My machine is totally useless after this KB4586781 update. Machine was fine up until Thursday 11/12. Windows Applied patch overnight. Woke up to machine at the recovery screen and has been in a perpetual Attempting Auto Recovery/Diagnosing PC loop since.
None of the recovery tools - Startup repair, uninstall last quality update, restore point worked. System did have a pending.xml file remaining in the c:\windows\winsxs directory in it, and hw diagnostics and chkdsk /r all checked out fine. The last 4 entries
in the WindowsUpdate log included:
Success Content Install Installation Started: Windows has started installing the following update: 2020-11 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 2004 for x64-based Systems (KB4586781)
Success Content Install Installation pending
Success Software Synchronization. Windows Update client detected 1 update
Success Software Synchronization. Windows Update client detected 9 updates
This is brutal. Anyone else seeing any failures like this? Any suggestions (before what looks like the inevitable and totally unacceptable reinstall)?
