I'm using an ACER aspire ES 14 laptop and it's been with me for over a year now with no problems whatsoever. Not until the start of 2018 where out of nowhere, windows 10 wants me to install their updates. Now for how long have I been ignoring those latest updates and seen some of the peoples complaints in recent forums that the newest updates destroys their PC/laptops instead of making it better, I'm kinda scared and also don't have the time to get all of the updates in my laptop. First, it was the windows assistant that was bugging me, where it would just show up and stops me for doing anything else. I tried the following method of going to "Services" and disabling both "Background Intelligence Transfer" and "Windows Update" and restarted my laptop, but of course those didn't work since it will automatically enables themselves again while also installing windows 10 assistant back. So I tried another method I found here that needs me to go to Task Scheduler and do some tweaking here and there, and what do you know, it worked! At least for 3 weeks... Then a few days ago, I found windows 10 assistant installs itself again, so I had to do the same steps I did before and it worked so far, then the next day where I was expecting it to install itself again. Something new happened, instead of windows 10 assistant, I just received a notification in my Action Center that "We're getting your PC up to date" and I know for sure that it's still a windows update and this is the part that's making me nuts and stressed out since I have no idea how to stop this, I'm all out of options even from searching this on the web. So I really need help from this.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Why isn't your organization running Enterprise where you'd have control of the updates?
If you already are running Enterprise maybe your organization should look at getting training for you IT crew so that know how to properly setup the O/S and Policies.
Because it's not an enterprise and most laptops are always roaming around countries and probably half are Apple
Ahhh so you aren't a business that values you data and up-time. Glad you clarified the issue.
Definitely are but from an os operator that has a broad view of all their customers and values not a everyone must fit in this box view point.
How's that access to 360 going?
Luckily we use Google business for the majority of our major data store. Unluckily some laptops are with one sighted Microsoft.
I am having this same problem with a Dell Optiplex 755. I am industry professional and infrastructure architect for a large consultancy and I have never seen a problem like this.
It is definitely caused by the Windows 10 Update that has come out in the last month or so but not on all machines. I don't think it affects all machines because not all of the 10 or so machines in my home lab Opti 755, 9020, Lat 6430S & 6440) have been affected. I have however tried it on 4 different Opti 755's and it results in the same error on each of them after the update. All of these machines have been running Windows 10 since it came out with no problems.
This is the error I get.
I have googled this error and have tried literally every solution I could find and nothing worked EXCEPT to force the boot process into recovery mode (power off several times during boot) and then go to the button to revert back to the previous version of the software. When it does that, I will work again but the automatic update restarts and causes the problem again.
Today I did a FRESH INSTALL of Windows 10 from a Dell labeled Windows 10 install disk. Everything went fine until the update. After the install I joined it to the domain and no prob. I could login to my domain, access the NAS and do everytihing you would expect. After the update I get the message above.
Any help, guidance, advice or whatever would really be appreciated. I can recreate the problem at will but it does take an image restore and then the update.
Thanks,
R Pierce
