There's your problem. Roll back the updates. Microsoft's already said that updates are for beta testers. We blocked updates at our office and just firewall/IDS the hell out of everything. Pretty stable with the only issues coming up with user applications.

All of which is to say ill be jumping back into the warmth embrace of an Apple laptop this holiday. Just too bad the ARM machines wont have been released by then.
It's not any better on the fruit side of things either. This MacBook Pro was very temperamental about going to sleep or shutting down. Absolutely frustrating. Apple was of no help. I've mostly got it solved now, but every now and then it gets stuck and refuses to do anything.
