I didn't know about the "EARLY ACCESS" options, but in any case, I have 
neither checked.  Thanks for pointing that out.

I'm just going to chalk this up to a fluke in some maintenance mismatch 
until my reboot.  It hasn't happened again since I initiated the 
shutdown/restart and found there was some Windows maintenance that 
needed to be applied on my PC.

Thanks for the dialog, and I learned about the Early Access option, not 
that I intend to use it.
