On a problem machine, try making a new Outlook Profile. Delete the Outlook Profile (Control Panel), restart and make a new Outlook Profile &nbsp;(Account). Test if this works. <br />
<br />
I am not away of any Windows Update that does this. <br />
<br />
It may be the Anti Virus you are using. Update your AV as well.

Further to the above suggestion, it could also be a corrupt Windows user profile. Try creating a test profile and see if it happens there. If it does not, then the user profile is corrupt and needs to be replaced.<br />
<br />
Instructions for creating a Test User Profile in Windows can be found in an <a href="https://www.experts-exchange.com/articles/31553/Creating-a-Local-Administrator-User-Profile-in-Windows-10.html" rel="ugc">article I wrote here</a>.<br />
<br />
I hope that's helpful.<br />
