Windows 10: Unable to update from build 18267 to 18298

I am Unable to update from build 18267 to 18298. Windows Update has tried several times. After download, and install, the system crashes after first reboot. Then reverts back to 18267. Below is a copy of the winupdate log from the last attempt. today.

I have been trying for a few days to work this out. I keep getting the blue popup stating this version has expired, and I must update. I click on the more info link and it just sends me to the insider feedback page. That is not very helpful.

Suggestions on a solution?

Build 18267 - Font Display issue is making the build unusable

The Known Issue surrounding Font Display on Build 18267 seems to be more widespread than highlighted.

Upon installation, within 5 minutes the display font begins to flicker, characters drop out, and the display goes haywire. This occurs on UWP/PWA Apps & the Fluent UI of the build (Inc Start, All Apps & Settings). It doesn't occur within File Explorer
or CMD/Powershell.

However, the extent of the issue makes the whole OS experience unusable & extremely unpleasant to use, never mind test.

It would be better if this test build was revoked and the matter fixed before releasing it to the test base!

 

New System build Suggestions

just another build suggestion to consider- System Builder - Ryzen 7 1700 3 GHz 8-Core, GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11 GB Turbo (2-Way SLI), S340 (Black) ATX Mid Tower - PCPartPicker

 

is it possible to hand build a motherboard?

Might I suggest you simply build a computer, making notes and taking pictures step by step. Most people (probably including your teacher) have no idea even where to start building a computer. You'll do fine, and if you get stuck we're here to help ya out! *Toast :toast:
