I seem to remember “Restore” being an option?

Yes you can do that Ron and go back to a previous version depending when the update was done.

So if it all goes belly up you can start in safe mode

"Safe mode" not heard that for a decade

Is “Safe Mode “ still an option?
I suspect from your reply it’s long gone

I thought safe mode was the little packet tucked away in the back pocket

Odd to come across this issue (which has been troublesome for me) here of all places!
#1 KB5004237 isn't the optional update - but it failed on one of my machines and there is a lot of evidence online that it has been troublesome for many.
#2 The optional package failed on the same machine...but my money is on KB5004237 being the root cause as it failed first and predated the optional one.
#3 Ironically the machine that isnt taking the updates is very new and has the fewest and least complex apps installed -a Dell XPS13 9310. I'm hoping that this months main 'roll-up' update will fix the problem - otherwise it'll be back to a fresh install

Thanks for the replies, I have a Dell XPS 15 which is around 2 years old, just holding off this update for the moment, unsure if there is a patch due out this week.

Just seems to be a few issues with this update when trawling the net.
