Windows 10: Windows 10 April Update Issues

Ever since I installed Win 10 v1803 April update, my Pc is super slow and it's annoying but it boots normal. CPU is always overclooked, RAM is fine. File Explorer takes some time to load everything on it, Windows Media Player crashes. Cortana doesn't respond to "Hey Cortana" I tried troubleshooting the microphone but the troubleshooter said everything is fine. My games are lagging and afterwhile they crash, Please help me this is so devastating.


Almost Everything I use on daily basis malfunctions. I downloaded windows 10.0-kb4464218 from microsoft website but it doesn't want to install.

Microsoft blocks Windows 10 April Update for Intel SSD 600p Series

Microsoft is blocking some Intel SSDs from installing the April 2018 Update after discovering an incompatibility issue that causes performance and stability issues. In short, the problem was explained by Microsoft as: “When attempting to upgrade to Window 10 April 2018 Update select devices with certain Intel SSDs may enter a UEFI screen reboot or crash repeatedly.” Microsoft says that this issue has no workaround and that those that have attempted to update Windows 10 to the Windows 10 April 2018 Update should revert back to Windows 10 Fall Creators Update version 1709.

Unfortunately, the announcement by Microsoft fails to list what specific Intel SSD models are having issues with the OS update. We contacted Intel and discovered that the Intel SSD 600p Series of client drives that was first introduced to the market in 2016 is the most popular drive that is having issues.

It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
