Ok in the "useable if you delete half of it" sense

It's just eaten itself into a brick, ボギニャジヴァ, which is exactly what I predicted it'd do when it tried to install a feature update

Rookie mistake

Only install security updates

Thanks for that, Xav, sadly it's not possible to prevent it

Pirate LTSB, that's a server version made exactly for that purpose

long term service branch, I believe

long term service branch, so it runs for 24 months rather than 12. Ace

I have never updated windows and then experienced bricks

Someone should bend Bill Gates over and fuck him up the arse with a rusty pitch fork

There are companies still running server 2003, no biggie

It tried twice to install it's feature update, twice it failed, rolled back, and in doing so fucked the audio

lol

that's impressive

I'm inept at computers and this never happens

This second time it fucked the audio so badly it won't reinstall, and you can't even view failed updates since it lots up that process when you try

I just let it update and it runs fine afterwards

It's fucked

It's not fine afterwards

it's OK

Reminds me of that time a certain PC decided that it won't update automatically to one of the creators' kits and half a year later we found out because it was missing a minor update dependent on that creators' update <:Veemote:501103628883591188>

maybe your hardware is the problem, bucko

Nope

Hardware is fine

Maybe you should've use propane?

SHould have attached the propane tank to Bill Gates urethra, then set fire to his ears and burned him like a candle

It ain't bricked...https://www.drivereasy.com/knowledge/how-to-enter-safe-mode-in-windows-10/#w1

poor bill

you can disable a whole lot of nonsense win10 has https://github.com/Disassembler0/Win10-Initial-Setup-Script

I don't need safe mode, Redxl, i'm in normal mode now, but my sound is fucked and it won't install 1909

you people give up too easily, how will you possibly survive the coming revolution

then I'm right- you ain't bricked

Operating systems often have case-by-case quirks depending on how assholish the various services feel

Has no audio, which renders it 98% useless

Cpu? @Eccles

And speakers?

And audio driver name?

@Day Wither nice, a more noob friendly version of the installer customizer

I'm bookmarking that
