    Don't Install the Windows 10 April 2018 Update! Danger


    The Windows 10 April Update is causing more stress for users, with many claiming their PCs were wiped clean after they hit OK on the update prompt.

    Windows message boards were bombarded with complaints after users found that the "restart and install" prompt for the Windows 10 update led to a blank screen with a message saying:

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Desktop is unavailable. If the location is on this PC, make sure the device or drive is connected or the disc is inserted, and then try again. If the location is on a network, make sure you're connected to the network or internet, and then try again. If the location still can't be found, it might have been moved or deleted.
    The screen has no icons and a few users were only able to remedy the problem with the help of another PC, a luxury many do not have access to.

    :)

    How to resolve problems installing the Windows 10 April 2018 Update.

    What should I do if I’m having trouble installing the Windows 10 April 2018 Update? For example, what steps should I try if I’m having any of the following problems:

    • While updating to the latest version, Windows restarts and goes back to the old version.
    • The update to the latest version of Windows gets stuck for hours, so I had to restart and go back to the old version.
    • I thought I installed the latest version of Windows, but now Windows Update says I need to install it again.
    • I tried to update to the latest version, but now I can’t sign into Windows or reach the desktop.
