Microsoft again halts October 2018 Update on some PCs
Blimey, this release must be a small nightmare for Microsoft, it seems PCs running corporate security software Morphisec Protector or applications that make use of Morphisec technology will be blocked from installing the latest large Windows 10 update.
Microsoft updated its support page stating it will block some computers from installing the October Update again. reports myce;
Microsoft explains the reason on its website, “Microsoft and Morphisec have identified an issue on devices that have installed Morphisec Protector or another application that uses the Morphisec Software Development Kit (SDK) including: Cisco AMP for Endpoints. These applications may impact customers’ ability to save Microsoft Office documents.”
Microsoft recommends users who want to install the October 2018 Update to temporarily uninstall the affected software and then install an updated version of the software once its available. The company also states it’s working with Morphisec and Cisco on fixing the issue.

October update has been is a big mess for Microsoft.
It is already December and still once again they are pulling the update for the (i don't know i have lost count) time.
I think they should just focus on the 2019 spring update and make sure they don't mess up that release too.

As much as I like taking the piss out of MS. I don't really think its their fault as the same thing is happening in linux.
A few changed instructions and low level changes to CPU function to deal with spectre/meltdown etc have pretty much invalidated 10 years hardware/driver/OS interaction testing.
Fucked if I want to work as a system engineer right now and carry the can for intel and ARM cheap speed hack that they got away with for years.

That does it, I'm reverting back to RS4. I've been waiting long enough for 'em to fix this poor update.

Seems MS can no longer release "beta" OS's for consumers to troubleshoot for them.
Time to do it right.

1809 is alpha, not beta.

Maybe they ought to block their releases to anyone outside the office for a few weeks. Ya know, like... beta testing internally.
