    Updates completely breaking my computer?


    So, I've been having an issue lately.


    Every time my PC does an update according to event viewer, the last two times this has happened it was the "2020-11 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1909 for x64-based Systems" it will then refuse to boot up. Any attempt to turn the computer on will cause the booting screen to freeze and be replaced by a WHEA Uncorrectable Error Blue Screen. My PC will then try and do an automatic repair, which will fail and take me to the reset options screen. The only ways I have fixed this issue is by reinstalling Windows, or, in recent developments, I found if I tell the PC to turn off through this screen, unplug the PC this step might not do anything, might be coincidence haha, and turn it back on, it boots up and says it failed to complete the updates, reverting the changes and my PC works fine. This method of fixing it has worked twice now.


    This buys me some time, however it always tries to update again even going so far as to restart itself as I was launching a game, despite me pausing updates for 7 days!. I have had a couple of WHEA errors during normal use which it restarts from fine, but these haven't happened for a good few weeks.


    I need some help, as I can't just not update my computer!!! Are the updates broken, or is there something wrong with my PC that prevents them from working?


    Many thanks,

    Kirk
