Windows 10: Big time problems with KB3016725

While posting my computer locked up. Using W-10.

It installed KB3016725 without any notice.

The result.
1. Unable to go on line. Locked up my router and modem.
Rebooted computer, modem and router.

2. Lost use of my Microsoft wireless mouse. Had to reboot using a PS2 mouse to get the driver to work on the USB 2.0 Dongle wireless mouse.

3. Router and my modem still keep dropping off in Windows 10 but works on the same computer using Windows 7.
Router and modem also works on my other computer using Windows 7

**In Windows 7 you can shut down using the keyboard but in W-10 you can't. You have to use the buttons on the case.

I will go back into W-10 and see what else is bonkers.
Update:

I'm back into using W-10 and obviously the internet is working. I did notice that when booting and getting to the desktop the router and drive activity light were very busy for about 2 minutes. I did nothing until they settled down.

A new but this time BIG problem

I had carried out many soft resets to no avail, however, between sending my first post and receiving your reply I have found out how to HARD reset. Sorted. A bit of a pain having to reset everything again but I guess it was my own fault for leaving it
on.



Thanks for getting back to me anyway but the problem is now not quite so big!

Try another soft reset after a charge. If not a hard reset will bring your device back to manufacturer settings.

Delete excisting partnership from computer and establish a new partnership when reconnecting through active sync.



If all your data is on your pcc it will sync immediatly back to your device.



Hopefully this will work for you

 

Wow thanks for the heads up *Smile
Very weird indeed :/

 

I've performed that update before.. and I have to do it again today.
I'll report if I see any issues.

I just performed that update and no issues on my machine.

My PC fails to boot every time W10 installs this update. It goes into Startup Repair, then fails to diagnose the issue, then I have to go into the recovery settings and uninstall preview updates before I can boot back into W10. I just hid the update manually; I'm not dealing with it anymore.
