1376890 2014-06-12 12:33:00 This is why I NEVER do updates unless absolutely necessary! mzee (3324)

1376892 2014-06-13 22:43:00 Does this look like what yours did, Speedy? www.eightforums.com linw (53)
1376893 2014-06-13 23:55:00 The screen / desktop was fine here, the icons appeared on the desktop. But, when I dbl clicked on This PC, the green bar at the top of the window was slow as. And no icons (for the drives etc) appeared in its window.

Same as control panel, when I tried to get into control panel, it was completely blank. For both it did work after 3-4 tries, but most of the time (I tried like 9-10 times) both were completely blank

1376894 2014-06-13 23:58:00 Well I have no idea what caused it. Had to wipe it then reinstall Win8. But now everything is working properly

Probably you had some underlying problem that was exacerbated by the updates.

Or were unfortunate enough to get struck by some very intermittent bug.
