But, having had big issues [for me] after Win10 crashed for me a couple of years ago, I can empathize with your frustration.

FWIW, my Win11 has been a little wonky since the last couple of updates.  I haven't done February yet. 

I guess I am amazed that you called Microsoft and actually got a person--a live person---to help you.
I used the chat feature.

I got real people almost instantly.  Both were helpful.

sadly the fix… rollback before the update… did not fix whatever the update actually did…

According to Microsoft:
 

Microsoft knows this issue. It even admits that it is not a bug. Microsoft thinks automatically downloading big software updates are necessary for security purposes and stopping hackers from exposing your files and information.


I think it is something that needs to be resolved between the industry and us low-level consumers...  but Microsoft wants to OWN the operating system running on your computer...

Imagine how bad this could be for some... like you.  

Keep install media for your favorite fallback OS... and prepare (backup) your favorite programs so they can be restored after the OS kicks it.

I keep backups of my backups… no joke… on my real systems. 

this is basically overpriced gaming rig so no need.  All the games are on steam. Windows is free download.

nolvus I asked and no one new how to back it up… it’s a bunch of mods for Skyrim with a custom installer. Amazing how wonderful Skyrim looks with all these mods. But it too is just a matter of redownloading.
