Windows 10 October update now available

once again I ask Does anyone have the lawsuit contact information?

Two computers down from Microsft and really tired of their, please be on hold, oh look lets hang up and have you call back, and please let us call you back in 4 days attitudes.   The put off deploy does nothing but make people angry.

I have been put off by Microsoft for 4 days now and hung up on 6 times, and am on day four with no computer and issue can not be resolved by any suggestions on the internet or suggestions that Windows offered.

This computer is almost new that crashed, and this is the second computer that Windows updates had crashed.

They send the calls to other countries, I have yet to have someone who spoke English.  It is not only hard to understand these people they have connected me to, but they are of no knowledge as to helping.

Seriously, Microsoft should have a severe lawsuit that will kick them in their tails and really make them stand up an straighten out al the issues they have caused people.

lost files-----------------HAHA   I lost my entire computer!  It appears that it gave me three codes, 1) critical process error, Stop Store exception, and one that was over not enough memory.

THEN it gave the blue screen of death and NOTHING that Microsoft suggested worked, NOTHING on web worked.

Finally windows claimed it was the manufactor and I should contact them!     

NO this up date apparently was a two part massive hit which in the end kills your computer.

My issues began on the update before Windows update on Oct third.  MY computer crashed on Oct 3.  Most likely after the second half of the update hit it.

SO in my estimation I LOST my entire file system!  I also had two files appear before it had crashed.

Grabbed the ISO on Tuesday 10/2 and have done 4 desktops with DVD in place upgrade and 1 laptop with a msdc in place over 1803 with no problems.  I keep my main data on separate hdd(s) and/or ssd(s); but also utilize the user/documents etc. structure for unimportant files.  Everything ported OK on all systems and I use OneDrive. I guess things are aligned for my systems this week as I usually get hit with these problems; hence the Important Data is always kept on Separate Drive(s) with redundant backups everywhere. Been using 2Brightsparks SynBackFree for Decades.

Exactly. People don't understand the value of backups until they login one day and their drive has crashed and or the OS blew up. I do system images twice a week to a separate drive and my 4TB data drive gets backed up to a WD external 4TB twice a month. That ext drive then gets taken out of the loop so if anything happens to the system where everything is hosed, I still have my ext 4tb drive with all my data intact. I trust manual tactics far more than any automated backup suite. Just my opinion

Hi, thanks for the reply. It's not about backups but about the update\product that shouldn,t be on the market. If they would sell you say a house and the house would explode next day with your dog inside would you say oh that's ok I have insurance?

Yea, that was why that there was no updates even I have checked thousand times.

The 1809 update is still showing on my "update"....I had downloaded and attempted to install but got a message that said "Windows could not configure 1 0r more components.  To install Windows, restart the computer and then restart the installation".  I have done the install, reinstall and all the troubleshooters and still the same message.  Guess I'll wait.  

Microsoft are advising NOT to Update to 1809, as there are problems that will be fixed in a later October download.

I'm staying on 1803 as long as is possible to avoid the problems other users have had. Hurry up Microsoft -get the fix out ASAP!
