Windows 10: New update sucks

Can anyone explain to me what in heck is going on with MS?

The most recent update has screwed-up a lot of things in my computer . It's all because of Chrome included. Here's what happened.

1. My wife has not been able to log in to her Facebook. Everytime she tried, it would say her email is not recognized. She's had that email for several years. After trying 2-3 times to log-in, Facebook suspended her account. I requested a review, they said her account was restored and to log-in and when I did, it was an entirely new Facebook. She lost over 5 years worth of friends, contacts, games, and other stuff. Now, she has to try and rebuild everything but that is a problem because she doesn't know how to do it so I'm faced with trying to restore her Facebook for her.

2. I have had three email accounts: my default Gmail, wife's Live mail, and my internet provider's Spectrum email as a back-up. I check all three every morning. This morning there was nothing in the Spectrum email. Couldn't understand that because there's always something there. So, I used Gmail to send an email to my Spectrum acct. Not there. No error message. Don't know where it went. Sent one to Spectrum from Live mail. It went through.

I restored my computer to an earlier version of Windows. Looked for option to undo latest update - wasn't there.

Also, check my attachment snip of this form. Seems like a lot missing at the top. Right or wrong?

I'd sure like to get my computer back to the way it was before the update. Don't think it's possible.

Any ideas?

Intel E5200 Gets Updated, R0 Stepping Coming Up

Intel's Pentium Dual-Core E5200 processor is getting on course for a specifications update. The chip will feature in a new, improved Wolfdale-2M core, spec'd out as the R0 stepping, from its current M0 stepping. The new stepping is intended to add new instructions, power-management features, and bring about changes in the chip-package. A short list of known changes is as follows:

• CPUID changed from 10677 to 1067A
• Power State Indicator (PSI) support with Intel 4 series chipsets
• New instructions - XSAVE and XRSTOR
• New S-spec and MM numbers
• New halide-free chip package

Due to the changed CPUID, users may require BIOS updates to detect the CPU. According to the company, E5200 R0 should be out by April 13.

Intel Gives Core i3 and Core i5 Dual-Core Processors K0 Stepping Update

Intel is giving some existing 32 nm "Clarkdale" based Core i3 and Core i5 processors an update. The processors will transition to the new K0 stepping from the existing C2 stepping. The parts that will be made on the K0 silicon are Core i3 models 530 (new sSPEC: SLBX7), 540 (new sSPEC: SLBTD) and Core i5 models 650 (new sSPEC: SLBTJ), 660/661 (SLBTK/SLBTB), 670 (SLBTL). Newer and upcoming models such as the i3-550, i3-560, i5-665K, and i5-680 are already being built on the K0 stepping die. Motherboards will require a BIOS update to support the new K0 stepping processors.

The K0 stepping change includes the following highlights:

• New S-spec and MM numbers for the converting products
• Extended CPUID will change from 0x00020652 to 0x00020655
• Host RevID will change from 0x12 to 0x18
• K0 stepping package is pin compatible with C2 stepping package
• Adds Processor Context ID (PCID) support

The revised older SKUs that are built on K0 stepping will be market-available by October 16.

 

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
