Post Windows Update, Fences crashes Explorer

December 16, 2017 11:54 AM from

Windows updated and immediately after fences started crashing explorer at random intervals. It almost always does it if you attempt to open the start menu (I use Start10).

I am constantly getting the popup stating "Fences has detected that Explorer was not closed properly. As a precaution, Fences has been temporarily disabled." While this popup is up, the system acts normally. If I close it, Fences reactivates and crashes explorer again.

It seems to be linked to update KB4054517. When I uninstall that update, everything works again.
