over the last week or so, i've had 4 pc's fail to complete windows updates successfully.
on startup the pc attempts to install windows updates, fails, reverts the changes, reboots, attempts to reinstall updates, fails, reverts changes, reboots, attempts to reinstall updates, fails, reverts changes, reboots and so on.
booting into safe mode or safe mode with networking works, but there is seemingly no way to halt the forced updates which are causing the pc to boot loop when booting normally.
i've had one of our users try the microsoft fixit tool for windows update, found here - https://support.microsoft.com/mats/windows_update/en-us?entrypoint=lightbox with no success.
how can i stop the update process so i can figure out which update is causing the problem? or at the very least, stop the updates from bootlooping our pc's, as the last time i tried to fix this, i ended up having to do a full re-install as stopping the windows update services via msconfig had no affect on the updates installed on boot.
i've also tried reverting to a last known good configuration - no joy. system restore - no joy.
help please!
