Not a single soul i know, who uses windows, will read or hear about this issue
Why not just make an update that removes the issue, caused by the previous update?
My mom doesnt read microsoft support site?
I’m a pretty tech literate person and I not only had to go out of my way to have heard this news, but I would need to look up how to even uninstall a specific Windows update. It’s not like there is a super obvious button for it on the updater panel, nor is it something anyone regularly needs to do. Or at least, it wasn’t. I get the feeling this will become normal because Microslop wants to just do things by vibe without even reading the room to know what vibes to bring.
Good job, Microsoft. Making my job not easier. This one’s on you.
They tell people who use POP to use webmail as a workaround. Whoever made that suggestion doesn’t know wtf POP email accounts are or do.
POP3 clients connect, retrieve all messages, store them on the client computer, and finally delete them from the server.
There is no way that one can use web-based email clients and use POP. It is literally incompatible.
You can tell POP to leave a copy on the server, pretty much any client has that as a checkbox right there when you set it up.
You can enable POP access for an email application like the standalone Outlook client, and it’s not a firm requirement to delete emails from the server. If you don’t connect with a client app that is configured to transfer all emails off the server, the webmail interface should work fine.

I have used this kind of setup multiple times.
Right… But I’m unaware of any pop providers that also offer a webmail interact. Hell I haven’t seen anyone use pop since the early 00s. The isps that did offer it required you to use a proper mail client. And if the workaround for outlook is ‘use webmail’ that doesn’t exist…
