Inaccessible boot device after latest insider update this morning (build 21364)

Nothing works in the recovery mode as it cannot back out the update, cannot repair. 

One of the update is kb5003399 and I forgot the other one, will have to boot back to the command prompt.

In the command prompt, I can tell it's not showing my 1TB drive, it's in x:/ with very little space.

Also, wusa.exe doesn't exist in that command prompt. 

Can anyone help to get my system booting again?

    There is a newer version (9.3.1.19) on the microsoft catalog,can anyone confirm it to be affected?

    I've manually updated to this version across the 3 device types, Bottom Device, Controller, and Config Device, after switching my BIOS to SATA and NVMe RAID, and haven't seen any issues. I only had the issue in this thread when I was running in SATA AHCI mode without NVMe RAID enabled (i.e. the mobo defaults).

    I speculate it was removed from windows, otherwise windows would not boot from M.2. I have the same message successfully install on 5/7/2021. Just a left over.

    In device Manager, there is something called AMD Raid Bottom-Device (something like that). This is the driver you need to rollback. When I did, my nvme appeared again instantaneously !

    Or try uninstall it, restart PC. It should appear again now.

    Problem was caused by Windows Update installing some unwanted AMD SCSI driver.

    Problem was fixed by removing AMD SCSI driver using command prompt after three unsuccessful boots according to the below instructions:
