The problem is getting a LTSB license. Where did you get that?

Windows may end up uninstalling itself.

So, how long until we get reports of this tool bricking systems even more?

qft. What happens if windows installs an update that bricks user's PCs / installation? How will it "uninstall" itself if it kills windows itself, the network connections etc. And it's not like we haven't seen this happening in the past 12 months. I bet the biggest issue of many PC users in the past 36 months was indeed m$, malware's a tiny problem compared to a essentially bugged OS

my guess is that they will have an automated system in startup repair to handle this.

Network connections are not needed for such feature. Only one thing is needed - working recovery partition. All updates are done through DISM, so if computer managed to boot into recovery partition fault update can be uninstalled.

Good (if it will actually work), I had one of those like 6 months ago when the "gaming" patch came out, it completely bricked my system and I don't even remember how I fixed it (I think after like 50 restarts it finally let me use an old system restore point, which I luckily had). Worst of all, this all happened while I was asleep (system started on its own and did the update). Meanwhile I disabled that too and the update prompt. I'm still on 1709 and won't update unless MS really forces me to.

That code will not work because only one rollback will be called in case it will fail.

It was a meme not a real code, but either way rollback() implementation is not defined so you can't really tell. 🙄

Since there is no result check rollback implementation either uses global variables or throws an exception. First case is bad design (deprecated by gurus of all paradigms of programming), second case is fault code. Just saying. 😎

what happens when windows can load period how it gona do that?

That is a horrid thought if such thing happen and such bug get released, there whole dev team need to be fired They want to do a new build every 6 months they least they can do Q/A the builds BEFORE the release it band bad stuff happens, when they have to pull a build update a munch times they are doing it wrong. Build update should really just be once year. obviously the 6 month idea dont work

There is the is program from Ms wushowhide that is "supposed" to hide updates you installed and dont want popping up again. I find it no longer works, I keep hiding KB4023057 and it it keeps getting found

startup repair doesn't use the OS installed ahci driver or any other os boot component.

So you saying IF I cant get in startup repair this "feature" will be able too? what happen when the repair fails? Cause I had friends and family I asked to fix said computer, went to use Startup repair and it failed, time I went to do restore build and it failed, which all result in me having to do clean installs. Like said in few months back in windows thread. I have friend of family who's PC is bricked, it dont boot and cant get into safe or startup repair, and being 600 miles away from them i cant fix it for them and they not knowledge able enough to be able to do windows clean install or under stand what I talking about even IF i tried to walk them threw it, and that all started the moment a Windows CU/Feature got installed it failed to install and after that it didnt boot no more. Last i check they went got new pc cause they didnt want to deal with it. For people like this such feature would be god send, IF it works and it dont cause bigger problems.

It's my all time favorite Windows error message. I got it once a few years ago on XP or 7. Silly Windows, my keyboard doesn't have a key labeled "Any". :P

Long time ago I managed to edit the file autoexec.bat in Windows 95 only with mouse and with the help of standard application charmap.exe (Character Map - it is still present in Windows). PS And nowadays when Windows runs on tablets, who needs keyboard anyway.

then you've suffered catastrophic disk failure and were never getting back into windows anyway.
