Update from 1607 to 1703 failing (again!)
If you look up my threads, you'll find that last winter going from 1511 to a properly working 1607 proved impossible after seven tries, so I cleared the system SSD, disconnected all the other HDD/SSD's and did a clean reinstall. Well, same thing is happening with 1611 to 1703. Windows is now daily trying prompting me to make the update, which I'd delayed, and now won't even complete the most recent 1607 cumulative updates unless I allow 1703 to come along for the ride. 1703 crashes (computer freezes) at 25% during "working on updates" every time, even with MBAM turned off and disabled in Autoruns. The only good news is that a manual shutdown and reboot brings back 1607 intact. I'm neither in the mood nor see the need for another clean install. What the heck could be going on this??
