BUG in feature update to windows 10 version 1909 via enablement package (KB4517245)

When I first went to Win 10 I could not find the 'Control Panel' either, but learned a way. Click on Start Button then just start typing Control Panel, before you get done typing you will a best match at top left of the pop up or in the tip right an icon of 'Control Panel' . Click on either and the Control Panel will open up. Somehow I saved it to my desktop as an Icon and now just access it from there. Once you have the Control Panel open you then need to look for the 'view by: dropdown menu, mine has Category, just click there and pick large or small icons to find Indexing Options.

Steve, also where do i find the Go to the 'windows program uninstaller.' Thanks for the info

At work we have had to uninstall the 1909 feature UPDATE on ALL pc's. At first we thought we had a virus of some sort, because after an update and reboot all that worked was the monitor. no keyboard, mouse or network. 

I stumbled onto the update issue and tried it and uninstalling that feature worked. now that Microsoft is FORCING us off of windows 7, we have to go to 10, even though we don't want too.

my problem is when you update a computer from windows 7 to windows 10 during install it installs the 1909 update and then you are stuck. if you uninstall it, it takes you back to windows 7 and you are back where you started.  there has to be a way to get 10 on a laptop/computer without the install updating automatically so we can pause or stop updates until a fix comes out.

My PC updated from Windows 7 just fine. In 2015, which is when you should have migrated. My work PC updated from 7 to 10 earlier this year with 0 issues too. You guys must be doing something very wrong. Given that you're only just updating I'm willing to bet the drivers and BIOSes on the affected PCs aren't even up to date.

A poor workman blames his tools. Get better at what you're doing.

Judah,

thanks for the no good answer. Why are you on here if you are not helping people?  BTW, I am an IT Director, so I know what I am doing. Panasonic is having trouble with this same issue, but the Dell laptops updated just fine, and with that in mind not all vendors Dell, HP, Panasonic, Toshiba and so on are not all the same.

We, like Millions did not update from 7 until forced to do so for several reasons. When you work for a large company with 1,000's of computers you understand more about updates, third party vendors and why you DO NOT run out and update every time there is one. Not all companies were ready for windows 10, like Cisco, SEL, SYME, SEDC and many more.

I have updated a very large number of desktops and laptops and I did not had a problem that I could not fix until the Panasonic Tough-books that were over $5,000 each with many more thousands of dollars worth of software loaded on them, so forgive me if I along with the entire IT Dept are slow and cautious about changes.

Have a nice day. no response is necessary.
