Windows 10 bug affecting 800million users lets hackers steal logins – update your PC now ⚠

MICROSOFT is hastily rolling out a security fix after US spies warned of a flaw in Windows 10 that leaves the operating system open to hackers.

If successfully exploited, attackers would have been able to conduct "man-in-the-middle attacks" and decrypt confidential information they intercept on user connections, the company said.

Microsoft typically releases security and other updates once a month and waited until Tuesday to disclose the flaw and the NSA's involvement.Shut down power gridsPoison water supply
