Windows 10: remote windows update without pc

Hello, I would like to be able to do a windows 10 update without doing it from my PC. Example click on link at Microsoft and have them do it for me. Reason: Windows Start Button, Cortana frozen/broken. Clicking on my Windows 11 I.E. causes my whole task bar to freeze. I can limp by without start button by doing shut downs by right clicking on sign on screen. I am able to open file explorer, word pad, access to my scanner. I have a desktop Pc and it is not wireless.

Windows 10 Creators Update and Remote Desktop Scaling

I have just installed the Windows 10 Creators Update on my new Surface Book and it makes Remote Desktop sessions to it unusable because of poor DPI handling.

I connect to the Surface Book from my desktop PC which is running at 1920x1200
without Windows Creators Update. This Surface Book is running at 3000x2000
with Windows Creators Update. In this case the content viewed through Remote Desktop on my desktop PC is blurred and unusable.

All current workarounds online do not work i.e.:

- using Remote Connection Manager

- setting the Surface book at a lower resolution

- adding a manifest file to mstsc.exe

I have therefore had to roll back to before Windows Creator update, i.e. remote desktop is running on 1920x1200
without Windows Creators Update and Surface Book running at 3000x2000
without Windows Creators Update. In this case Remote Desktop session is clear and usable.

I understand the Windows 10 Creators Update was intended to resolve DPI issues, however, this seems to have created no ones.

Will Microsoft fix this issue before Windows Creator update is forced upon us all? Or if the both PCs are upgraded to Windows Creator will this be handled?

Unrealistic expectation.

Even if only 1% of the 250 million Windows 1 users requested that service once a year that would be 2.5 million requests a year.

One great thing about Windows 10 is is easy to reinstall yourself.
