Windows crashes with Security Update KB4284826 and TestComplete
Hi all
After updating our System with the Monthly Security Rollup KB4284826 I encounter problems with TestComplete.
TestComplete works with Network set to "Public network".
When I switch to "Work network" Windows reboots immediately (not even a Blue Screen appears).
After some research I found out that it has something to do with the licensing service embedded in TestComplete (Sentinel LDF License Manager). The combination of TestComplete and KB4284826 doesn't work properly.
If I either remove the Windows Update (KB4284826) or TestComplete, the system runs as expected.
I found the following article: https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/general-info/configuring/windows-specifics.html
I run TestComplete on a Windows 7 Embedded Standard 32bit box. So it seems that this is a known issue.
Updating the network driver didn't solve the problem.
Uninstalling the Windows Security Updates is no (long term) solution for me.
Are there any updates planned for TestComplete or Sentinel LDK License Manager addressing this issue?
