Windows 10: Bad update affecting 2 computers

KB5000802 -On one PC this windows update breaks printing. I uninstall it and it fixes my problem but it reapplies itself and breaks me again. I know I can stop updates for 7 days and I've done that. But then it will reapply again. I tried disabling the windows update service but it turns itself back on, so that won't work.
My other PC blue screens after this update.
What does one do in a case like this since MS is forcing bad updates even after we uninstall them? Both are home edition so I can't us group policy to disable windows update..

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
