Visual Editor Error on WP 4.9.6

    Since upgrading WordPress to 4.9.6, I can’t use the visual editor. Every time I want to move from Text Editor to Visual Editor, this error message appears in the editor:

    <span data-mce-type = "bookmark" style = "display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class = "mce_SELRES_start"> </ span>

    Through the ‘Health Check’ plugin, I’ve tried disabling all plugins and using default themes, but the above error still happens.

    Then I try to check using Google Chrome DevTools (F12), the following error message appears:

    Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'controlManager' of undefined

    at h.l.bind (tinymce.min.js?ver=4711-20180425:1)

    Until now I haven’t been able to solve this problem. Does anyone have the same problem and how to solve it?

    Let’s test the assumption that the upgrade didn’t properly replace all files. From the Dashboard’s Updates page, click the button to re-apply the 4.9.6 update.

    Hi. Thanks for the response.

    Before I write the thread above, I’ve tried reupdate 4.9.6, but the above problem still happens.

    Try clearing any caches on your server and using a private/incognito session on your browser so there’s no cache or cookies in the way on that side.

    Do this while you have ALL plugins disabled and are using a twentysomething theme.

    I tried a few more steps (including repeating the steps I’ve tried before):

    1. Update all plugins
    2. Update the theme
    3. Clear browser cache
    4. Clear cache
    5. Reload the post editor page with the Ctrl-shift-F5 (Chrome)

    From the five steps above, I don’t know which one works. But the problem of “Visual Editor Error on WP 4.9.6” has been resolved.

    Blame all things on cache! ??

    I am having the same issue.
    Things that i have tried.
    Used this code in wp-config.php
    1.define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false );
    2.Cleared browsers cache.
    3.Tried in incognito mode
    4. Cleared all the website caches from servers to cache plugins everything was cleared.
    5.Re-Installed wordpress installation but no luck ??
    6. Disabled all the plugins
    I tried everything but couldn’t manage to get the visual editor working.
    Error log in console :
