Black Screen (No login prompt) after latest update
I installed the latest preview update this morning (I'm on the beta channel) and now all I see is a black screen after the BIOS splash. The caps-lock and other key combinations don't seems to work. There is a very brief flash of a CMD window (with no text) before the blackness.
My machine is a late-model Lenovo X1 Extreme.

- nullmanCopper ContributorI finally was able to reset using local files on the third try.
I will be exiting this program for sure. - nullmanCopper ContributorStill troubleshooting:
Safe Mode will boot, no problem.
Safe Mode with Networking leads to a boot loop - nullmanCopper ContributorFrom the recovery options:
Attempt to roll-back updates fails with message "Reset your PC instead"
Reset attempt fails with "Could not download files"
Safe mode is the same (black screen after BIOS and before login prompt)- nullmanCopper Contributor
If I leave it sitting it appears to go into a reboot loop.
