Microsoft released another cumulative update, KB4524147, for the Windows 10 operating system on October 3 to resolve printing problems caused by the previous update.
However, as you probably guessed, this update did not work as planned. Microsoft, apparently, continues to release problematic Windows 10 updates one after other.
At a recent presentation of the first Surface smartphone with two screens on Android and other interesting new products, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said that Windows is no longer the most important area for Microsoft.
“One gets the impression that Microsoft during the reorganization mainly “recouped” on a team of QA-testers, dismissing most of them. There have been too many problems and flaws in Windows 10 updates recently. At this point we’re starting to wonder if Microsoft is pranking Windows 10 users? ”, – write reporters TomsHardware.
On September 26, a cumulative update was released under the number KB4517211, designed to fix muffled sound in games and other problems. However, after installing it, many users encountered problems in the operation of printers, especially with HP models.
On October 3, Microsoft released a new cumulative update number KB4524147, which was supposed to, among other things, to solve the printing problems created by the previous update. Nevertheless, as most have already guessed, this update turned out to be a new headache for users. Reportedly, after installing KB4524147, some users broke down the Start menu. More specifically, with each attempt to open the Start, a critical error message pops up.
At the same time, some complained about the impossibility of installing the update, while others wrote that printing problems persisted even after installing the update.

The official support forum also has reports of other errors related to KB4517211. In particular, users complained about problems with Windows Desktop Search and VMWare Workstation. Thus, simply avoiding the latest cumulative updates is no longer enough; now a couple of the previous ones may contain all kinds of uncorrected problems.
The most interesting thing is that the corresponding update page KB4524147 on the support site says that Microsoft does not know about any problems with this update.
On October 8, Microsoft released the next major Windows 10 update, which included, among other things, algorithms for more efficient use of the processing power of multi-core processors. Just taking into account the latest news, you can’t be sure that this update will not cause any new problems.
