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?

    The problem your explaining is not about the intel to amd update itself rather that the update wont proceed to install, configure and return to desktop.

    Reason for this could be as followed:

    1. Already have the update but Microsoft is still pushing out the same update everyday (Just ignore it until it goes away).
    2. Previous Windows 10 update was not applied  "(Check which previous update was need and apply it).
    3. Activation of account has not been applied (need to fix your account to activate the version of windows)
    4. Incorrect software driver in the update it self is not installing due to being blocked by Windows defender folder protection or tamper protection and or the anti-virus software your running. (Turn these off).
    5. Device like ram need to be re seated.
    6. Drivers for other devices are out of date
    7. Adobe products are not up to date
    8. Game like Swtor need updating
    9. Third party graphic software need updating
    10. System corruption caused by back update use (Windows update trouble shooter to see if that correct it.)
    11. Clean install is need.

    Other than that the update is in the correct format and is what its intend to be for both systems intel and amd.

    It seems that from my post time this morning of 4 hours ago this is the short time these cyclic events to throw  these machines in to disarray is occurring. Disabled  status has been changed to Manual Trigger as a fore runner to it being run. Now If I have set this to disabled on my own machines then why is this still not disabled during the course of the machines being open today 4 hours later?

    "I have to say the Elite team have been really good at Norton and have spent a long time examining this problem which is devastating our computers . Currently machines run in to this cyclic redundancy caused by this Windows Update Virus  for 32 hours regularly each week  rendering them unusable.   I was hoping for better support from Microsoft hving visited Microsoft Reading UK regularly in the past."
