Windows 10: KB3156421 - Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511

Windows Updates - Hide or Show in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

 

I remember few power cuts from my childhood. But been years (more then 20) I have not seen power cuts anymore! *Smile

 

In my area (northside of Chicago) it is quite common to have power surges and power failures during storms and even lately. seems like Com Ed doesn't maintain anything.

 

Hi there,

Here big problems with the KB3156421 update. Got it downloaded and installed. But during restart it continious deletes the install. Automaticly or manually, no luck at all.

Anybody with a solution?

 

Welcome to the Ten forums Elrosso
Did you try sfc /scannow in command prompt (admin)? Did you try to run Ccleaner to see if something is wrong. You may also wana try to reset WU: https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/kb/971058.
Good luck! If the problem persist you may have to redo a clean install. I was having a similar issue but things are back to normal now.

 

And yes exactly after 1 week Start menu stops working.

 

thanks for the reply gspeck!

 

totally empathise with you on this. Must be a really annoying issue. Windows 10 tends to bite us in all sorts of different ways. Certainly not happy with its unpredictability. I just wonder if it's always happening a week after an update - is there something in task scheduler running after a week that is screwing things up. Can't pretend to suggest what or why but it could be worth scrutinising. Also does a restore point from when it was functional (say a couple of days ago, so post cumulative update but pre start menu going wrong) fix it?

maybe each update restores some kind of default but because of some bugged task introduced somewhere it will always go wrong. I do appreciate looking at all the tasks and pinning it down is a bit like searching for a needle in a haystack
