KB4056892 is Awaiting restart

Unfortunately, when I did a restart it bricked my system. I had a large windows logo on the screen and it just sat there.  I rebooted and was able to trigger a repair.  The repair said it was backing out the last update as it would not be completely installed.

With KB4056892 is Awaiting restart I did another restart and had the same problem.  At the end I was staring at a Windows logo that just sat there.

Again I triggered a repair and the system is now usable.  However, Windows Update still says: KB4056892 is Awaiting restart

How do I block it so it doesn't get installed if I have to reboot the machine?

    No good for me personally, because mine is an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core and there are no provisions for a patch.

    It is up to AMD to patch it. They made it.

    AMD as with many other chipset manufacturers do not care if your current system is outdated as is in my case.

    They are only interested in profit otherwise people would simply hold on to their PC's for many years.

    This is the result of the search Radeon done on my machine...

    That is freakin' sad.

    But, you know, machines do improve over time and computers more than most.

    I mean, you could still watch a TV made in 1958 today, if you liked. (and could attach the cable box through the antenna leads like we used to do with our portables back in the 90s) but you wouldn't expect the same performance as you get with a modern plasma set, now would you?

    Same with CPUs. They just become obsolete and you have to get a new processor or even a new computer to keep up with technological improvements.

    That's just how it is in the 21st Century.

    😒
