Hey there, I've noticed your gaming PC acting up again. It keeps reverting back to the previous Windows version after updates, even though the overclock seems fine now. At first I thought it was because of instability from overclocking, but it just restarts randomly after a shutdown. Also, the overclock is stable—passed 20 tests with FurMark. The issue seems to happen about every fifth time, which is really frustrating. Once the new version is installed, everything works perfectly, but Windows still rolls it back. Any suggestions on what might be causing this? You might want to try updating the hardware or using a different installation method, but I’m not sure how to remove the old Windows image. Your specs look solid though—x5660 CPU, 12GB RAM, GTX 1050 Ti, and a solid SSD.

you can always turn off the Windows update service whenever you like, so it won’t run unexpected changes. Just stop it while you want and re-enable it later if needed.

It would help if the update brought me back to a version that supports my 1050 Ti. It also slows down significantly before the upgrade and the Start Menu won't launch. Appreciate the advice!

I believe I discovered the answer. I ran Windows Disk Cleanup to delete the "previous windows installation." That should resolve the problem.
