    Feb 18 2020 KB update install leads to crash


    OK updated with KB 4532693 + KB4537759 + KB4538674 today.
    Then computer went doolally going to ASUS SSD drive page saying crash / failure imminent. Never happened before.
    Uninstalled KB 4532693 + KB4537759, but now left with KB4538674 as well as KB4528760. Neither of which can be deleted by routine uninstall of manual cmd command. If I switch computer off when the ASUS SSD drive page saying crash / failure imminent occurs and then re-switch on - everything works OK. This has shades of when a previous KB screwed up many people's antivirus about a year ago. I know I ended up removing Avira.
    So anyone else having a problem and if so how do I uninstall the two KB's if neither uninstall or cmd as per How to Uninstall Windows 10 Updates Manually doesn't work.

    W10 pro v1909 build 18363.592
    cheers

    3. Click on View All on the left panel of the screen.

      • net stop msiserver
    • Now rename the SoftwareDistribution and
      Catroot2
      folder. You can do this by typing the following commands in the Command Prompt. Press the “ENTER” key after you type each command.
      • ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
      • ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 Catroot2.old
    • Now, let’s restart the BITS, Cryptographic,
      MSI Installer and the Windows Update Services. Type the following commands in the Command Prompt for this. Press the
      ENTER key after you type each command.
      • net start wuauserv
      • net start cryptSvc

    KB4025339 Fails Install 0x80070564


    Thanks
    I am trying Eagle 51's suggestions now. Windows Update troubleshooter found a bunch of errors and fixed all but one.The update is trying to download KB4025339 again. I'll see what happens. At step one troubleshooter finishes with one error unresolved "Potential Windows Update Database Error Detected-Not Fixed". Windows update stalled at 0%.

    At step 2 same troubleshooter error. The KB finished a new download failed to install.
    Did step 3 KB has downloaded but fails to install.

    If Eagle's suggestion doesn't work I'll try EdTittel's suggestion

    Tried bothe Eagle & Ed 's suggestions - do not work. Anyone else?

    I have noticed that the latest update for my nvidia drivers has failed to update. Wondering about that!
