    I keep deleting unworkable Windows Update and Windows keeps installing it!


    Windows Update results in a black screen with cursor with no desktop or controls to repair, Ctrl.Alt,Delete+Shift.Restart repair tools will not work due to not accepting CORRECT password. I have tried ALL of the suggestions in the forums that list: 1 Black screen with cursor, 2 Personalized Settings Not Responding AND Microsoft Account Password Not Recognized. All to no avail - I manage seven Windows computers 5 are Win 10 and they update without this behavior. THIS is the ONLY standard no hacks HP Retail Machine loaded with Intuit software for financial duties - absolutely MUST work. I must keep these updates OFF.


    Behaviors:

    a the uninterruptable update takes a really long time 24-48 hours hanging at 89% for most of the time.

    b reboots to limited control I have are likewise lagging - long delays from selects, clicks and enter commands.

    i.e. commands to bring up Task Manager IF I can get it take up to two hours to appear on screen.

    C windows installer folder - Delete?

    He can do symbolic link redirection and move the files in it to a different location. *Wink I keep deleting unworkable Windows Update and Windows keeps installing it! ;)
    Better try it out in a virtual of first. Just a suggestion.

    Like:
    First move everything in c:\windows\installer to d:\installercache
    Then delete c:\windows\installer folder
    Then type this in command mode as admin
    mklink /d c:\windows\installer d:\installercache

    Removing those installer files is a bad idea. it might prevent you from updating or uninstalling apps.
