According to the MS KB article, that update changes the Windows version
to "OS Build 18362.356", so you already have KB4515384 installed, and
hopefully aren't encountering the severe nasties that it can inflict.

If your mean Cortana going postal chewing up CPU even when you have
Cortana disabled then, yep it hit me! The fix for me was the registry edit.

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Wind ows\CurrentVersion\Search\BingSearchEnabled

I had to temporary switch from 0 to 1 and reboot. I'll switch it back
after they patch this patch...

Except that registry hack isn't working in the reincarnation of
KB4515384. If you were susceptible to the nasties that it inflicted
before, the registry hack to fix one of them doesn't work in the latest
version of the update. From the WindowsCentral article to which I
linked in my prior reply:

"While there's a chance that it is related to the bug on build
18362.329, enabling the "BingSearchEnabled" Registry key won't resolve
the issue."
