Windows 10: Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 1709 Fail - Very Annoying Issue

Hello everyone;


In this thread I have been trying to solve my problem for a while but it's locked.

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-update/windows-10-fall-creators-update-1709-fail-very/e5115214-642e-45de-bb46-d182a2be6d56


In the last message the person who locked the thread says:


Hi,


You may still encounter the same error while trying to install the 1709 update due to a corrupted Windows Update components. As things may have changed since your last post, may we know if you're still having the same concern?



I didnt understand what she is talking about, is there any other new updates in case I install, which will make 1709 unnecessary? I tried tens of times by windows update screen which pops up nearly every day but I got 0x8007001f and I gave up, because everytime I get this error and I spent 5 gb.


PS: I have tried all "uninstall antivirus, uninstall audio drivers etc..." things, so please do not comment those kind of non-sense suggestions.


Finally I have realized smth, in my settings -> Update status screen I see 3 updates and the status bar with %0 remaining.


I will be glad if someone will save my computer from this windows update nightmare




:)

Creative X-Fi Soundcards and Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 1709 = Complete Disaster / Not Working

Hi i need some help. I am also suffering this bug that when installing Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 1709 + Creative X-Fi Titanium sound card it goes into oblivion of black screens crash , bsod and system is unresponsive. When installing a fresh / new installation from my usb thumb drive of the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 1709 i get some weird black screen crash and system becomes unresponsive after installing the latest drivers from the creative website or Daniel K package for my Creative X-Fi Titanium pci-express sound card. After installation of the fresh OS i noticed it detects my X-Fi Titanium as a high definition audio device under device manager sound and not as an X-Fi sound card as previously on Windows 10 Creators Update 1703.

With Windows 10 Creators Update 1703 everything runs perfectly without a single problem with my Creative X-Fi Titanium , the problem started with the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 1709 , so the culprit of the problems is the Creative drivers and W10 Fall CU 1709 , as something has change in the way it detects audio devices and the drivers.

I have wrote to microsoft support for help and on the feedback hub from within windows but without luck so far :/ , this is frustrating as everything was working so good and great before the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 1709. I have search the whole web for a week for a fix but i have not been unable to find one. As some other people who have posted here on this thread i also am running an AMD AM4 x370 / Ryzen set up.

If someone has found a fix for this huge problem please reply to me if possible so that i can use my Creative X-Fi soundcard again ( I'm Using Realtek Onboard sound and it is horrible , me do not like it ). Please help.

Hardware Configuration:
--------------------------
Asus Crosshair VI Hero x370 / AMD Ryzen 1700x / G.Skill 2x8GB DDR4 3200Mhz Cas 14 / Nvidia GTX 1080Ti / Crucial MX300 1TB SSD + WD Green 2TB HD / eVGA Supernova G3 1300w psu / and of course Creative X-Fi Titanium pci-express sound card.

Here is a link for this same problem reported at Microsoft support and on Creative Support website:

New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

Heres a couple examples:

Here

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
