    Update:

    The customer service representative I spoke with, Alex S., escalated my case to tier 2. Whoever he spoke with said that because the warranty is expired, I would have to pay $500.00 to replace the device regardless of the fact that the issue to my device occurred as a direct result of a forced Microsoft update.

    He is bringing up this case in a team meeting on Thursday morning and will provide an update Friday.

    I am not optimistic. I think Microsoft is trying to sweep a rather large and widespread issue under the rug that has potential to become a multimillion dollar class action lawsuit.

    You can pause the Windows 10 update.

    https://www.windowscentral.com/how-stop-updates-installing-automatically-windows-10

    And please submit a report to Microsoft from Windows 10 Feedback Hub.

    Well I checked out the link you kindly provided from windows central that offers 3 solutions to pause updates.

    Once again, no disrespect to the beautiful gingers out there, I'm a red-headed stepchild in that I use Windows 10 HOME.  Only ONE solution (pausing the updates for a very limited amount of time) will work for HOME users.  I'm not shelling out $$ to MS to get the PRO version.  PRO versions are not at all immune to the update disasters quite obviously, although they seem to have more options to get around things than us "poor" HOME users :D 

    The other two solutions given there are for PRO users only.   Read more about how to do this following the link mrdbeta provided.

    "On Windows 10 Pro Disable updates the Local Group Policy Editor allows you to disable automatic updates permanently, or you can change the Windows Update policies to decide when updates should install on the device."               AND Limit updates Alternatively, you can customize the policy to decide how you want to disable automatic updates using the Local Group Policy Editor.

    IF I had Pro, I'd be trying those work-a rounds,  but I cannot.  The plot thickens.
