📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses troubleshooting a Windows 10 Pro application that was functioning correctly on an earlier system image but is now behaving erratically after updates. The original poster seeks a way to identify which specific update may be causing the issue and how to disable it selectively. The responses clarify that due to Microsoft's cumulative update model, isolating and removing individual updates is difficult, and suggest examining error messages and logs to diagnose the problem instead.

I have an application that worked on my image backup from May. However, today, it is behaving erratically. Is there way to isolate which particular update is responsible for this? And, how do I selectively turn it, and only that one, off?

Merged threads since it's the same question. Microsoft changed their update model. What used to be individual updates is now a single cumulative update.

Broken dependencies, updates, security software, malware, corruption are just a few ways an application can break. It's best to start with any error messages or look in the application event log for error codes.

Short of removing one at a time and testing there really isn't a way

I am running Windows 10 Pro. A certain application had been working flawlessly all these years. It works perfectly on my May 2021 drive image backup. However, today, it behaves erratically. What is the best way to isolate any particular update(s) that might be causing this issue so that I can turn it off? Is there a software that can accomplish this? Can I selectively install updates, and if so, how?
