Windows 10: Windows 11 feature update broke my computer!

Hi there, Windows decided to update with what I assume is the windows 11 feature update. On completion my computer was completely unusable - it was like a fresh install with all of my programmes and settings gone, and on top of that the taskbar wouldn't load and I couldn't even run file explorer!I had to call in my IT friend to try and roll back the update as I need to work today. This is really bad - I thought in 2022 we would be past updates completely trashing my PC. Any idea when this will be fixed or how to restore my PC?Barney

Update Broke Computer Need Help!

Windows 10 Upgrade
According to this list, your PC isn't on Acer's approved list for Win 10. Could you check that?

This is an older PC which came with Win 7. Have you ever clean installed Win 10 on it?

• AMD Athlon II X2 255 Dual Core Processor
• Windows 7 Professional
• 2GB DDR3 RAM
• 320GB HDD
• DVD Rewriter
• Integrated Graphics
• PS.VB1E3.082

We can only proceed step by step.

So chkdsk and SFC /Scannow are ok. But any attempt to reset your PC or run DISM fails.

Is this what you tried? I'm not 100% clear what the above means. Clean install or this procedure?
Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade - Windows 10 Forums

If you tried this, it's possible it failed as you need (it seems) some 500Mb of unallocated space on your hard disk.
