Sluggish performance after update installation

I downloaded and installed the latest updates on my desktop last night and
noticed that the performance was extremely sluggish. Various ap's took
forever to load and performance was terrible. I thought this was an issue
with my desktop but after I installed the updates today on my laptop, I
noticed a similar decrease in performance. System Restore to 10/11 was ran
and message stated that the restore request could not be performed and no
changes were made. Both systems were fine before the installation and this
has never occured with prior updates.

What is the deal with this update? Is there a fix in the works? Is there no
going back?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Regards.

Windows version? Updates installed? Does uninstalling them resolve the
problems?
