Win10 1607 update KB3194496 into the reinstallation failure infinite loop solution

On September 28, Microsoft sent the cumulative update KB3194496 for the Slow and Release Preview channel users, the upgraded version number is Build 14393.222. Make Windows 10 installation disk, backup data, format hard drive, install operating system … … these are as smooth as flowing, really make people feel comfortable, and the anniversary update is completed smoothly. However, I never imagined that I was killed in the Windows 10 Version 1607 cumulative update (KB3194496)” on this patch, it will only appear in a few minutes, "Unable to update, the installation is being undone".

I want to ignore this, but the new problem comes: after the installation fails, it will enter the "re-installation failure" in the endless loop, there is no solution.

It's a ghost of the XblGameSave” folder and its associated registry items!

Go directly to C:\\Windows\\System32\\Tasks\\Microsoft\\ and delete the “XblGameSave” folder completely.

Then go to the Registry Editor and find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\WindowsNT\\CurrentVersion\\Schedule\\TaskCache\\Tree\\Microsoft\\XblGameSave item

Delete the entire folder , then install “ KB3194496” This patch will no longer have a problem with failure.

To avoid the failure of Microsoft's official patch installation, you must not make too deep optimization of the system, especially with third-party software key, assistants to clean up the registry and system files. Just like the many techniques introduced by enthusiasts, they are based on the tools of the system itself, closing some services, changing the registry, scheduling tasks, starting, and so on. No matter how you change it, it will not cause the system file to be missing, so that the new patch can't find the associated file during the installation process, or the wrong option is loaded. Third-party software, in order to achieve certain purposes, regardless of those, can use a one-size-fits-all approach will never go "think" why there is such a file in this place.

So before you use the third-party software toss the system, you must think twice, do not move things in the registry, Windows folder. Thank you for reading, please pay attention to this website for more content!
