Windows 10: Windows 10 has not updated since the glitchy April update

Back in April, Windows released an update that made it impossible for me to update my PC ever since. I've gotten a few error codes in the past, but sadly I haven't saved them and generally skipped the issue because it wasn't so urgent.


The update also seems to have made the Settings page glitchy because it freezes very often and I have to force shut it every time. I was trying to find the last update in the history update but alas, the settings froze again.


I also tried to use the troubleshooter, which also doesn't work because it also seem to freeze while searching for solutions. I've waited hours and the thing refuse to budge.


These are screenshots of what I get when trying to update Windows.








How can I force update Windows?

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.
