Failure to Start, Error Msg [wdfilter.sys]
Windows Insider
First opportunity to update on the road.
Attempted to roll back to previous build but don't remember my password, have been using PIN#. Though password of my MS account is same as network device (laptop), an assumption that has proved true before but may have just been my using the same password for both.
I have an endless green screen reboot, can't login, and can't get back to previous version. I would prefer not resetting my machine if possible.

RAM: 8 GBI had the same issue. It'seems I fixed it by going to C:\Windows\System32\drivers and renaming the driver to wdfilter.old.
Renaming to wdfilter.old worked for me too. Remember to change your profile to grant full control/access beforehand then restart after renaming.
