As users complain of blue screens of death, deleted files and reboot loops, here’s what you need to know about this Windows 10 update.

Microsoft asks that any users experiencing problems use the Windows + F keyboard shortcut, or select Feedback Hub from the Start menu, to provide feedback so it can investigate.
