Windows 10 users have long complained about Windows Update bugs and have asked Microsoft to offer them more leeway in managing them. The good news is that Redmond heard you: Windows 10 users will soon be able to schedule update downloads, just like they can currently schedule restarts.
Until the company fully implements this feature, here are a few tips on how to make the Cumulative Update installs safer for your Windows 10 computer.
How to avoid Windows 10 Cumulative Update install bugs
- Make sure you have a recent manual restore point before Microsoft rolls out the Patch Tuesday updates.
- Run wushowhide.diagcab on Patch Tuesday day to see if any updates are available.
- Hide the new Cumulative Update. In this manner, the update won’t fail and roll back when installed through Windows Update.
- Check for updates with Windows Update. Install all the updates that don’t require a restart.
- Create a new manual restore point
- Download the new Cumulative Update from the Microsoft Update Catalog website
- Disable the Internet connection to avoid any installation interference via Internet
- Type msconfig > go to System Configuration > go to the Services tab > Hide all Microsoft Services > uncheck all the non-Microsoft Services > click OK > restart
- Run the .msu file downloaded in step 6 > select “Run anyway”> restart > install should be successful
- Run winver to verify if the update succeeded
- Type msconfig > go to System Configuration > go to the Services tab > Hide all Microsoft Services > check all the non-Microsoft Services >click OK > restart
- Enable the Internet connection
- Go to the Device Manager > update your NVIDIA driver. Get the latest driver modified by Microsoft, the driver file details should say UGLY Version 2.1 Build_223. Users report that the Windows 10 drivers downloaded from Nvidia’s website often cause BSoD issues. We also recommend a driver updater tool (100% safe and tested by us) to automatically download all the outdated drivers on your PC.
- Create a new restore point
- Sleep your computer.
