Windows 10 updates resemble horror movies. And the latest Windows 10 Update catastrophe is like Jason from the Friday the 13th movie.

According to Windows Latest, the Windows 10 May 2020 Update (also known as Windows 10 v 2004) now displays a warning of an unauthorized Internet connection in the form of a yellow danger triangle that says "You cannot access the Internet." The system is not working. However, this warning is not actually true, as one can still use the web browser, but the glitch is breaking other apps, including Spotify and the Microsoft Store.

The site claims that the affected apps rely on Windows 10's Internet status to reach the servers and are caught by this fake message. And those who remember life back in March know that this is not the only major bug with Windows 10's Internet connection this year.

Microsoft has acknowledged the issue on its own forums and says it is currently "investigating." Hopefully a patch will be applied in a future update.
