Windows 10: Is there a way to rolleback a commonly broken windows update to the previous version?

Last night I forgot to shut down my pc and of course the useless Windows 11 updated with another useless update.I need to used the previous version and stop altogether all updates until the incompetents figure out how to have a robust bug free Windows OS.I can’t list all the several blue screen of death types I got after the update, 8 restart, at less 4 bsod per restart, I got memory management, system misuse, driver overflow and many other types of errors.Do not dare to say “reinstall windows” it will get the last update which is messing up my os

:)

 

Latest windows update wont install

I can't look at previous updates as one of the suggestions I had removed the list.

 

Don't delete "Previous version of Windows" before doing Creators Update

On one computer I deleted "Previous version of Windows" before doing the Creators Update, and this slowed down the update process by first doing a maintenance update of the previous version of Windows 10, followed by a re-download of the Creators Update.


Details:

Before doing a major update I do a system backup to an external hard drive. Before doing such a system backup I usually use "Remove temporary files" to get rid of material I don't need to backup. This is done using "Settings | System | Storage | Local
storage | Computer (C | Temporary files". The checkbox for "Previous version of Windows" typically gave a simple way of deleting the Windows.old files that "give you the option to go back to your previous version of Windows".

But before the Creators Update, what is labeled as "Previous version of Windows" seems instead to be the pending update and there is no Windows.old folder despite the computer reporting several gigabytes of "Previous version of Windows".

On one computer I deleted "Previous version of Windows" and the Creators Update failed and Windows Update then installed a maintenance update of the previous version of Windows 10, followed by a re-download of the Creators Update. The Creators Update then
installed without problem.

One the second computer I left "Previous version of Windows" alone and the Creators Update worked first time.

It seems that deleting "Previous version of Windows" actually deletes the pending Creators update.

My experience suggests doing the following:

• Users: don't delete "Previous version of Windows" before doing the Creators Update. It is the Creators Update.
• Microsoft: don't report the pending Creators Update as "Previous version of Windows" and tempt users to delete it.

 

Windows keeps reverting back to previous version.

Hi Josh,

The issue with Windows 10 update reverting back to previous version could be due to corruption in Windows Update component files.

We would like to ask some information to better assist you with your concern:

• Which previous build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
• Did you get any error messages or error codes?

We suggest that you try to run
Windows update troubleshooter and check if it works.

Keep us posted.
