    Unable to use tablet after the Windows updates.


    I have a tablet that I love dearly, but whenever Windows 10 decides to pop an update on there, it stops working. Completely. I have spent hours trying to fix it, followed every troubleshooting guide under the stars, even prayed (I'm not religious) but nothing except rolling back Windows 10 to a previous build works to get rid of my problem.


    Only issue is, whenever I leave my computer on sleep because, I don't know, I'd like to eat??? or something? Windows decides that it wants to take advantage of me not looking at the screen, and updates.


    Every time.


    I always dread waking my computer (or even turning it on, if it shuts down) because I, without fail, have now seen the mocking blue screen of Windows saying "Hello Unable to use tablet after the Windows updates. :)))) here's an update!!! Don't shut off your PC Unable to use tablet after the Windows updates. :))!!" in the soft font of Segoe UI, and every time I have to painstakingly roll it back to a previous build because "my apps don't work with this." I always spend a couple hours troubleshooting JUST IN CASE *this* time the drivers may work, maybe *this* time the settings will work, but it never does. It's so frustrating.


    I've tried setting the update option to "defer feature updates" but it doesn't work. Nothing will stop the thirst for power, and I for one have had ENOUGH!


    PLEASE tell me there is some workaround to this hell. I do not want to pay another $500 (or more) for a new tablet when my old one works wonderfully, except with the latest Windows updates.
