Hello, I am writing this to complain a bit, discuss, and warn others about the KB5036893 update.
This has so far been the worst update I have installed on Windows 11, a total disaster.
I have read about problems from many other users, and from what I see, this update brings a large number of errors, not just one specific one that happens to everyone, in my case, this is what happened to me:
The whole problem starts when you try to have your drivers updated to the most recent version, the system stops working completely, after restarting, no application wants to open, you can’t even turn off the computer except by unplugging it from the power strip or wherever you have it plugged in.
The worst thing this update has caused me was a BSOD with the CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED error. Having to forcibly reinstall Windows 11, because not even doing a BCDREBUILD with my USB with a Windows installation could fix the problem.
I even thought it was a problem with my hardware, I have been checking my computer for two weeks and looking for any kind of failure, I mainly thought the problem was my disk, but nothing.
That said, it turns out that if I uninstall this update, everything returns to normal, without any problem.
Is Microsoft aware of the problems with this update? Because I have seen more users complaining and even articles on the internet about news and problems with this version.
Sorry if this message sounds offensive, but I would like you to share your experiences and opinions with this update.
---------------------------------------------------If you are having problems with this update, I would definitely recommend uninstalling it. And here I got some solutions for some special occasions:
-------- In case Windows Update updates automatically --------
You can use this link to download the “wushowhide.diagcab” application that should fix this problem.
------ If the option to remove the KB5036893 update does not appear in Windows Update, this might help you ------
You can try using this command in CMD:
wusa /uninstall /kb:5036893
---------------------------------------------------I hope this helps you.
-------------------------------
If you experience what happened to me, where you get a blue screen of death, and it’s impossible to recover the Windows boot, you will need to use a USB to reinstall it, and then pause the updates before Windows Update automatically updates, then use the “wushowhide.diagcab” application that I left in the part above.
Sadly, I've seen people saying not even reinstalling Windows can fix the problem, so I hope is not your case.
-------------------------------
Again, I hope this helps, and also, I would like to hear your opinions on this.
