Hello everyone, I’m facing an issue with several computers on my home network after recent Windows updates. They display a black screen with spinning white dots when I reboot. Microsoft support hasn’t provided any guidance yet. Key points: different machines and models, some running in virtual environments on ESXi, all using Windows 10 Pro—Windows 10 Enterprise machines are working fine even after updates. Troubleshooting points point to joining a domain as the main cause. I’ve disabled all group policies and other custom settings. Please don’t suggest avoiding domains unless it’s necessary for specific devices. I’m trying to find a solution or a way to prevent this, as my current laptop is at risk of failure. Need advice on stopping this situation.

Do you have wsus enabled? Revert backups, halt the updates, and verify the new versions prior to deployment.

Certainly, I’ll consider it a preventive measure. I’ve restored from backups on both desktops and virtual machines. Your note about laptops having system restore enabled is helpful—I may add laptops to the backup process going forward.

Ensure WSS is properly configured for your domain and business operations.

Sure, I can take them off the site for a while until the bigger problem is resolved.

Disconnect the power source and restart... If this doesn't resolve the issue, switch to the installation media and perform a system restore.
