Another KB5048652 update screwup?
All, chasing solutions.... on 13th Dec 24, WU installed this KB fix for an issues created by an earlier KB update in Oct '24. Since then, my Logitech EX110 wireless mulltimedia keyboard hot keys have ceased to function. Some of these are hard programmed and some are user selectable, and cover various function like volume / mute, calculator, browser, along with programmable F keys that can be set with a secondary action to open progs like word or excel etc. The loss of functionality isnt a show stopper, but it IS inconvenient. I, and Logitech, would like to know WTF its done!! The logitech setpoint software has 3 tabs 1st for mouse, 2nd for keyboard and 3rd for tools. The 2nd tab, keyboard and/or drivers, refuses or is stopped from loading, hence the loss of the hot keys. the rest of the "standard" keyboard, as you can see, works fine. Im currently working with Logitech tech support but so far they're stumped, having gone through all the 'usual' L1 solutions, upgrade the software & switch it off and on etc, was escalated to L2, and hence deleting folders, removing registry entries and deleting specific files DLLs etc, has still brought no resolution. I can see from looking at the system, the keyboard is running off the Win standard keyboard drivers, not the logitch ones it should be, but despite all the above, multiple installs, uninstalls, registry cleans, and even resorting to installing the original V2a that came with the keyboard, then v6.0, then v6.6 and back to the current 6.9 nothing has sorted it. Ive seen several others commenting about issues resulting from this KB 'fix' which from what I can find out, the original issue it 'fixed' has little or nothing to do directly with Win 10. Anyone got any ideas? Frustrated Phil. email address removed for privacy reasonsPHLYERPHILFeb 08, 2025Copper Contributor118Views0likes4CommentsWindows 10 Showing Two Accounts at Login
When I first installed Windows 10 it somehow added my account twice. Since then the computer will not turn off because it thinks the other account is still on. Both accounts are identical. I have to hold the power button down to turn it off. How can I get the extra account off? I've tried everything.JDuttonFeb 08, 2025Copper Contributor20KViews0likes4CommentsWindows Defender Firewall occasionally becoming enabled despite group policy disabling it
Hello, I have some workstations which will occasionally enable the Windows Defender Firewall despite having group policy disable it. This is happening both on Windows 10 1803 and Windows 10 1909. Here's some settings from one workstation in particular that I'm troubleshooting in detail this morning: The group policy is taking effect in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsFirewall\DomainProfile - EnableFirewall = 0 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsFirewall\StandardProfile - EnableFirewall = 0 And I can see the policy in a gpresult: (copy/pasted from a gpresult /h html file) Windows Defender Firewall: Protect all network connections Disabled So as you can see, the firewall is definitely configured to be Disabled. Most of the time, the firewall is indeed disabled and things like RDP work just fine. However sometimes the firewall becomes enabled and the user can't RDP to their PC. I'm guessing when the PC boots up it sometimes ignores the registry setting and the firewall becomes enabled anyways. I've verified that the firewall is running and active/enabled by two different methods: First, a powershell command "Get-NetFirewallProfile -PolicyStore ActiveStore" reports for each of the profiles Domain, Private and Public, that the property "Enabled" is "True". Second, I enabled firewall logging on a workstation using a remote command: netsh advfirewall set allprofiles logging droppedconnections enable Then I checked the log and found my dropped RDP packets to TCP port 3389: Get-Content '\\pcname\c$\windows\system32\LogFiles\Firewall\pfirewall.log' 2020-11-12 <time> DROP TCP <source IP> <destination IP> <source port> 3389 52 S 2774183116 0 64240 - - - RECEIVE If the firewall was disabled as intended then it would not be dropping any packets, contrary to what's shown above. When I reboot the PC, it will act normally and disable the firewall... for a while. The user will report it again in a number of days. This is happening on numerous PCs in the domain and intermittently prevents users from working remotely until someone onsite locates and reboots their workstation. Does anyone have any ideas why the Windows Defender Firewall becomes enabled/active despite group policy being configured to disable it? Is it a bug in the firewall code, resulting in it occasionally ignoring the group policy setting? Thanks!ittechFeb 08, 2025Copper Contributor6.4KViews0likes4Comments- SofiamilllFeb 08, 2025Iron Contributor14Views0likes2Comments

Hi Everyone, In my office, January 6 was the first day back to work from the winter holiday. Multiple "Windows 10 over Citrix" users in our Japan office reported that the Windows Japanese Input Method Editor (IME) was freezing. This freezing does not occur when typing with English keyboard input, but only occurs after switching to Japanese IME. A Windows restart may fix the issue, but the issue returned for some users. Not every user experiences the issue, so it is inconsistent. A similar issue on Windows 8 with the same symptoms had occurred in the past: IME freezes for a while when you input text in Windows - Microsoft Support Has anyone encountered a similar issue recently? Could a recent Windows update have caused this issue?SamsonatorFeb 08, 2025Copper Contributor225Views3likes10Comments
