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?

My interpretation, is that the problem started with KB4051963, as earlier coding could not anticipate future changes..... and that x86, required complete replacement of additional patches.......
Understanding that KB4073290 is Cumulative, I know KB4056892 is not on many devices. That being said, my question is -> How Cumulative is KB4073290?
Nice to know a fix was put out with quick intense cooperation, thank you MS & AMD.......
You mean KB4073290?
KB4073290 is for x64/64bit and KB4073291 is for X86/32bit, and boot updates solved the same issue with AMD Athlon 64 and related CPUs with unbootable status caused by KB4056892.
Thank you for the info, although I am confused:
Has been interpreted as the fix for Win10 x64 AMD X2 unbootable state.
