Just like the rest of the world, I was really thrilled about the Win 10 April 2018 update. I downloaded it and installed it, but after updating to April 2018, the Windows Explorer would restart every couple of seconds, making my laptop unusable. I searched online for solutions, but nothing helped much. Eventually, I had to revert to the original Win 10 version, which I got via an HP recovery disk (since it was a HP laptop). Now, whenever I turn on my laptop, I disable the forced update services (through services.msc) to avoid another update and prevent further issues. I’m wondering if the bug causing Explorer to restart has been fixed by Microsoft. Should I still update my laptop or stick with the old version? I don’t find clear instructions online, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. My laptop is an HP Pavilion Notebook AB125AX.

I'm using version 1803 and everything is working smoothly. No problems with Windows Explorer restarting on its own.
