Is there anyone who can tell me what the hell is wrong with Windows 8.1 and updating the system. I am on so many reformatted reinstalls I am losing count, and each time Windows gets more broken. Have MS put something out there on purpose to fundamentally break the system and force users, through utter utter frustration, to upgrade to Win 10?
Every effort to activate/run system restore runs into problems
Windows Update is either hanging or it is failing to install updates: Code (800F0922)
The machine was bundled with McAfee and Norton - I have uninstalled both yet McAfee is still running in task manager and I cannot disable Norton from Start Up programs
I am getting (0x80070003) messages whenever I try to do anything
UpdateTroubleshooter "fixes" problems but then updates still won't install
Every update requires an incremental previous update first - and these are all "not applicable to your computer"
At reboot the "running diagnostics/repairing keep failing
All I want to do is get to the point where KB2919355 installs properly ... and then hopefully ... hopefully ... everything will be back up and running again.
Has anyone else been through all of this insanity just to get Windows working as an operating system, and allowing you to just get on with doing stuff?
