Windows 10 Update KB3163018 Failed

[Jurchen King]

This update failed to install on my system. System rebooted multiple times and took very long to undo changes.

I read online that many people's system were screwed up after installing this update i.e. some programs/peripherals stopped functioning.

Has anyone here successfully installed this particular update without bad effects?

Right now, my OS build is 10586.164. It's not the latest build. But it's stable and I like to keep it that way. I don't need to have the most updated build, especially when Microsoft updates have the notoriety of creating new issues whilst fixing others.

Well, I managed to bypass the problematic KB3163018 update. What I did was to clear the Windows Update cache. When I click Windows Update again, there were new updates which fortunately installed successfully.

The good news is my build is now 10586.494, which is the latest. The bad news is KB3173428 has replaced KB3163018 as the new problem . When I checked installed updates history, it said KB3173428 failed to install because of 0x80073712 error.

Anyway, does anyone feel the latest build makes the system slightly slower than previous build ?

I won't update until after 2 Aug for the new 1607 build.
