Windows 10 bulk patch produces INFINITE CRASH LOOP
Found on The Register on Wednesday, 12 August 2015
The cumulative update is rebooting after getting part way through the installation process on x64-based systems without completing set up. The update is KB3081424.
“Downloads, reboot to install. Gets to 30% and reboots. Gets yo [sic] 59% and reboots. Gets to 59% again and then states something went wrong so uninstalling the update. Wait a few minutes and reboot. Back to login screen This happens without fail, every single time.”
It’s the second update glitch to hit Window 10: update KB3074681 came days before the big launch and crashed file explorer while there were also problems with Nvidia drivers.
