That article is for Windows XP -- they still haven't answered this problem on Windows 10?
When they do Major Updates (ie 1709 -> 1809) why not just mount a signed read-only .wim on top of the '\Windows' directory, and overlay changes on that?
IIRC part of the update process involves scanning the entire drive for incompatible software, installed or otherwise, can they stop that at this point, and alert/detect on launch?
- lozenge 8y agoSorry the link was incorrect. I think the actual reason is dlls are versioned individually and it needs to pick the superset version on each update, including optional fixes installed that may depends on hardware etc. Can't find the right link though. They did make some big improvements recently but it will only apply from the next update.
