![]() ![]() The cynic in me says that Microsoft has deliberately started introducing changes that will culminate in them stopping support for Classic ASP and this is their way of forcing change. I don't buy it because minutes before I applied the Windows upgrade my Classic asp app was working in ALL browsers,Īnd just minutes after the upgrade it was failing in ALL browsers. I contacted Microsoft Help Desk and after being handed over through 5 different consultants (I'm bald now from tearing my hear out) and hours of watching them fiddle here and there on my laptop, they couldn't explain it so they just arrogantly ended it allīy saying they've tested their software extensively and are satisfied that it is working and therefore the problem must lie with my application. so its not a database error or connection error.

The problem (for those not wanting to read my thesis below): After implementing the Windows update my Classic ASP site stopped rendering Bootstrap 3 (and 4) style sheets and images. All sites are working except the development site on my laptop running Windows 10 Pro. The site is running in production at a few clients and also on my demo web site which is hosted by my ISP.
