Comment on Windows 10 Redstone Anniversary Update Hangs All Lenovo Laptopsparent

Comments

I manage a small fleet of six T460s and we're sitting at 50% of the units hitting a BSOD during the update and then being stuck in a perpetual reboot loop.

I've found that if I roll Windows back using Win10 installation media to a pre-Anniversary state, the computers that BSOD will (be automatically forced to) update and not BSOD on the second go around.

The "your computer has to update" mantra is a real bummer in a situation like this since if you connect the computer to the internet, it will download updates and attempt to upgrade/break again. I'm not sure if I've gotten lucky with the three I've rolled back and then had re-update, or if some poor soul is an eternal restore -> update -> BSOD loop.
