Microsoft Windows 10 October update giving HP users BSOD
Found on The Register on Thursday, 11 October 2018
Microsoft on Tuesday posted KB4464330 (Windows 10 1809 Build 17763.55) in an effort to halt the damage done by last week's Windows 10 version 1809 update, but it hasn't quite worked.
"After doing updates, this machine blue screens with the error message WDF_VIOLATION," wrote an individual identified as "PhilBJSPC." "I cannot boot to safe mode and it does not allow me to do a system restore before the updates have gone through. …"
"This is why auto-installed updates are so dangerous," observed Steve Bellovin, a professor in the computer science department at Columbia University, via Twitter.
So to sum it up, this autoupdate messes up when Intel audio is present, deletes userdata and bluescreens on HP and DELL machines? Is Microsoft testing at all? These are not rare edge cases with obscure hardware.
