Windows 10: Windows Update trashed my Laptop AGAIN

ONCE AGAIN !!! Windows have forced a update onto my Toshiba Satillite A200 laptop and now the built in LAN will not work due to the crappy driver Microsoft insists is the correct one for the machine.

I know the A200 is a very old laptop by todays standards but it is a well built machine that can take the knocks and bumps newer machines cannot so why is Microsoft hell bet on trying to wreak havoc on it by forcing bad drivers onto it and REMOVING PRORAMS that I use because they do not like them This includes Epson scanner and printer control software, Kapaskey Internet security and other software WHICH I HAD TO BUY AND CANNOT JUST REINSTALL .

WHEN IS MICROSOFT GOING TO GET INTO ITS THICK HEAD THEY DO NOT OWN OUR COMPUTERS WE DO!!!! I would think they would not like us to enter their large data centres and TRASH their machines with updates that do not work and just walk away without a word BUT THIS IS WHAT THEY CAN THINK THEY CAN DO TO US!!!!


WVERY TIME THEY ISSUE A UPDATE THEY **** SOMEBODYS MACHINE UP AND JUST WALK AWAY OR EXPECT YOU TO PAY THEM OUTRAGUS FEES TO FIX BY THEIR SO CALLED TECHANICAL SUPPORT

Cumulative Update KB4338819 Windows 10 v1803 Build 17134.165 - July 10


This update totally destroyed me, which was not totally unexpected.

I have noticed that update issues are fairly common occurrences.

Microsoft must have a site that lists step by step actions that they want you to take when Windows 10 Updates and trashes a system?

Does such a site exist? Where do I go to get help?

Recovering Windows 10 After an Update

Step 1:
sfc /scannow

Step 2:
Dism

Step 3:
etc.. Uninstall Video Drivers and reinstall

 

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.

 

Best laptop under $800??

Well the last one I suggested seems to be the best for 650$
