Windows 10: Unable to start PC following August 8 Update

My laptop froze on me and I was forced to do a hard reboot. PC would not restart and attempted to do an automatic repair. This did not work. Went to advanced options. Most options require an Administrator Password which I have never been asked for before would not take my Microsoft password. Have tried to restart in safe mode with no luck. Suspect these problems have something to do with the August 8 update which I cannot uninstall since I cannot get on to my laptop.

August 2017 updated created problems with Windows Mail AGAIN!!

We appreciate your response and the efforts that you've done. Since the System File Checker tool and resetting the app didn't work, we suggest that you uninstall the update that happened on August 2, 2017. Once done, check the Mail app if it's acting the
same. Simply follow these steps to uninstall an update:

• Click on the Windows icon, then search for Check for updates.
• Under Check for updates, click on Update history.
• Click on Uninstall updates.
• Once done, look for any Security Update for Microsoft Windows and uninstall them.

If the Mail app started to work properly, it will be best if you defer the feature updates until the next patch.

We're looking forward to your feedback.
