Solidworks unusable after Windows creator update

Hello

Twice, following the Windows 10 64bit update on my computer with solidworks 2017 PRO SP3.0 installed, the solidworks software no longer launches.

On two occasions, a restoration of the previous version allowed me to reuse solidworks. 

I dread the day when the update will be forced and it will not be possible to go back.

Have you identified this bug? Is there a solution to have the latest Windows update with Solidworks?

Thank you

Apart from waiting for SP4 which should theoretically be available... (cf. http://www.lynkoa.com/forum/import-export-formats-neutres/mise-%C3%A0-jour-solidworks-2017).

The fact that it is "late" indicates, in my opinion, big problems, and I wouldn't be surprised if these Windows updates are not unrelated to them.

Small correction, the SP4 seems to be available since 01/08 in the UK but not in FR (the site doesn't offer it to me), although the release note exists:
