Windows 10: Latest update has bricked the OS

I’ve been asked fix an issue for a friend but have found that the last Windows 10 update (KB4577032 and KB4576482) has invalidated all drivers, and corrupted the OS in such a way that I’m unable to rest or recovery it.

I’ve tried: - Repair and then uninstalling the offending update (failed) - System restore (failure) - Troubleshooting the network drivers to gain internet access (failed) - Repairing the Network adapter drivers (failed) - Removing the network adapter drivers and allowing system to auto detect them (failed) - Admin CMD ping of network (failed) - Admin CMD sfc/scannow - corrupted files detected and cannot reset or restart (failure)

Is there any other way to fix this beyond wiping all drives and clean-installing the OS?

Edit: update KB numbers; sorry, new here!
