Windows 10 November Update Reset My Defaults

So I decided to do the November Update. It's big so it took a long time. Well afterwords it restarts the computer and I get a screen similar to the first install screen where it greets you.

Well, I decide to go about my business, and what's this, Edge is now my default browser. Oh and notepad is now my default text editor. This made me worry so I decided to check the privacy settings. All were now enabled. I haven't updated my other computers in the house yet, but this startled me quite a bit.

I thought I would post this here just in case this happens to anyone else and so others check just to make sure they don't suddenly start sending data they do not want to.
