Google Chrome worked on 12 Jun 23 before the KB5027231 mandatory update. After uninstalling and reinstalling, it still won't open. What was in KB5027231 or KB5027119 or KB890830 that caused the change?

    We don't use Malwarebytes large scale in our environment. Having this same problem after the June updates. Uninstall/reinstall appears to resolve it but not really feasible for thousands of users. Any other suggestions or updates to address this issue?
