After installation of KB4056892 boot failure, after roll-back error 0x800f0845

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?

    Thanx for helping me out.

    The problem of staying paused on startup Windows 10 (logo without animation and nothing more), after automatic installed update KB4056892 seems to be solved.

    Hi Blubi,

    Thank You for your advise. Does this fix keep my installed apps or does it do a clean install of windows? It will take me days to reinstall my apps.

    Cheers,

    Karlos.

    Success! I installed the KB4073290 update and restarted with no problem. Started up Show/Hide app and KB4056892 was nowhere to be seen. Even Windows update found nothing and said I'm up to date. Although after I restarted Windows update said there was a failed update but still found no more updates. So far so good.

    Thanks Blubi it did work, it took a couple of times to get it to run. it does boot back into windows with one minor problem.

    It still hangs on the windows logo screen when i first turn the computer on, but after pushing the reboot button on the computer it will then restart into windows. Some one did say it might be some bios setting i have to turn off in my bios. Its no big deal at least my computer is running again.

    Thanks for your help.

    I too have an AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-60 and have the same issue. This PC runs fine with an SSD and I dont want to have to get rid of it. If there is no fix for this, I'm getting an ipad...
