Control Flow Guard caused tasks to suspend on launch
I've been tracking down the cause of a really troubling problem that started 5-6 x64 canary releases ago: running some executables would lead to a delay of 20-30 seconds before the application would actually launch. Discovered they were starting but immediately going into a suspended state (viewable in Task Manager) for up to 30 seconds, then they would appear on the screen and function normally. An example is Notepad++. I could repro the issue on demand by launching the app and then terminating it and then executing again a few times in rapid succession. Disabling Control Flow Guard (CFG) in Windows Security, App & Browser, Exploit Protection seems to resolve the issue. Reported in feedback, where there were about two other reports of similar behavior. Anybody else seeing issues with CFG ?Receiving "Something went wrong" Error 30088-27 AND "You're up to date" when updating..
After the update to 15330.20004, when performing an Office Update I get BOTH a dialog that says I'm up to date and simultaneously an error 30088-27 (see attached image). Performed an online repair, then an uninstall and reinstall (not clean). Issue persists. Not hung up on it since it seems I also got the latest update 😉Outlook launching two Internet Explorer processes / Outlook not closing cleanly
Hi. Running the current Office Insider Slow ring release of Office 365. Starting a couple of releases ago, seems that when I launch Outlook it opens and also starts two Internet explorer processes - listed in task manager as "Internet Explorer" and "Internet Explorer (32 bit). Even starting Outlook in 'safe mode' yields the same result - the two IE processes. The only reason I noticed this is that I'm troubleshooting an issue where Outlook doesn't close cleanly on occasion. Even after appearing to close completely, the outlook.exe process remains -- so subsequent attempts to launch Outlook yield nothing more than a "ding" from the OS. I must manually terminate the running outlook.exe process before proceeding. Ideas? I looked at Add-ins, and disabled or removed all but "Microsoft Exchange" and "Microsoft Junk Email Reporting"..
