I lost Edge! on one of my 4 PC's why? after the big update if I open Edge I get a blank page then it crashes, now I know how to reinstall but I get as far as Delete, and then I get need admin approval, so I click skip then I get as far as it telling me another program is open in Edge, have no idea what that could be except for IE which I have to use now, or could it be windows classic 8 which I also have running? I can uninstall classic 8 but do not want to get rid of IE may need it? anyone any idea's?
I have read where this happened to a lot of folks, maybe windows needs to come up with and update fix?
Which update have you installed? Is it 1803/17134.83? Which is the latest version/OS build for Win 10. Its the June 5, 2018—KB4338548 (OS Build 17134.83) but, it doesn't matter what update you have done. Do the following:
First, do a system restore, this option takes your PC back to an earlier point in time, called a system restore point. Restore points are generated when you install a new app, driver, or Windows update, and when you
create a restore point manually. Restoring won’t affect your personal files, but it will remove apps, drivers, and updates installed after the restore point was made.
Restore from a system restore point
- Select the Start button, type control panel and then choose it from the list of results.
- Search Control Panel for Recovery.
- Select Recovery > Open System Restore > Next.
- Choose the restore point related to the problematic app, driver, or update, and then select Next > Finish.
Note
If you’re not seeing any restore points, it might be because system protection isn’t turned on. To check, go to the
Control Panel, search for
Recovery, and then select
Recovery >
Configure System Restore >
Configure and make sure
Turn on system protection is selected.
After you have 'Restore from a system restore point' then go to
https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/help/4338548/june-5-2018-kb4338548-os-build-17134-83 and download the latest 'June 5, 2018—KB4338548 (OS Build 17134.83)' update manually. Its reference and link is here 'To get the standalone package for this update, go to the
Microsoft Update Catalog website' and then download and install the appropriate updates which are either '2018-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1803 for x64-based Systems (KB4338548)' or '2018-06 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1803 for x86-based Systems (KB4338548)' as this might be your MS Edge problem. Hope this helps.
