Unable to type in Windows Search or Sticky Notes on Windows 10 machines after upgrade to 18.4

SOLVED

We recently upgraded from Sage 300 CRE version 18.1 to 18.4. After the upgrade, we noticed that our Windows 10 machines no longer allowed us to type in the Windows Search bar (or clicking start and typing), or in Sticky Notes. We did some testing and this is only affecting Windows 10 machines running Sage 300 CRE 18.4 (no issue in Windows 7). The work around we found that resolved it temporarily on these machines was to run ctfmon.exe from C:\Windows\System32, so we have added that as a scheduled task at startup, however, this is not working on all machines. Is this a known issue? Is anyone else experiencing this? If so, is there a permanent fix?
