Microsoft has now rolled out the Windows 10 'News and Interests' news feed to everyone and enabled it by default on the taskbar, causing many people to seek how to disable it.

Microsoft on Tuesday released another round of security updates for Windows operating system and other supported software, squashing 50 vulnerabilities, including six zero-days that are said to be under active attack. The flaws were identified and resolved in Microsoft Windows,.
"These attacks exploited a chain of Google Chrome and Microsoft Windows zero-day exploits. While we were not able to retrieve the exploit used for remote code execution in the Chrome web browser, we were able to find and analyze an elevation of privilege exploit that was used to escape the sandbox and obtain system privileges," Larin explained. According to Kaspersky, the two Windows flaws were chained to an exploit for a different Chrome vulnerability to plant high-end malware on specific targets running Windows.
Kaspersky security researchers discovered a new threat actor dubbed PuzzleMaker, who has used a chain of Google Chrome and Windows 10 zero-day exploits in highly-targeted attacks against multiple companies worldwide. The zero-day exploit chain deployed in the campaign used a remote code execution vulnerability in the Google Chrome V8 JavaScript engine to access the targeted systems.
As part of the June 2021 Patch Tuesday, Microsoft has released new cumulative updates for all supported version of Windows, including Windows 10 KB5003637 & KB5003635 for the Windows 10 May 2021 Update and Windows 10 October 2020 Update.
