• Win10 update crashing other, simultaneous installations?

    Interesting email from CH:

    I would be interested to see if other people have a similar experience.

    I recently did testing with a Virtual Machine running Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 4, which is the server equivalent of Windows 10 v 1511.

    The build version for Server 2016 TP4 is the same 10.0.10586. They even get the same updates.

    While installing other software, the installer did not complete correctly because, and this is from memory, ‘there is another restart pending’.

    I immediately went to Windows Update and found that there are updates installed waiting for a restart while concurrently I was trying to install something else.

    For those who are not aware, Windows Server 2016 TP4 has the same Automatic Update behaviour out-of-the-box like Windows 10.

    Any thoughts or similar experience?
