AskWoody LoungerHello, I don’t know what’s going on with the cumulative update KB4284880 and the Flash update KB4287903 but they are needed by none of my LTSB 1607 SCCM clients (4) and I get the error “The update is not applicable to your computer” when trying to install them manually via the catalog.
OK I figured it out : I missed KB4132216…

AskWoody LoungerMay 22, 2018 at 12:52 am in reply to: Have you seen this? Win10 1803 error: “C:…systemprofileDesktop is not available” and an empty desktop #193545Hello,
I can’t recall if it was on 1803 but I faced a similar issue 1 month ago on someone else’s computer.
I noticed that instead of autologging the user account the computer was opening the session under the system account context hence the error message.
I then created another admin account, created the folder C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\Desktop (don’t know if this one helps), rebooted the computer then was able to open a session with this newly created account. I ran a checkdisk, rebooted the computer then was able to open a session with the original user account with its own destop back.
Hope this could help.
