although only time will tell. The situation became so untenable that I had to uninstall Office and opt for Apache Open Office as a replacement, only to encounter similar help window issues.

I will keep you updated on whether this adjustment proves effective in addressing the persistent problem.
