Services.msc (resolved now) : In Services.msc, these services had been Automatic or Manual before the Windows Update, but inexplicably were all changed to Disabled by the WU: Realtek Audio Service, Adobe Acrobat Update Service, Dropbox services, my printer’s services, and all Intel services.

Shutdown: Regardless of whether the other user actually is signed in or not or even when no user is signed in at all, when I try to shutdown, I get the message that another user is logged on and may lose data if I shut down.

Startup: Used to take just a few seconds after turning on the PC to see my two sign-in names: one Administrator account and one standard account.

Windows Update often causes problems for my PC, but since the last WU on 10/13/18, my laptop has multiple issues, most of which I have been unable (so far!) to resolve: HP Model 15-BS0XX, Windows 10 64 bit, 16 GB RAM, lots of hard drive space.
