Issue With Opening Browsers After Windows Update

Update was done on Monday. Since then, we are unable to go to certain websites, we get an ERROR 505 or just a blank, white page while it shows the page is loading, it just never does load. 
I tried to uninstall the update to go back to normal, but Windows now says there are no updates to uninstall. I have gotten an IT guy involved and he tried to solve it as well but he says it must be a bug in the Windows update as everything was fine until the update happened. 

I have tried the following...note that I also restarted the computer after each attempt to fix this issue:

  • Uninstall the updates (cannot uninstall them though)
  • ran my antivirus
  • ran the computer in safe mode
  • cleaned out the cache, browsing history, downloads and cookies
  • uninstalled firefox and google chrome then reinstalled them
  • troubleshoot Windows
  • troubleshoot Microsfot Exchange
  • modify/fix Microsoft Exchange
  • tested internet connection
  • tested that the websites were not down or having issues (they were not)
  • tested the websites on different computers (they are all on Windows 11 - no issues)

    Nothing has worked. 
    Still error 505 or just a blank page.

    the system is a Windows 11
    The other two computers are fine (we did not update them). 
    HELP!
