New Windows 10 update issues

[Ultimate Steve]

So, apparently Microsoft pushed out a new update today, and a lot of people on reddit (particularly /r/windows10) are saying that this update has several issues, ranging from audio resets to completely bricking their computers. This is concerning me... Has anyone had any negative experience with this update or advice on what to do about it?

I've currently disabled the updater service, but some people are saying that it doesn't work and that the update was forced. I'll be leaving my PC on until these problems are somewhat addressed.

I had a major update a couple days ago, none pending now, but aside from a couple more notification popups, nothing has changed for me. 

If you have a build similar to ones that are having issues, then not updating may be a solution till the update is patched.

Had the update a couple of days ago. It seems to be a "spyware" update prompting you to choose whether you want this or that ads displayed and how they can collect your data.

Haven't noticed any performance issues, though.

the new update hit both my pcs and both of them had issues.

my main pc would no longer connect to the internet and no matter what was changed it didnt fix it.....had to roll back the update  and viola.....internet.

2nd pc now suffers BSOD power state failure and ive been working on its cause for 3hrs now and want to punch M$ employees

it wont let me rollback and restore points are all missing.......

I have windows 10 and it' glitches up all the time...

the 2nd pc ended up having to be reformatted as nothing else worked and started freezing at start up. i tried "resetting this pc" option but it actually made it worse and it would black screen right after bios.

of course it downloaded 1803 again with no other option and i noticed something, the moment google chrome was loaded and installed the pc blue screened and shut down. chrome was deleted and the pc worked fine for the next hour with no issues. today i installed steam and booted up a few games and they ran with no issue either.

so maybe it was chrome the entire time? i have no idea. but at least this pc is working again at the moment.

in further news since the 2nd pc was being reformatted i ended up overclocking it to 4.2ghz as i apparently forgot to boost it when i changed motherboards.....so no more 3.2ghz stock crap speeds. now games can run decent again on this dinosaur.
