Why is Microsoft providing wrong codebase updates for an Intel based cpu machine running Microsoft Windows Professional 10 and acting like a virus?

Microsoft Windows Professional 10 was using a 64 bit intel chip was downloading only AMD64 updates. I am still receiving these in reference to 1809 update and have to reboot into safe mode and remove the contents of the directory every time the delay ticker is met to stop a 16 hour update cycle with a 52% install and the a forced return to the previous version as the update is trying to apply AMD code to my windows installation on an Intel 64bit processor. Does anyone have a hack on this ticker to reset it at startup to zero so the delay stays in force?

    "Why then if i delete the SoftwareDistribution folder from my own computer does the virus put there by Microsoft on reboot insert a folder  on my private computer illegally using my internet service to deliver and insert its malware which Microsoft has stated "will not run on my computer" and knows fully that it was working in January this year."

    Wiki definition of a computer virus:

    A computer virus is a type of malicious software that, when executed, replicates itself by modifying other computer programs and inserting its own code.[1]" This is exactly the behavior of WSUS:wuauserv"

    "Despite informing Microsoft to decist sending me these updates today it has re-enabled its virus again! Why?"

    "Now forgive me but does this not state disabled next to it ?"

    Now if this is not bad enough and indicative of a bug that Microsoft is not fixing in its virus WSUS: msaeserv. It states quite clearly on this page under description

    "Now it seem to state to me that if it is disabled, users of this computer will not be able to use Windows Update or its automatic updating feature, and programs will not be able to use the Windows Update Agent (WUA) API. Now is this not clear enough that it can be turned off permanently. Why Is Microsoft turning it back on without my permission. I have revoked all permission from Microsoft making automatic changes"

    case number: 1472209067

    Well thank you but

    After contacting Microsoft by telephone and awaiting since January 2019 to get an update and being told by Microsoft UK Readying was that it was my hardware and the lack of an updated bios  despite this working from before January.  I thought I would try running and update again a enough time had past for Microsoft to rewrite the whole update system Sadly while trying to update it still gets to 60 % then reboots with a message  "Could not install all of the components"  only to uninstall yet again .

    Why are we wasting time with this Windows Update has Microsoft forgotten how to write proper code? It seems to me it has and is no longer employing anyone who can write proper code.

    Now please bear in mind I just downloaded the latest drivers for my graphics card  from Nvidia yesterday so why is Microsoft saying it needs updating when the Nvidia system states its up-to-date then oddly stating it failed:

    Am I to believe Microsoft knows something the card manufacturer doesn't. There has been no reply from Gigabyte who I contacted in relation to Microsoft Readings comments blaming their hardware system bios  for this failure to update. I do not need to do a clean install as my system ids quite clean as described by Norton Tech who conducted forensic testing. I have to wonder why to are repeating this rubbish that even Microsoft Reading disagrees with. I was told that Microsoft server dumps this 10 (ten) gigabyte of the same crappy drivers to everyone pc connected to the internet. |Further more when I asked if Microsoft was aware of the misery it was causing as some of these machines was incapable of running his update I was told yes they was aware of this and concluded this was a intentional act .

    It is criminal?

    WELL I HAVE ASKED MULTIPLE TIMES TO DESTIST AND STOP SENDING THESE FILES TO MY COMPUTER. YOU JHHAVE TRIED NUMEROUS OPERATIONS TO STOP UPDATES ALL WHICH ARE REINSTRODUCED WHEN MICROSOFT OFFICE HAS TO REPAIR ITSELF. YES, PLEASE DESIST SENDING ME THESE UPDATES AND PROVIDE A ROUTER PORT AND ADDRESS THAT I CAN BLOCK IN MY ROUTER

    Furthermore how can it be  that the update states Its up-to-date knowing the history states everything failed

    "S urely this 10 Gigabyte on 328 million computers accessing the internet in a month[1] is a complete waste of this storage. This equates to 3,280 million Gigabytes of shared storage misused per month its quite staggering"

    As many already explain amd64 is generic industrial name (originally developed by AMD) for instruction set used on Intel and AMD on their 64 bit processors ...

    It seems that amd64 is not the OP's real problem, unfortunately, so it's probably better to just leave them be until they get tired of posting.
