Earlier this month, @WindowsUpdate installed the cumulative October update and sent my PC into a boot loop. I was able to recover the PC and pause updates, but the update was installed again last night with the same results.
I& #39;d like to suggest better mitigation tools. Disabling updates does not seem to be supported so I was unable to refuse this update using discoverable tools in Windows. This is not the first time What& #39;s worse, this is not the first time that I& #39;ve encountered something like this.
See the cumulative update announcement here:

Please see this thread, @MicrosoftHelps. @WindowsUpdate has destroyed my @Windows installation. Previous mitigations are not working, and the PC is stuck in a boot loop.
