When I do a search in these forums for "Windows Update 1709" I see a number of different comments about problems. So I'll just add mine.
I got forced an upgrade the other day, and when it rebooted, right after the Dell logo, the whole screen went blank. Occasionally, when I clicked the touchpad I would get a brief flash of a screen of white noise, but it was not repeatable in any regular way.
So, I went back to the previous version (1703) and everything worked again. At that time I didn't know how to prevent an upgrade, so it happened again. And again, the same thing happened. And again, I went back to the previous version.
I learned that I could turn off the automatic upgrade by disabling the service, so I've done that.
Who is responsible for fixing this? Microsoft or Dell?
Inspiron 13-7359
You cans postpone feature updates on the Settings-Updates Advanced Settings. That should keep it at bay for a couple of months.
I don't have an experience with the 7359 but maybe someone else will have.
Hi, may i know how did you turn off the auto upgrade and did it work? Because i turned off my windows update but it keeps popping up everyday and i have to turn it off everyday
Do you have the latest video driver installed?
Also the latest UEFI BIOS update?
