Really wish they would address this problem. I ran all of the suggestions other than reinstalling Win 10 and nothing worked for me either. If the other update work why doesn't this one?

Microsoft will not fix this. You will get untold pages of promises and gibberish, but this update needs to be replaced with one that works. If Microsoft gave a damn about us they'd test updates before sending them out.

I now have an endless loop whereby my PC attempts to install this update every time I reboot.

Thanks for that, Microsoft.

Dear Mike,

I had to use the command console to remove the downloaded installation to prevent it from being installed on reboot. I then paused the installations indefinitely, deleted the files that were left on the disk and solved the problem. From the moment the update was left pending, the laptop would not go into standby correctly, as I said in a previous post, in an early morning reboot I even found the fans off and the computer literally on fire. Now everything works correctly. Of course, I tried all the absurd MS instructions before wasting a lot of time to remove this mess. I don't expect any solution from the company. On the University computers, before it was installed and the same thing happened to me, I stopped all updates. To solve your problem you can use the command console, I have a class right now but I'll try to give you the method I followed later.

Good luck and patience!

I do not know if this will work but I have delayed all updates until mid-November. I am hoping the November Patch Tuesday updates will fix this - am I being naive ?????

Here you are:

1. Delete temporary  files

Open Run: press Windows key + R

Enter %temp%

Gel rid of the temporary files

Files are located at C:\Users[username]\AppData\Local\Temp

2. Delete the files of the Software Distribution Software

CMD line as administrator:

net stop wuauserv

net stop bits

Windows Update Service and the Background Intelligent will be stopped.

Go to C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder

Delete all files, maybe some can be in use. In this case, restart the computer and try again.

Once done the never-ending loop of installation of this update will end. If you want to activate updates again:

net start wuauserv

net start bits

3. You can download freeware, StopUpdates, much easier.

Good luck!
