As per title After installing a number of updates today, I got the Bluescreen on reboot, accompanied by the CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED message. I restored back to a drive image from last week, and tried reinstalling the updates, one at a time. KB 2930275 requires a reboot, and having applied the update again, the Bluescreen occurred again. Tried it on my laptop as well, and the same thing occurred. Both my PC and my laptop are on Win8.1 Pro x64, with the unofficial "Spring update" (KB2919442 & KB2919355) Anyone got any ideas? Cheers all.
yes, don't install unofficial updates. not like they're gonna make your computer faster or cook you breakfast in the morning. what's the rush? wait for the official updates soon
To satisfy WU... the only updates not included (minus monthly malicious and defender definitions) KB2894853 (Defender Functionality update) KB2899189 (Camera Codec Pack) KB2928690 (Mar rollup - Included in 2919355, but nagged for currently in WU) KB2938527 (IE Flash Player update) Everything else is already updated in 2919355.
I also had this problem on 2 computers. One time I restored it to an date few days ago, after restoring I installed ALL UPDATES RELATED WITH SPRING UPDATE and THEN REBOOTED, after that the computer was running fine The other computer, after restoring it ends up, installing updates and reboots, so its an never ending problem here - until I can figure out, how to stop install those updates after the first reboot after restoring Does anybody know, how to prevent windows from installing updates after reboot? I mean, it have to boot normaly, so that I can login myself and install all updates and THEN reboot. My problem, there only is one restore-point and this ends up in reboot and install updates....
I was in the same exact situation. Restore, then immediately throw in a recovery disk to access the recovery menu console before the computer loads the restored Windows. Run this command to cancel the pending updates and then you should be all okay. Code: dism.exe /image:C:\ /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions The drive might not be C:\
