Hi,
If neemo's suggestions don't do the trick, you may have to do some more aggressive software repairs as well as hardware testing. First, your AU update was from Aug. 2nd; over 2 months ago. You then updated to one of the intermediate AU updates in late August or early September. Take a look here, at this screenshot showing the latest AU version;
v1607 b14393.321. Since you don't have that you don't have
the latest version.

View attachment 33756 If you don't have the above 3 updates in your Update History, there is something wrong with your computer or your Windows or both!
What are the hardware specs on your computer?
You could try to run standard windows repair utilities including
CHKDSK, SFC, DISM, and W10 IN-PLACE UPGRADE. This has helped other people suffering from unwanted changes due to the new AU updates which are coming out new every 1-2 weeks from MS.
In the meantime, I'd suggest that you consider making an Image Backup of your system to an external hard drive using one of the free Image backup softwares we have tested on W10 such as
Macrium Reflect, Acronis TrueImage, and EASETodo. Since the new AU's are causing so much havoc in W10 systems, this is a really good idea and several of us here who are W10 Insider Testers we use this on our Test Machines, so we are only a couple of hours away from putting our machines back in good order by rolling our machines back to the pre-AU state. This is often required as System Restore doesn't seem to do a good job of unscrambling damage done to windows by the AU udpates.
In the meantime you can take a look at these 2 methods for disabling unwanted changes to your drivers from the AU here:
How to temporarily prevent a driver update from reinstalling in Windows 10
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3073930#bookmark-1607 Windows Update Delivery Optimization: FAQ https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-10-windows-update-delivery-optimization We are still experimenting with these 2 methods, but they are slowing down the AU updates coming in, but not totally stopping them, which no one has figured out how to do yet. This is why I'm recommending that you take the extra effort to create Image Backups of your system.
In the meantime,
if none of our tips resolve your problem, you may have to consider doing a Clean Install using bootable W10 DVD or USB media via ISO file from Microsoft's website here: Windows 10 Please post back and LIKE this Post if this solution worked for you so we can share that information with our other forum users who might have the same problem. Thanks. Hope that provides you with some help.
