Windows 10 updates keep turning off system restore thus deleting previous restore points!

What seems to be the error message when you're trying to install the update? Would you be willing to upgrade to 1803?

THANKS AGAIN for that link as I had lost it earlier due to a host of issues with THIS PC....it is my companion PC, an ACER which is not updating well at all.    None of my PC's are that old and all of them, save my newest one, were previus Windows 7 PC's which I am now beginning to think are the issues that keep cropping up with Updates.

I do wisht that MS had decided to NOT load down older W7 PC's with all of these newer apps which may be the issue???   I am not sure, but I surely know that there is a correlation to the number of update issues seen with three of my Four PC's running my accounting programs and so on.   I am running a fairly sophisticated Network here and that is fine now.

But, this very last PC is just nagging me to an endless feeling of frustration.   It is now stuck on "detecting problems."   Let's see what happens next???  I just hope that this troubleshooter does not delete files or corrupt my network, which has happened six times, with my Mouse Sharing program.   SHEESH!

I appreciate your reply.

Just keep us updated with the result so we can provide further assistance.

Photos of the error message or anything that you may encounter unussual is highly appreciated.

Hello, after weeks of trying everthing, short of downloading a clean install which I should not have to do, I am still stuck on "detecting problems" using the WU Troubleshooter.   It shows a blue bar, running across my screen, with a note:   "intiliazing the diagnostic."   IT IS STUCK!

When I go into my FIND W10 Update HISTORY, it is empty!

Why is this happening?

I am trying to simple update W10!
