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?
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.
Don't hold your breath on Microsoft fixing this. They only have to support Windows 10 on systems that the manufacturer's support it on, and no manufacturer is going to have 10 support for an ancient 939/AM2 machine.
AM2 CPUs are fully compatible with Windows 10, and this bug is not only in Windows 10, the bug is also present in Windows 7 with update KB4056894, and in Windows 8.1 with KB4056898, so they have to fix it anyway, because is affecting all the current supported Windows versions.
We are currently running through an investigation regarding the error code 0x800f0845 being received after installing the KB4056892 update.
Please wait for further announcements for the fix. In the meantime, we strongly encourage everyone to send a feedback to us using the Feedback Hub.
One more thing: the Feedback Hub is not working in my Windows. I receive message: "An error occured". And how can I leave there any feedback???
I have the same problem with an old AMD chip

I get a failed intall with repeating uninstalls, reboots, and reinstalls
for KB4056892 (4) with error 0x800f0845
I have this issue too. AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+.
After spending hours trying to fix this boot problem (didn't know it was caused by this KB4056892 update...) I decided to install Windows from scratch.
I've got a little "angry" when it got stuck at boot screen again after finish installing all updates.
But after rebooting 2 times, Windows was able to successfully rollback the update.
I then find out the problem was caused by the lastest cumulative update.
So I uninstalled it and run the wushowhide.diagcab to hide it.
And I paused Windows Update for 35 days just to give MS a chance to fix the issue in the meanwhile.
But I'm not keeping my hopes too high...
Microsoft "Show or hide updates" troubleshooter package does indeed work to hide KB4056892. However, the timing is tricky: You have to run it after Windows 10 has repaired the KB4056892 update -- after the update has been rolled back but before it's been downloaded and installed again (waiting to restart). Run wushowhide.diagcab, click "Advanced," uncheck "Apply repairs automatically," and click "Next." After a while, you'll get two choices -- pick "Hide Updates." You should then see KB4056892 to select to hide. If KB4056892 isn't shown, then I guess the timing probably wasn't right for executing wushowhide.diagcab. http://download.microsoft.com/download/f/2/2/f22d5fdb-59cd-4275-8c95-1be17bf70b21/wushowhide.diagcab
(I tried to let Windows Update automatically install several times and then installed the standalone update, each time ending with just the Windows 10 logo with no animation and no hard disk activitity right after rebooting. A couple of reset buttons should put you into repair mode. My problem is on a computer with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+, Asus M3N78 Pro Motherboard. Normally, works great. KB4056892 installed okay on all my other computers, including three other AMD processors.)
