Hello everyone. I have an HP Omen Desktop and my wife has an HP Envy Laptop and both are running Win10 22H2. Our computers are fully up to date with no problems until now. Since this update KB5001716 for Windows Update Service Components was downloaded and installed on our computers on 10/4/23 which took no more than about 3 seconds to do so like it was there one moment than gone the next which I suppose is MS way to stealthily install this update. Now we are getting this type of error about once a day which I am sure is being caused by MS stealth update KB5001716 as they did not appear until the update was installed. See Below:

I have run SFC which has no problems. I have run Windows update troubleshooter and no problem seen. Norton and Malwarebytes scans were all normal. Getting App updates from MS Store. I do not know what good this KB5001716 except to try and force Win10 users to install Win11 or install Win11 without a users permission at a later date. My computers are eligible for Win11 but if I want Win11 I will buy a new computer with it preinstalled and not install it on my computer I have now and because of all the problems I have read about here in the Forum of people that did so. I am waiting to see what other problems this KB5001716 update will cause next. I feel the Devs should be informed about this update and the error it is causing now and corrected in a subsequent update or remove it.

Respectfully,

Don

    Hello OP,

    I have gotten the same error with my pc, and I am fairly sure it is my graphics driver. I have a screenshot of the error below, and can provide the file with the error log if needed. When I get the error, it disables my graphics card and backscreens my computer and kills my gpu, causing any game to crash in the style of repeating the same second of sound (not even Inegrated graphics kick in). I am using the below PC, with an AMD Radeon 6500 XT graphics card. I know that before, when I would use the AMD driver from their website, my computer would later do this, but would also try to "update" the card to their own driver, and fail at doing it. I could see in the logs that it had tried to update the driver itself. If you need more information, feel free to reach out.

    Thank you,

    Wesley

    Windows told me it was my graphics driver, too. So i uninstalled it and reinstalled it . Interestingly, it replaced the Nvidia display adapter driver with a Microsoft one. This is normal, having done this a thousand times over the years I don't even notice anymore. Except this time I did. It was taking a long time to install what I had thought was the standard MS display adapter, but wasn't. At least I didn't think it was the regular one.

    Well, my antivirus didn't recognize it either. It had informed me the driver Windows was attempting to install was not certified and had no signature and so it highly recommended me to halt the install. I did, then it had installed the latest Nvidia driver and I thought the matter dealt with.

    That had (possibly) fixed the crashing to a BSoD, but now everything just dumped to desktop.

    That's where I am at now. Thinking of hitting a restore point then ignore this latest Windows Update.

    Thanks for replying!

    Respect your choice!

    Me too, my computer hardware is not eligible to upgrade to win11, plan to use win 10 all the time.

    Yesterday, I allowed the system update, so I also updated KB5001716, which is currently working fine.

    As an alternative, if you like, try the following to see if you can fix it

    1. Complete clean start-up and eliminate other disturbances:
    1. Right-click Start Menu → RUN → Input:

    msconfig (press Enter)

    Click on "Services" above

    Check Hide all Microsoft services below (be sure to select)

    Click “Disable All”

    Then right-click Start Menu → Task Manager.

    (Click on "Details" at the bottom),

    Click on "Start" at the top,

    Right-click the item whose Status is displayed as Started and select Disabled. (Disable all startup items.)

    1. Then click Restart
    1. Repair system files in clean boot environment

    Right-click the Start button (the button of the Microsoft icon) →"Windows PowerShell(I)(Administrator)(A)" → Enter:

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth (press Enter)

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth (press Enter)

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-image /RestoreHealth (press Enter)

    SFC /SCANNOW (press Enter)

    good luck！

    ¡Hola! Buenas tardes. Deberías de desinstalar la actualización desde el menú Inicio > Configuración > Windows Update > Ver historial de actualizaciones. Luego ejecuta el Símbolo del sistema como Administrador y ejecuta el comando "wuauclt.exe /updatenow" y deja que el sistema descargue e instale todas las actualizaciones necesarias.

    Thanks but no thanks as that will not solve anything and our computers are up to date.

    To the latest commentator/poster: for what it's worth, I have an ASUS TUFF desktop. It may or not be relevant, but you stated that you had an ASUS TUFF laptop, so I figured I'd just put it out there in case you get nowhere with your issue. The only thing I was left to do was format the systems disk, reinstall windows and hope for the best. I did that, and so far so good. I slowly did the windows updates, however. I did them one by one (as best I could, sometimes they would pop up in multiples).

    Good luck
