Cumulative Update KB4462919 Windows 10 v1803 Build 17134.345 - Oct. 9

Here we go again? I guess we'll see!



So..I'm confused???

Hi. To anyone who just updated with this, are there still issues with this update? 'Cause I think this was what caused driver issues (sound and Wifi) for me last week.

My Win 10 pro is repeatedly trying to install KB4462919 over and over and ends up being unscessful, I even went to remove files from SofwareDistribution and catroot2 folders in safe mode and it keeps trying to install it again a couple days later. I haven't been able to figure out how to stop it from installing, I have no "broken" devices, everything checks out in device manager.

We have had lots of problems with recent Windows updates.
Typically after re-boot the windows log and a spinner is displayed, then the screen goes black, then a blank screen with spinner is displayed. The PC will remain in this state idefinitely ( e.g. overnight ) After several forced re-boots the PC may recover.

To date we have had problems with 18 out of 136 computers since the 9th of October 2018.

Here is the latest example:

This is a brief summary of what happened last week after I restarted my laptop to run the upgrade.

On Wednesday just before I left work, I started to update my system with a system restart. When I left work, it had a blue screen and said the normal text of “System is being upgrade. Please do not turn off the computer.” So I left it to run overnight.

When I found the system in the morning, the power was off so I turned on the laptop as normal. However, after waiting for 10 – 15 minutes, the screen remained blank without any spinner. After taking advice, I restarted my computer and this time, it started but just gave me a black screen with a spinner. However, although I waited for 15 minutes, nothing happened and it just showed the blank screen with the spinner. I tried rebooting for another three or four times but kept on getting the same blank screen with just the spinner. On the fifth time of rebooting, it gave the spinner as before but this time, it progressed further and went to the login screen (with the associated background photo). However, there was no log-in section shown and when I clicked on the screen, everything completely froze and it was not possible to do anything. Therefore, I rebooted it for a sixth time and again it went all the way through to the log-in screen. This time, I didn’t click on the log-in screen and left it for 10 minutes after which the login section eventually appeared. After that, I logged in and was able to carry on using my laptop as normal.

@Brink, known issues have been updated for this CU.

After installing this update, some users cannot set Win32 program defaults for certain app and file type combinations using the Open with… command or Settings > Apps > Default apps. In some cases, Microsoft Notepad or other Win32 programs cannot be set as the default.

In some cases, attempting to set application defaults again will succeed. Microsoft is working on a resolution and estimates a solution will be available in late November 2018.
