Windows 10 Updates
Almost every time Windows 10 automatically installs an update, I have problems..Has anyone used the Windows Update Blocker program to stop them from automatically updating at the most inopportune time...

Since I believe the update is coming from a "trusted source", I have found turning off my firewall makes the installations go much smoother. I'm sure the possibility of getting a bug by doing that is there but as soon as the "trusted" update is done I turn the firewall back on after reboot.
If you are using the Windows firewall, no need to turn it off for updates. It is already programmed with exceptions for the Windows Update service.
On the flipside of that security coin, anyone is using a 3rd party antivirus, it might be a good idea to temporarily disable it before doing updates. I have seen that cause plenty of problems.
