Windows 10: Updates that just cause more problems

After an automatic update to my laptop yesterday morning, i was left with an expensive paperweight. For the third time this year, i will have to pay someone a lot of money to fix it again. Since i am a single mother of a severely disabled child, that means it will be quite a while before I will be able to use it again. Needless to say, I am not happy. This time, everything was wiped clean. Not only do I not have internet capabilities, like the previous update, this time i have absolutely nothing. No windows, not internet, no access to anything and no money left to pay to get it fixed. Thanks for even more disappointment!

firefox and IE will cause problems?

could there be any reasonable explanation why firefox and ie would cause problems?

oh, and when the machine crashes it is the blue screen of death and when windows recovers it suggests bios update. this is a machine that hasnt been upgraded driver wise or bios wise, yet they insist it is firefox. give me a break.

 

Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...


That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

I suggest Option 1 is easier.

If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.

 

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.


Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
