Hi,
I have older AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+, Asus MB, after installation of KB4056892 the system doesn't boot, it only shows the Windows logo without animation and nothing more. After several failed boots it do roll-back then it shows error 0x800f0845. Unfortunately, it seems it's not easy to disable the automatic updates without gpedit tweaks, so it tries installing and rolling-back the update over and over. The sfc /scannow shows no problem, in-place upgrade also doesn't seem to help. I can try full reinstall, but I doubt it will change anything. It seems like the update is binary incompatible with my old CPU. I understand that making the machine unbootable is the best protection from remote exploitation, but I would rather have the OS working. Especially if my CPU is not vulnerable to the Meltdown attack and the MS mitigation attempts for Spectre is more than questionable. I could find only some German and Italian people reporting the same issue (well the CPU is quite pre-historic and the KB update is very fresh), but no info / acknowledgment from the MS so far. I have Czech localization. Could anybody provide more information?

No problems now, but will repost if any come up. I let dism run while we were out for dinner!
There may have been problems with original drive, but with clean install, I used a new SSD that I happened to have. AMD X2 series processor.
Thanks, I will now unsubscribe.

DISM is pretty quick, if it gave problems, it's probably good you went to a clean install (I prefer a clean installed OS). If you continue to have issues, consider looking at a hardware issue.
CTRL-C or closing the command prompt window, would have probably ended the command, There is no reason (I can think of) to wait an hour for a proper 'dism' command to complete.
Edit: Please post back and start a new question in MC, if KB4056892 (or the ability to hide it) comes back, as you recently clean installed.... BTW what kind of processor are you running (Pls answer in new question, if necessary)...
Good you got that to work. When I tried dism, I just got an endless moving bar. After an hour or two, I shut it off and moved on to a clean install. With the clean install they don't try to install the .192 build. Getting everything back together took me some time. But well worth it.
On a AMD X2 L310 processored device, DISM stopped the looping. Note the odd times in the 'results' below. Even though MS had stopped the update, it was still Staged and on the system.... After KB4056892 (16299.192) was removed with DISM, & it is not being pushed by MS; 'Windows Update' is now running normally, after multiple checks and reboots..
On an Auto restoring AMD X2 L310 processored device this stopped the looping:
Even though KB4056892 is showing hidden by the Hide/Show troubleshooter ... I went ahead & used DISM to remove the Staged Package from this 1709 x64 system from within Windows.
from an elevated command prompt ran:
dism /get-packages /Online
pertinent results at the end:
Package Identity : Package_for_RollupFix~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~16299.125.1.6

16299.192.1.9 locked the device; so I removed it:
Back in the elevated command prompt i ran (copy all the bolded text as one line, command may be wrapped when displayed on MC; if your results from the previous DISM command are the same):
dism /Online /remove-package /packagename:Package_for_RollupFix~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~16299.192.1.9
pertinent results at the end:

"If you can boot into your recovery environment and open a command prompt, you can follow its instruction starting from step 3.
2) USB boot your system into the recovery environment - pull up a Command Prompt
3) At the command prompt - first determine what drive letter your boot volume is assigned. On mine, it was E:. It will likely be C: D: or E:. You might find that do a c: - then doing dir - hitting enter or d: - dir - enter - will be easiest to figure out which drive it is. You could also go into diskpart and look at the Volumes (diskpart (enter) - list volumes (enter) )
4) Substitute the correct drive letter in each of these commands (where e:\ is your Windows volume)
dism /image:e:\ /get-packages
5) After you run this command - it will show a list of packages. Look for the most recently installed - it likely will say "Install Pending"
6) Take that Package identity from those results and run the following command (where package name is the package you want to remove):
dism /image:e:\ /remove-package /packagename:Package_for_RollupFix~31bf385ad364e35~amd64~~15063.850.1.10 "
The package you need to remove (KB4056892), for 1709 x64 is -> Package_for_RollupFix~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~16299.192.1.9
I fixed mine by disabling Windows Update. Services.msc, stop the windows update services, set it to disabled and set the auto recovery to none. After that, it rebooted and didn't download the failed update again.
