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?

    Yet again more than four months later after notify Microsoft of these problems by telephone and chat they have done nothing to correct this serious flaw in the deployment of its server to Windows Professionals machines running windows 10 with  a non AMD processor  I REPEAT I DO NOT HAVE AN AMD BUT AN INTEL. Wonder how many people are having there time deleting this infectious code from their PC in the Windows\Software Distribution folder?

    I was expecting a solution from Microsoft to stop this madness  every seven days of continual rebooting into Safe Mode and then deleting the contents of Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder and then pressing delay on reboot to only get seven days  of free from wrong codebase update being sent out . I have already spoken at length and lodged many documents to no affect. It seem to me that Microsoft must be exercising this deliberately. There is no other reason for this behavior having been notified that their Windows Update has been flawed since January this year

    I tried to talk to them today eventual spoke to John , Louise D an Microsoft Tech Answer.

    I again explained that this was a serious error wth the Micorsoft Update Server sending out wrong code base updates. I explained that each processor library would require a differant compiled version of the code  . He then asked me to do a remote session on a duifferant machine ! GO figure and now suggested an email will solve it.

    I have been given a telehone number
