uh guys please i beg u if u have the choice DO NOT INSTALL THE LATEST WINDOWS UPDATE theres a good chance itll destroy your pc

here’s some info on what it may do to your computer and here are some potential ways to fix it

just to date this post, the above articles are from may 23, 2018 and may 24, 2018, respectively. this is still going on, and as of these dates microsoft has not found a fix. here’s another article from may 24, 2018 that describes the problem and links to a list of ways to delay getting the update until they patch it.

sometimes old posts about bad pc updates circulate on this site months or even years after they’re defunct, THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE TIMES!!! please be careful guys, there are reports of machines being bricked by this update 😦

yeah no this is legit, it fucking made my computer unbootable, I’ve been struggling to get a back up up for days now

Just in case, for those who don’t know how to stop your Windows 10 computer from auto-updating w/o your permission; you need to do the following steps.

go to Control Panel>View large icons>Admistrative tools>Services>Scroll down and find Windows Update>Double click>Stop the current session>click Manuel or Disable from the drop down>Apply

You should also right-click the Windows Update entry and change the Startup type to Manual; it will never install an update without consent.

Also, go to Windows 10 Settings (click the Windows icon or open the Start Menu and click the gear icon in the lower left), go to Updates & Security, then Advanced Options. You can Pause Updates for up to 35 days, which should allow enough time for Microsoft to come up with a patch for this.

Be warned, this update (and presumably any patch they create to fix the problem) will remove HomeGroup from Windows 10. If you rely on this functionality, you will be screwed.
