windows 10's update turned dell laptop in brick
Last security update on Jan 13th broke my laptop.
Every program keeps freezing and doesn't do anything. Even when I open task manager it may run for a minute but soon it will freeze, and can't even end task.
Only thing that is working is my browser. Yesterday I managed to reinstall windows using a USB and it was working again. While i was away, it forced an update and once again the same issues arise.
laptop is too old to install 11, and going to try and reinstall windows again.
There a way I can turn off the windows 10 update before this happens again? Don't know if there is a patch to address this soon.
