After installing KB4464330 (build 17763.55) my HP EliteDesk 800 G3 the machine refuses to boot, ending with BSOD WPF_VIOLATION.

I was able to get the PC working again using an earlier restore point.

It seems that this problem at least HP machines:

I contacted MS support and was told that:

Actually HP computers are not the only product affected for this issue other computers as well like DELL etc. That's why for now, we’ve temporarily paused the update for people who seek to check for updates, to investigate an isolated reported issue and will make it available for download again once ready.

Ok, so this is known issue for 17763.55 cumulative update?

That's correct and other issue has been reported as well but our higher level of support already working on it

Update 10/12/18

Please see this article.

In another article, we have resolution steps if you still experience the Blue Screen.

We’re aware of the issue and working with HP to investigate.

    We got the same problem in ower company, All computers are HP brand :(.

    Not all PC's have there issues so we are lucky (no off wood) .

    We try the rename file fix and it works but after i was in windows and did a reboot of the pc i was back to beginning :(

    Also try the restore point option did work for some pc's not for all.

    Hope Microsoft will fix it soon i dont want to reinstall 300+ pc's XD

    Wasn't this update tested by thousands of Insiders (on machines from many different vendors)? How can they roll it out in this state?

    What I'm not sure about is whether Insiders have any involvement in testing Cumulative Updates and driver updates.  It's possible.  Maybe when they roll out an early insider Win10 build they also bung some beta drivers and updates with it too, through Windows Update ?  I really don't know.  One thing we all do know is Microsoft are no longer testing their software releases properly.  They laid off a lot of testers a few years ago and I think it may be a good idea for them to start head-hunting to get them back.

    If Microsoft don't care about their users, at least they should be concerned about the damage caused to their reputation this month.  October has been an absolute shitshow for Windows 10.
