Windows 10: Computer is literally a disaster after an update

So a while back my computer updated for an official Windows update, Since then my computer has just been downright broken.


It started out with a small error that would happen when I opened applications like Steam, nothing big, just a quick pop-up and everything was fine, nothing would happen it would just appear and be gone very quickly.


Then games started to crash and come up with an error that my graphics card wasn't connected.

I was very confused by this and attempted to update but by this point I literally couldn't download anything, I couldn't attempt to update my graphics card, I couldn't reinstall it, I couldn't even factory reset my computer; it would go to 3 percent and tell me it couldn't install so it was reverting changes.


At this point I cant use anything if it requires something more demanding than flash.


List of current errors

"The application was unable to start correctly (0xc00000e5)"
"Your PC can't project to another screen. Try reinstalling the driver or using a different video card."
"2018-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1803 for x64-based Systems (KB4338819) - Error 0x8007007e"
"Definition Update for Windows Defender Antivirus - KB2267602 (Definition 1.273.754.0) - Error 0x80240016"
"C:\Users\*****\Desktop The specified path does not exist. Check the path, and then try again."

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.
