Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand

My browser forgot how to talk to servers? :) After the struggling with the typing issue yesterday, today I got a new one. Some https website doesn't come in. Not all, Google for example works but mxhomepro.com from URC does not. DNS flush, deleting cookies, re-registering some dll... Still nothing. Running Antimallware found some registry issues, quarantine them. Restart... And all good. Still don't know what was that, maybe some commands yesterday, what I run in Terminal and PowerShell? Misery...

Can't type into Cortana and Search in Windows 10

I found that the keyboard did not work for any Windows 10 Modern Apps, just for the traditional desktop apps. 
As a temporary solution you can run ctfmon.exe from Command Prompt (Admin) but it works only till the next reboot.
For a more permanent fix:
  1. Open Task Scheduler
  2. Go to Microsoft > Windows > TextServicesFramework
  3. On MsCtfMonitor, do a right-click and enable the task
  4. Restart your machine
That's it. All the search boxes and other entry boxes should work again.
If the task MsCtfMonitor is missing from the list of tasks, you can import it with the .XML file.
